This crazy and challenging time we find ourselves in may seem overwhelming and too much at times. Life is not often fair and comes complete with complex issues. I desire to hear your story and come alongside you to develop the skills necessary to overcome adversity in your life.

I have found success with clients through the use of cognitive behavioral therapy along with dialectical behavior therapy, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, internal family systems, and person-centered approaches.

"Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance." "Letting go" is often the best form of acceptance. If you struggle with holding on to grief, depression, anger, anxiety, frustration, etc... I am here to help. Experiences can lead to negative expectations & perceptions of self and life. I work with clients to accept negative experiences without accepting those experiences as their value and/or identity. We work together, in a caring and safe environment, to identify barriers in life and learn and implement skills that improve mental, emotional, and behavioral health, as we begin the process of living a Quality Life.

I have been a therapist since 1978. I taught undergraduate and graduate Psychology courses at Ottawa University (11 years) and Rio Salado College (17 years).I specialize in OCD and obsessive sexual behaviors but have treated nearly every type of client and diagnosis over the past four decades. I'm told I'm personable and that people feel comfortable with me immediately. I'm a good nonjudgmental listener and I believe that counseling should be a deep but intriguing investigation - not a painful one.

Now accepting New Clients via Telemedicine! Do you know a child, adolescent or teen demonstrating symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance use, or any life changes? These life struggles can lead to Anxious and Depressive Symptoms (sx's) that may seem overwhelming at times.

My first priority is to offer a professional, safe, and comfortable environment to explore whatever concerns you may be having and to develop a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship from which to provide therapy. As a former military psychologist (2001-2006), I had very broad and diverse exposure to many mental health conditions. I quickly learned to implement a variety of approaches to address the unique needs of my clients. My aim is to provide treatment tailored specifically to each client. No two people are exactly alike and their therapy shouldn't be either. Above all, I want to help you create lasting change and improvement.

Thank you so much for looking into help for yourself or a loved one. My goal is to support every client in their pursuit of any healthy goal or change they wish to achieve. Every person deserves to live a fulfilled life (whatever that means to you), but anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief/loss, etc sometimes make that life seem unobtainable. I believe that with consistent and nonjudgmental support, every person can overcome those obstacles to obtain the life they deserve. *Online booking available by clicking WEBSITE button* Please reach out.

We can all benefit from the support therapy offers from time to time. Some reasons people come to me are: struggling in their romantic relationship; past experiences continually impact their current life; reliving past failures; feeling disconnected, stressed, anxious, stuck, or unloved; experiencing a loss, and needing someplace safe to connect; feeling out of control in their life; having difficulty reaching goals; or want to feel more joy, connection, and love in their life.

My ideal client wants to grow and heal from the past. However, sometimes the past can hold you down. Anxiety, addiction, deep fear, stress, depression, and other unhealthy behaviors can be signs you may be stuck in the past or in a lot of pain. Many of my clients have often experienced events in their lives such as grief and loss, trauma, unhealthy relationships, divorce, neglect, feeling lost and empty, and/or deep rejection. I work very hard to support my clients by challenging them, validating them, and holding them 100% accountable.

I feel I am most helpful when working with clients who have a sense of where they want their lives to go, who acknowledge the obstacles that confront them, and who are willing to form a collaborative relationship with me to address those challenges and apply the principles and practices that will produce the desired outcomes in their lives.
