I especially enjoy working with individuals going through divorce, teenagers, grandparents raising grandchildren, blended families, couples striving to have a healthy relationship and anyone motivated to understand themselves.
I enjoy working with anyone who is struggling to understand themselves and their behavior. While we can not force someone else to change, changing how we react to others can often bring about change in the relationship. I see counseling as a journey. You are the driver and I am the passenger pointing out road signs. My job is not to judge but to make sure you are aware of your options and their consequences. Whether it is childhood issues, parenting skills, stress, anxiety, depression or problematic relationships, talking to an unbiased trained professional can be of great benefit.

My primary passion and area of focus is children of divorce, blended families, and healing marriages.

Then opening Anchor of Hope in 2018 to help other families.

I also provide services for clients surviving high conflict divorce such as Co-Parenting Therapy, Reconciliation Therapy, Divorce Transition for Children, Therapeutic Supervised Visitation.
I have worked with children and families for over twenty-five years and I never cease to be amazed at their resiliency. What I have learned is that children do cope with life struggles, but increasing the likelihood that they develop positive coping skills often depends on the support that surrounds them. Working with children and adults to recognize their own strengths and to learn new strategies for success remains a focus of my practice.

I know the pain of divorce, the tests and triumphs of single parenting and the joy of remarriage.
I SEE CLIENTS 18 AND OLDER for individual therapy. Sometimes all of life seems overwhelming. Other times a single event triggers intense reactions and emotions. Still other times natural life transitions – finishing a degree, changing careers, marriage, parenthood, divorce, or retirement – stir up unexpected emotions. Counseling offers an opportunity to process thoughts & feelings, evaluate current habits and build new skills, leading to improved self-respect, healthier relationships and progress toward life goals.

Our experienced and licensed therapists provide psychotherapy services to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families who struggle with interpersonal conflicts and emotional disturbances that may be inadvertently caused by substance use, domestic violence, mental illness, or transitional stages in life. We understand the ambivalent feelings individuals may have when seeing a counselor and are committed to ensuring your comfort and safety. Many of our clients are men. Our goal is to provide hope and to partner with you as we navigate the obstacles in your life. "Hope" is the feeling we have that the feeling we have is not permanent.

Life is not always easy, kind, or fair. We face challenges every day. Most of the time, those challenges help us grow. Some challenges threaten to overwhelm us. Your challenges may be personal and recent like a job loss, death, or divorce. Other times those challenges have built up over years of pain. Often those challenges involve some of our most vital relationships including our parents or spouse. In those times a trained professional can be helpful.

My experience encompasses in-depth mental health services for clients experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction, family and parenting issues, suicidality, stress, low-self esteem, divorce, and other concerns. The goal of therapy is to partner with the client in addressing and processing through mental health issues. Productive mental health care does not look the same for everyone, and so my goal as a therapist is to utilize a flexible approach to therapeutic orientation and intervention.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
