The process of initiating therapy can be scary. Trusting someone you don't know isn't always easy. The truth is that life is difficult. We have all experienced sadness, loss, fear, and loneliness. Therapy can help find clarity and strength. My experience is as diverse as those I serve such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, marital counseling, and PTSD. I enjoy my work and feel blessed to be a tool for God to help those who are hurting or in need of understanding. My greatest reward comes from empowering people with the confidence and tools to make a positive change.
After 25 years in the field of mental health and supervising other clinicians, I offer an eclectic approach to a variety of life issues in mental health treatment. From cognitive behavioral therapy to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, I practice from a "client-centered" approach to design a treatment plan that is unique to my client and his or her needs.
Whatever is burdening you at this moment has led you to this research. It has led you to consider if I may be the person to help you overcome your difficulties. Should you feel like my experience or words have resonated with you, I invite you to give me a call. Don't carry your burdens alone any longer. Let's find a new way forward together.
