I am committed to clients well-being and to helping them find the life they love living. My clients know that I care, that I am there for them, that I know who they are and where they want to be.They count on me to have the "insight," training and experience to get them there. It is an honor to be a part of my clients' lives and to see them become confident and happy with the person they are and to feel "joy." My favorite client comments are "I can do this" and "I love my life!"

Are you burned out? Are you taking care of everyone but yourself? When you're called to step into leadership, into service, or to help people, it's so easy to sacrifice your own well-being for those you serve. And it's just not sustainable. You must take care of yourself if you want to keep moving forward. I know - it's hard. Your work is so important. You can't back down. There's no time to rest. How can you justify investing in yourself when people need you?

Stress and conflict happen in all contexts (home, work, life). It becomes a problem when you are unable to resolve your conflicts and it begins to take over your life.

I have spent 37 years working with individuals, couples and families who have experienced varying levels of stress, conflict and problem-solving dilemmas in their life. I also work with addictions, parenting and conflictual relationships through referrals from private parties, the Court and The Dr. Phil Show.

Are you someone who struggles to ask for help? Often times, we try to brute force our way through our day-to-day schedule even if we are in distress or in need to speak with someone about how we are feeling. Sometimes we can allow shame or self-judgements to get in the way of talking about difficult symptoms or emotions with a professional. Being able to disclose and talk about these issues with someone who makes you feel safe and validated is so important. The process of disclosing may be uncomfortable at times, but it is not unbearable, so long as you have the proper clinician by your side!

My area of expertise is in the treatment of substance use, co-occurring disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, and trauma. My background includes working with adults, adolescents, and children. Many times our own thought patterns can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and seeking out unhealthy coping skills.

Together, we can achieve your goals by working through self-defeating patterns or past trauma and developing healthy ways of coping with the challenges in your life.

You feel anxious and it’s hard to shut your brain off. People tell you to relax, but it’s not that easy for you. Your life is going well, but there’s always something on the horizon to worry about. You’ve worked hard to get where you are, but it’s hard to sit back and enjoy it. Your standards for yourself feel too high, and you question how long you can keep this up. You tend to doubt yourself and your abilities and look to other people to reassure you. You invest a lot of time and energy into how other people feel, but end up in one-sided relationships. It’s hard to take up space, feel confident, and speak your truth.
