I work with a number of different presenting issues including men's issues, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, life changes, couples and those who are dealing with substance use and other addictive behaviors.
Through tele-counseling (video conferencing), I can be a non-judgmental "sounding board" to determine where you need to be in your path toward health and wellness.
People move toward health and wellness every day! I invite you to take the "leap" to pick up the phone, log-in or reach out for help from someone who is ready and willing to help.
