I have been a psychologist for 30+ years, and in the past year I've transitioned to a telehealth only model, so that you can receive treatment from the comfort of your home. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I treat adults with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, trauma/abuse, adjustment disorders, and work-related stresses.

Hello! Please make sure to view my insurance/payment section before contacting. I enjoy helping people to challenge their problems, to navigate new environments/social or emotional spaces, and to create new understandings of themselves as they evolve. I enjoy working with college-age clients, single people, couples, parents, veterans (I am an Army veteran), people facing life-stage change, and anyone looking to resolve issues from their development. I often find that, regardless of a client’s complaint, there’s a little kid on the inside who needs some resolution or reassurance for them to feel safe and enough so to move on in life.

Feeling overwhelmed? Fearful? Life brings many challenges. Sometimes we hurt the ones we love the most. Sometimes, things are done to us that damage us for a long time. Things that are hard to face, but won't go away. All to often, we get busy, build up walls, become isolated, and sometimes can't find our way back without help. Faith-based counseling can help individuals and couples find their way back to their former selves, make change and repair relationships, restoring our joy and peace. Professional and compassionate counseling can help traumatized clients begin to heal again.

I love my work. You may want a quiet, protected space where you can think out loud - with the freedom to follow your thoughts to their own (surprising?) conclusions. Or you may want a more active interaction, a back-and-forth exchange to wrestle with difficult emotions and come out the other side feeling more settled and self-directed in your life.
My first job is to meet you wherever you are - wanting help with an immediate crisis, or wishing to explore a past experience that continues to haunt you.

We all want to be happy, to have a mind and heart at ease. And yet for so many of us, our minds are caught in worry about the future and regrets about the past. We feel stressed and overwhelmed. Our relationships may be fraught with conflict or distant and unsatisfying. And yet happiness is not so far away as it might sometimes seem. It is a practice that we can learn to cultivate in each moment. Therapy is no guarantee that we will always be happy, but with patience and dedication, each of us has the capacity to become happier, more loving, and more self-realized.

Life can be challenging! We all need help sometimes but it can be hard to ask for help. I want to make it easy. I’ve been a counselor for over thirty years and have helped people with many of the issues we all face at one time or another. I am not judgmental because I feel that we have more in common than what seems to separate us. I believe the most important aspect of a counseling relationship is to establish a safe space where we can connect and I can truly listen to understand your concerns and goals. From there we can sort out the issues and come up with a plan to help you get on track with living the life you want.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
