Some one that needs to clarify their path. Someone that needs to learn to love themselves a little more. Someone that is looking to make his or her life better, someone that is willing to make an effort and put some action behind it.

MY APPROACH TO THERAPY IS TO PROVIDE AN OPEN AND NON-JUDGING ENVIRONMENT SO YOU CAN EXPRESS YOURSELF FREELY. Therapy needs to be customized to fit your needs. It may be phone counseling, group, individual or couples. You may be experiencing anxiety, infidelity, depression, sexual abuse, relationship issues or some other manifestation that's affecting your life. I believe we get better with people and become worse in isolation, so let's work together to bring you a better tomorrow. My substantial experience, non-judging stance and directness allows the process to work.

Making the decision to call a therapist is scary for most of us. It is usually at a time when we feel vulnerable or things have reached a crisis point. I can help give you objective feedback so that you can understand and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. In therapy you will learn new coping skills that you can use, not just in this incident, but in future ones. You don't have to be alone as you try and figure things out. I believe I can help.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to be the lead dance partner in doing something that is inherently challenging but possible: achieving and sustaining behavioral change. Most of my clients have a greater understanding of what they're feeling, and simply need direction in regard to the how of changing those feelings and the behaviors and thoughts that orbit them. While the goals are different for each and every person, I believe that the unifying theory that connects my clients is a readiness to do hard things, and a curiosity to what that version of themselves might look like untethered from their current challenges.
