My training as a clinician has taught me to be highly attuned to individuals' needs, with a strong desire to help individuals overcome life's difficulties. Being knowledgeable about a number of treatment modalities is essential. I specialize in treating symptoms without focusing on labels. I am trained and highly skilled.

I divide my time between trauma therapy and marriage and family therapy.

I work with clients from adolescence through adulthood on topics including anxiety, depression, stress management, life transitions, relationship conflict, and identity exploration. My mission as your therapist is to create an environment in which you feel safe to share your story, develop insight and understanding, and work toward accomplishing your personal goals. I see therapy as a team effort to help you build the life you want for yourself.

I believe we need to feel it to heal it! What exactly does that mean? We all have an individual journey to navigate and the best way to attain balance is learning how to trust someone with life “lived” experiences, empathy, failures and successes. We deserve the opportunity of experiencing at least one genuine relationship with a trusted professional that will keep it real. Once we believe we are seen & heard, our self-worth shows up in unimaginable ways. I am prepared to support you along this process if you commit to showing up for you. As long as you try, change is doable and new habits will foster lasting, healthy relationships.

People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying, “soften the orange a bit on the right-hand corner. I don’t try and control a sunset.” I watch with awe as it unfolds (Rogers, 1980). In my therapeutic work over the past 15 years I have been uniquely fortunate to watch as potential and destiny unfolds for clients. In my clinical roles I fully espouse a person-centered strength-based focus and approach with clients, to the end of collaborative problem solving with your concerns and goals at the heart of our work together.

Whether we have experienced the pain of trauma, divorce, neglect, "wrong" choices, career challenges, relationship/marital issues or feelings of helplessness or hopelessness, it doesn't negate the PURPOSE for which you were created and the success which awaits you.

Are you having difficulty managing your child's behavior at home? Does your child's teacher have concerns about listening skills, impulsivity, or social awkwardness? Has your child experienced a significant change in mood, appetite, or sleep patterns?

My passion is to help strengthen the relationship between parent and child. You may feel sometimes that you and your child are having difficulty connecting to where you feel like you are not on the same page.
