CLINICAL, SPORT & PERFORMANCE PSYCHOLOGY: Mental Game Coach certified by the International Golf Psychology Association. My practice includes working with athletes, performers, and the like-minded. That "thing" of yours (pre-performance anxiety, choking, feeling like a fraud, self-sabotage, etc.) has created enough problems. Enough already. What would you be doing if that "thing" was not in your way? Imagine making that putt, rocking that assignment, nailing that performance, or enjoying the one you are with.

Your anxiety is a car on a racetrack of thoughts where the only way off is a brief pit stop for repairs. But that only delays reentry to the same circular pattern. Your mind turns familiar scenarios, images, and disasters over and over again, plunging you into stomach-clenching agony. Stress from work, family, and other relationships only make it worse. The worry and fear get so bad sometimes that they boil over into panic. The shame of losing control causes the cycle to start all over again. So you become avoidant of the people and places that seem to trigger these difficult feelings.

My approach in therapy is to respect each individual as a whole person. I believe each person knows himself or herself best. Rather than just treating the symptom(s), I attempt to get to know the person well enough to guide them into insights of the CAUSES of their problems. My ultimate goal is to help each individual achieve the healthiest level of well-being and highest developmental level of functioning. Whenever appropriate, I work with multiple members of the same family in order to strengthen the family and/or marriage.

To the untrained eye, addiction can look like a lack of willpower or weakness, and I want to help the client understand the problem as well as the solution and help them develop an escape plan long before the world closes in on them. I also believe that addiction is typically not the primary problem, but usually an attempt to solve a problem, so understanding the underlying issues that are typically rooted in trauma provides for a more complete recovery with less likelihood of relapse. I want to work with clients BEFORE it's too late, and residential treatment becomes the only option.

Finding peace, clarity and happiness isn't easy when life brings confusion, pain, loneliness and disconnection from yourself and others- and I'd like to help. There is hope for change. I know because I've been through struggles too, and because you are reading this now I believe this is your time to reach out and claim your inner power and authentic self waiting to bring you joy. To assist in your journey, I use experience together with training I receive as a therapist at The Meadows, a world-renowned treatment facility for anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and relationship issues, along with several other treatment models.
