I believe that healing is possible and that all of us have the answers and solutions to troubling personal circumstances in our lives, but sometimes we all need a bit of guidance to find those answers. Recovery is an amazing and sacred journey that leads to self-healing, self-fulfillment, and happiness. I am a Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner, Professional Psychologist, Clinically Certified Domestic Violence Counselor, and a Human Serives-Board Certified Practitioner. I use empirically sound evidenced-based interventions to assist with your healing process. Call now for a session and see how wonderful life can be.

Since COVID, the patients I treat have been against in-person sessions. It made sense to me after they explained how convenient teletherapy was for them, how they were saving money on gas, and how they noticed a decrease in stress by not having to drive in traffic to get to my office. Makes perfect sense. Call me to schedule a teletherapy session ASAP!
Recovery is an amazing and sacred journey, one that leads to self-healing, self-fulfillment, and happiness. I have embarked upon this journey myself and know first hand the amazing rewards it offers.

Teletherapy has proven great! I do favor CBT specifically cognitive restructuring and neuroplasticity (rewiring the brain) to make positive life changes. I regularly use many other therapies as well, it just depends on which will most benefit my patient and resolution to the problem. I will help you learn how to push back against negative thoughts to begin your healthy life transformation.
