Asking for help is difficult, sometimes overwhelming. Most people are touched by anxiety, depression, relationship issues and even addiction at some point in their lives, either within themselves or a family member. I create a safe, relaxing and inviting space for you to begin dealing with these difficult, but treatable issues. Many people, particularly men, are socialized to ignore or never discuss their innermost feelings and worries. College students often struggle with questions about whom they are and whom they want to become. Parents often feel powerless to help their children. Together, we can work toward achieving your goals.

Hello. Thank you for viewing my profile. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. I believe that for counseling to be successful there has to be a good working relationship between the counselor and client. I know that for someone coming into counseling there can be feelings of vulnerability and fear. I provide a compassionate, caring, nonjudgmental, trusting and peaceful environment in which my clients feel safe to be open and honest. I would love to have the opportunity to walk with you on your journey of personal discovery, change, healing and growth.

Are you currently finding it difficult exploring your emotions? Anger? Fear? Shame? Sadness? Sometimes, does it seem that wondering about these emotions causes some anxiety and stress? Do you feel family, friends, and others don't understand? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you likely can benefit from addressing those thoughts through therapy where there is Confidentiality, Support, and No Judgement.

My ideal client is anyone suffering from chemical or process addiction (gambling, sex, food, etc) or alcoholism. Addiction and alcoholism are tremendously destructive forces that leave us feeling alone, isolated, and often defeated, but this can be overcome and recovery is possible. If you feel that addiction/alcoholism has you trapped with no escape, give me a call, and together we will find the keys to lasting sobriety. If you have ever thought that you may need to seek help for your drinking or drug use, or just need to talk, now is the time. and There is a better way to live and together we can make it happen.

UPDATE: REMOTE (TELEHEALTH) SESSIONS AVAILABLE. Therapy can be instrumental in approaching and initiating change.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative process where the client and the therapist work together to facilitate positive change. People come into therapy for many reasons. Some need to respond to unexpected changes in their lives, while others seek self-exploration and personal growth. Psychotherapy can help when coping skills are overwhelmed by guilt, doubt, anxiety, or despair. Therapy can provide support, problem-solving skills, and enhanced coping for issues such as depression, anxiety, lack of confidence, relationship troubles or marital conflicts, sexual difficulties, unresolved childhood issues, bereavement, & spiritual conflicts.

My varied work history has afforded me the opportunity to work with individuals and families facing a wide range of life challenges. I have the most experience in working with those suffering from anxiety and/or depressive disorders, coping with grief/loss, experiencing family conflict or interpersonal difficulties, or dealing with the lasting impact of traumatic experience. I primarily work with individuals but understand the role and importance of family and therefore include family members as necessary. I view my role as helping the individual to define existing problems, identify realistic goals, and actualize those goals.

Therapy is a two-way effort entailing mutual respect, responsibility, and consideration between you and your counselor. It is my belief that everyone functions perfectly within the level of their knowledge and that all individuals have the capability to make changes in their life and achieve maximum potential if they acquire the proper skills to utilize their personal resources. I will facilitate an atmosphere of warmth and trust in which you may choose to examine and change patterns or behaviors that are currently not working for you.

As a therapist, I am committed to a standard of excellence in my therapeutic professional and ethical responsibilities. My mission is to promote the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and intellectual wellness of my clients - individual, couples and families. I maintain integrity and respect in my work with clients while being a compassionate and active listener, and a messenger of hope. I bring to my practice a background in the health sciences, a wealth of life experience, and ongoing continuing education that fine tunes my therapeutic skills. My clients arrive at positive solutions that bring them the clarity and peace that they seek.

Therapy involves collaborating together to identify your strengths and to develop effective solutions to the issues, patterns, thoughts and actions you are experiencing in your life. I strive to provide clarification, encouragement, interpretation and information to facilitate you working toward your desired goals.

We all have an underlying drive to reach our maximum potential; I see therapy as a tool for uncovering that drive and finding self-actualization and my role is to encourage you in that exploration.
