I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults with a wide array of emotional, cognitive and behavioral concerns. I am currently serving the Lake County area at Counseling and Behavioral Solutions, Inc in Leesburg but have worked in outpatient agencies, inpatient settings, and within the public school system. I feel my varied experience has equipped me to meet the client where they are in their personal journey toward emotional stability and balance, while also helping them navigate and advocate for their needs in the larger community.

Life is a roller coaster, there are so many ups and downs and it can take a toll on anyone. My goal is to provide a safe and welcoming atmosphere for my clients to be able to step outside of their reality for a second.

I am accepting new clients as of 4/15/2024. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 30 years of experience, specializing in working with the adult and senior population. I have a deep understanding of individuals and families facing various difficulties, including depression, anxiety, trauma, mental illness, loss, and grief, hospice, later life out of home moves and adjustments, independent and assisted living transitions (elder life), domestic violence, chronic and terminal illness.

One of the first things asked of me when creating this website profile was to describe my ideal client. I don't think I have an ideal client. To me that implies that I can pick and choose my client's problems, symptoms, relationships, and so forth, and it's that same individuality and variety of people and presenting concerns that I value. I wouldn't change that if I could. I meet a lot of people who don't really know what they need or cannot visualize/verbalize their true goals. Discovery can be a part of the therapeutic process.

As a State Licensed Mental Health Counselor with years of therapy experience, and several specific certifications, I can provide the level of care necessary to meet the needs of individuals who are experiencing a variety of mental disorders and or struggles with depression or anxiety as well as the stress of daily life. I also have an extensive background working with both trauma and sexual abuse and I can also assist with anger management.

My ideal client is someone who wants to and is willing to change. I want to work with you on becoming a better you. I have experience in working with children, adults and families as it relates to: behavior, relationships, grief, conflict. I have experience working in an individual, family, group and crisis setting. I have experience working with ADHD, depression, anxiety, grief, and conduct and behavior disorders, as well as family conflict. My belief is to see each person as an individual with an empathetic and non-bias perspective.

Are you going through transitions in life? Recently moved or tying to figure out what to do in retirement? Grieving after a loss? Having difficulty in your relationship? Suffering from anxiety or depression? You may have goals that you have been unable to follow through on and ready to take the next step, or need to learn to make decisions. You are not alone. I provide confidential and supportive counseling to couples and individuals who are struggling and want to feel better. I can help individuals to find their own strengths.

Do you wish you had someone neutral to talk to; someone outside your circle of friends or family; someone with whom you can express your true self without the fear of being judged? Our relationship will be one of respect, empathy, and understanding. My goal and focus in therapy is to help you find your own way and answers to your unique situations and problems. You do have the answers within yourself and I would be honored to help you find them and then implement the necessary changes to see new dreams materialize.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Like the weight of the world was on your shoulders and you couldn't balance it. Have you ever felt numb? Like nothing in the world could make you feel alive. Have you ever felt disconnected? Like no one understands who you are. Have you ever felt that the only way to cope was to turn to drugs or alcohol? Like there was no way out of the darkness. If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are like the other 43 million Americans who struggle with mental health concerns; with over half also struggling with substance abuse. You are not alone, there is help available; there is a better way.
