Are you having difficulty coping with stress or life transition? Are your relationships with your significant other, family, or coworkers less than desirable? Maybe you feel depressed or anxious. Life can be difficult at times without help from someone else. I have 15 years of experience in providing counseling and psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families from all walks of life. Let me help you discover your strengths and get things back on track.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist I specialize in helping relationships become stronger. Don't hesitate to visit with me by yourself, though. After all, your relationship with yourself is most important! I help people with a variety of concerns, including communication skills, parenting skills, divorce mediation, and mood disorders.
I have considerable experience working with military families and can help them with their unique circumstances. I also have experience with several employee assistance programs and can help you achieve proper work-life balance or cope with stress.
