Do you struggle with difficult feelings, visceral memories, or relationship conflicts? Do you find yourself feeling unsupported or even rejected for your unconventional or unpopular beliefs? Today it can be difficult to find a space where you can discuss topics important to you. In a safe, nonjudgemental and supportive environment you can be heard and understood. You can feel better and do better, strengthening your emotional wellbeing.

Are you worried about communication with your partner? Do you wish that your family life was more fulfilling and easy? I can help. I provide help for individuals and families with communication, anxiety, and parenting. I am a Professional Counselor, Parent Consultant, and Speaker. Having worked with adults, teens, and their parents for thirty years, I am ready, willing, and able to help you make changes.

I regard much of 'psychopathology' as well-intended (but ineffective) efforts to contend with pain and fear, and to pursue needs and wants. So, in psychotherapy, I invite my clients to explore, identify, and take guidance from their emotional experiences, honoring their depression, anxiety, and other symptoms while finding more effective ways of living well. I also provide psychological and neuropsychological assessments.

Persons seek therapy when they experience stress, conflict, or loss that cause unhappiness and reduce effectiveness. They are affected negatively by pressure and problems at work, family, and relationships. Individuals come into therapy with their own particular needs shaped by disappointments and failures in some aspect of living in their world. With my guidance, together we create a treatment program which addresses their specific concerns. My approach is interpersonal, supportive and direct. I focus on helping my clients obtain relief from emotional distress and develop strength and awareness to deal successfully with events that confront them day to day.

I have immediate availability! Send me a message or book with me by clicking on my Website. / / Prior to working as a counselor, I worked in a demanding industry and understand the stresses that come with working a high-pressure job. I understand the importance of maintaining “work-life harmony” between family life, recreation, health, faith, and time on the job. These are the timbers, or beams, on which we build each layer of our lives. No person is an island and I believe in helping people build their natural support systems, which include family, friends, teammates, and colleagues to name a few.

I work with motivated individuals and families who are ready to address problem areas, develop insight, and identify what is of most value and meaning in their lives. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, especially as it relates to family system and relationship issues, life stressors and transitions, and substance use disorders. In addition to my clinical practice I speak nationally on these topics and work as a clinical consultant. I believe in providing quality, authentic, and clinically informed care that identifies and addresses the root causes of problems and barriers to living a more meaningful life.

In my practice, I always start with genuine empathy to create a safe, nonjudgmental space. My therapeutic approach is action-oriented and primarily present-focused. What are you doing right now that is contributing to your desired outcome? My eclectic treatment interventions pull from behavioral, cognitive, motivational interviewing, and superhero therapy perspectives. I work together with my clients to find a strategy that specifically addresses their needs. Through helping develop coping skills, healthy boundaries and positive self-talk mantras, I empower my clients to face and overcome the obstacles in their path.

Confidential phone and Zoom, Webex, and Google Hangouts video sessions available. Personal set-backs and conflictual relationships are common problems that we all can face at some point in our lives. I work with depression and mood swings, grief and loss, anxiety and worries, addictions, anger management, intimacy and sexual difficulties, and divorce adjustment. For couples, I help couples improve communication that enhances closeness, deepens understanding and reduces reactivity.

I have over 20 years of experience in the field of clinical psychology, providing both psychological evaluation and therapy services. My areas of focus include identifying clinical and educational related concerns through evaluation as well as using cognitive behavioral methods to treat a wide range of concerns. My therapy clients often request services for depression, anxiety, school and work related issues, and coping with day to day stress.

Often in an attempt to finish "unfinished" business, we reenact unresolved issues in hopes of a better outcome finding ourselves face to face with the mountain of pain looming large in our past. I specialize in treating individuals, couples, and groups struggling with addiction, compulsive behaviors, depression, trauma, and related issues. If you struggle with addiction, I use emotionally connective and psychodynamic therapy to help you reach abstinence and then recovery, pre or post rehab. If you are struggling with the out-of-control substance abuse merry-go-round, we can work together to improve your life.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I strongly believe that the relationship between the therapist and the client is imperative to the client meeting their personal goals.
