“Meet people where they are before you take them where they need to go.” That is my core approach to counseling and I look forward to building a collaborative relationship with you. If you are facing problems in everyday living, emotional needs, constant conflict with people, or facing more severe life experiences such as trauma, reach out so we can speak. The benefit of counseling is knowing you are not alone. And remember, You’re not in the past, the past is in you.

I have worked in clinical and school psychology areas for 30+ years. My work has always involved different ages, ethnicities, backgrounds who sought my help due to their personal needs and feelings, including fluctuating moods, learning, developmental and school-related concerns, behavioral/emotional adjustment, managing stress, excessive worrying, emotional hurt, and coping with life events. I have experience working with individuals, families, and groups, providing comprehensive assessments, and collaborating with other provider professionals to help achieve or facilitate positive psychological outcomes for you.

Accepting new clients now!! I work with clients who are ready to take charge in their lives and work towards improvements.

Hello and welcome to my practice. I have developed skill and expertise by providing mental health treatment in a variety of settings for over 30 years. During those years, I received ongoing training and education to develop clinical knowledge and skill to understand each unique individual. Learning through decades of experience as a valued member of interdisciplinary teams, working closely with other specialists in various settings has provided me vast and invaluable skills, resources and expertise to apply to every present moment. The modalities I utilize are backed by research and are proven effective.

With over 14 years of experience counseling individuals in their time of need, I’ve learned a lot about what is helpful and what can make the difference in the life of someone through counseling. The most central ideas in my work are 1. People are doing the best that they can…but people can change their own response and alter their environment to bring about change in their life. 2. With support, clients can develop skills necessary to address their concerns and solve their problems. 3.Change is constant and it is important to work within what is in your control.

Becoming your best self, managing natural life transitions, and staying on top of daily stressors takes work.

Through our work together, you will achieve a better understanding of yourself, helping you to alleviate distress and develop more satisfying relationships.

Well-being in large part is connected to having satisfying mutual relationships with others.
