"Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habit. Keep your habits positive because your habit becomes your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny." - Mahatma Gandhi Our thoughts and feelings are not determined by a situation, but by our perception and interpretation of the situation. By changing our thoughts, perceptions, and behaviors we can learn to respond in a positive way, maximizing our potential for a rich, full, and meaningful life.

Life's challenges, heartaches, and disappointments don't have to be sources of unending frustrations, anger, and pain. They can also be a source of strength, growth, and transformation.

Finding the right therapist for you is the first step to unlocking the courage you have inside to get past these difficult times. I wish you well on your journey!

Life can be hard to navigate at times. I believe we can feel this way at any age; a child experiencing anxiety due to a tough divorce, a teenager coping with abuse, or an adult trying to move forward from past trauma that's keeping them stuck. I can help with that. I have over 18 years of experience and knowledge as a therapist. Much of my work focuses on assisting kids and families through difficult times, whatever their situation may be. I work with any issue that you feel is holding you up in life. My firm belief is that while therapy can be difficult, it can also be a pleasant and satisfying experience.

I deeply respect the strength and courage it takes to reach out to someone you’ve never met before and ask for help. To honor this, I begin by listening to understand not only the things you’re struggling with, but also your strengths, goals, the things you value most. You’re the expert of your own life, and I strongly believe treatment should be a collaboration in which we work together as a team to achieve your goals. With this as the starting point, together we’ll develop a treatment plan personalized to you, as well as a tracker specific to your goals to make sure we’re always laser-focused on the changes you want to make.

Unfortunately previous negative experiences with counseling can impact one's decision to seek out treatment again. Therapy isn't about walking into a room because of needing to be "fixed". Therapy is a collaborative approach that begin's with me creating a safe, comfortable, and non judgmental environment. I will always recognize the person before the behavior that we are working to change. My hope at the end of each session is to assist with enhancing your strengths to elicit long term change.

Therapy is a great opportunity to rediscover yourself and build a better future. I will help you to facilitate positive change, feelings of satisfaction and improve the overall quality of your life. Let’s work together to understand your needs through effective communication and take that first step towards wellness together.

Do you feel like your isolated, stuck, out-of-control, depressed, anxious, having difficulty relating to others, drinking/using substances too much, or just lacking a sense of direction/purpose? Do you get the sense that the world is against you or that whatever you do it’s not enough? For 20 years, I have honed my style to support personal growth by helping individuals honor/understand his/her/their style as necessary for survival, while promoting development of newer/adaptive styles that enable meaningful relationships, enhanced self-confidence, meet challenges of aging, life-transitions, grief/loss, trauma, and anger management.
