I enjoy working with individuals across the life span. I especially have a passion for working with families of all types. I have a credential as a Registered Play Therapist and advanced training in Emotion Focused Couple Therapy. What that means is that I tend to work from Attachment Theory. I believe that all individuals were meant to be attached to people in our lives and sometimes things happen that hurt that attachment. With that being said, when a client works consistently with a therapist, even severe problems can either totally resolve itself or become more manageable.

Many therapists like myself venture into the mental health field motivated by their own experiences. Growing up in a family that struggled with addictions, grief/loss, co-dependency, violence and dysfunction, I existed in life feeling lonely, worthless, and empty for too many years. I turned my life upside down and reconstructed my life based upon me as I was truly created. Living life whole, as a spiritually connected being, brought me to love, accept and respect myself. In this place LIFE IS GOOD! I know the path that leads to this place.

Making space for new things? Taking the first step is often the hardest part and therapy is no different. It begins when you make the initial phone call. A staff member will guide you through the introductory process by asking a few questions to make sure we're a good fit for each other. During our first meeting, we hope you will gain a sense of how things will get better. Therapy is a path and it takes time.

My interests include working with adolescent and adult individuals (16 y/o - 85+ y/o) struggling with obstacles to living a meaningful, purposeful and engaged life. These obstacles often present as symptoms of depression, anxiety, obsessive thinking, compulsive behavior, and substance misuse.

I began my career working in inpatient substance abuse facilities attached to hospitals. I am well-versed in groups for addiction and prefer individual counseling for issues in later recovery or dual diagnosis. I see adults and motivated adolescents in my practice. Both men and women are welcome as are couples and families. Other specialty areas are sexual abuse and mood disorders.

The Disease of addiction in being redefined as "dis-ease" which expands on meanings we typically primarily think of as substance addiction. Dis-ease is emotional, mental, and spiritual as well as physical. I might add that addiction is definitely a relational problem as well. Knowing when to intervene and deciding on intervention are points at which I start working with clients. Intervention can take place in the context of the therapy room or the traditional organized intervention. Calling for help or a brief initial consult can be the first step in turning thought and contemplation into an action plan.

Now accepting new clients for in office or Telehealth. Life transitions can be complicated. Sometimes, the most exciting changes can be the most difficult. Fear of change can result in anxiety, depression, panic attacks, acting out behaviors, or abuse of substances/alcohol. I work with clients to reduce symptoms that can often be associated with life transitions. I use cognitive behavioral, solution focused, and reality based therapies with my clients to assist in improving communication, increasing coping skills, and to enhance work, school, or home relationships.
