LIVE YOUR MOST MEANINGFUL LIFE! If you are here, you have taken an important first step towards growth, change, and improving your quality of life. I bring years of personal and professional experience to my work. I provide a comfortable environment conducive to self-exploration, personal growth, and a healthier emotional life. Using your inner strengths combined with effective therapeutic treatments (CBT and DBT), we will build and strengthen coping skills and provide solution-focused options.
The integration of clinical training and school counseling experience allows me to work closely with children and parents addressing emotional, academic, and behavioral issues. Using this combined counseling strategy, we will strengthen and promote growth and communication within the parent/child bond.
My clinical experience includes school-based counseling, crisis intervention work, and private practice. I have done extensive work with "quarterlife and adolescent crisis", midlife transitions, divorce adjustment, and relational issues.
