You can take the first step today towards the happier life you have been hoping for. Help is only a phone call away. I consider it an honor and priviledge when my clients form a connection with me and entrust me with their hopes , dreams and deepest disires for a fulfilling and happy life. I create a safe and empathetic environment for you to explore the past and present as we work together to find hope and healing for your future. You do not have to do this alone. And it’s never too late to start.
In over 20 yrs of counseling experience I've worked with many clients through a variety of interventions. I seek to create an environment of emotional safety. With children I utilize play therapy. Adults have a variety of tools to assist in therapy such as art,sand tray, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic orientation, and psychoeducation.
I offer a balanced approach between the art and science of the counseling experience I have a strong combination of empathy, education, and experience.in over 20 yrs of counseling, I've partnered with my clients to address such clinical issues as: anxiety, agoraphobia, ADHD, behavioral disorders, bi-polar disorder, depression OCD and personality disorders.
