I have been in practice for over 23 years and I have dedicated my career to providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults of all ages. My career has included work with persons suffering from Depression, Anxiety , Addiction, and Trauma as well as persons involved in the criminal justice system. Other important aspects of my practice include Athletic Performance Focus, Crisis Intervention and incident De-briefing for first responders and empowering persons to break the cycles of toxic relationships and self-destructive behaviors.

Depression, anxiety , anger, and grief are possibly the most diffiicult emotions that anyone can experience, but at some point, we all do. Confiding in someone that is understanding, nonjudgmental, and caring could prove pivotal in helping to process and overcome these emotions so that one can get back to the more enjoyable parts of life. My primary focus is for you to achieve a healthy balance. By utilizing a cognitive/behavioral approach, we will work together to challenge negative thoughts, unprocessed feelings and unwanted behaviors with a goal to gain the tools necessary to manage these emotions in a healthy way moving forward.

My greatest reward as a therapist has been helping individuals gain self-awareness and self-confidence to make changes and overcome life's challenges. I believe we can all benefit from having someone to talk to, who listens, without judgment. Taking the initial step to engage in therapy can be difficult. I attempt to provide a laid back and safe environment for clients to begin addressing issues preventing them from living the life they deserve. I pride myself on establishing rapport with my clients, at the onset of sessions, with a strong, collaborative, and therapeutic relationship, based on honesty and trust, to reach identified goals.
