You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. I believe one of the bravest things you can do to achieve that is to understand your own story. Life is too short for our lives to be consumed by bad relationships, holding grudges, and letting trauma take over our lives. You deserve to be free from emotional pain as well as finding your purpose and meaning in your life. I will walk right next to you to help lift heavy weights and burdens from your shoulders. You do not have to walk this journey alone.

Navigating through life can be a rollercoaster ride, with no blueprint telling us what to do. Like a rollercoaster ride, life comes with many ups and downs, and curves in between. At times we may feel stuck or have exhausted all of our options, these thoughts are normal. My goal in counseling is to help you get unstuck and get you back on the ride we call life.

Client diversity is my favorite part of being a therapist. I am open to working with anyone, no matter what issues, needs, and goals they bring to our relationship. My ideal client is simply motivated by a desire for change and has a strong commitment to the process of self-discovery. Navigating change requires a measure of courage, and some episodes of self-discovery may be uncomfortable. My ideal client will understand that each new challenge is simply a part of the overall discovery and growth process. Clients who strive to “face the fear and do it anyway” are usually a good fit with me.

Thank you for visiting my page, I specialize in anxiety, depression and communication, especially about interpersonal, marital, and premarital relationships. My faith is grounded in the Catholic church and many of my clientele appreciate and benefit from a shared belief, but my professional religious framework does welcome and include other faiths. God willing, I will be ordained a Catholic Deacon in April, so this is the lens through which I see and interact with the world.

"Why is my life so out of control?" This is a very common question patients ask me when first entering treatment. The real question is what are the underlying root causes that is generating these challenging behaviors. Through a thorough assessment I will help you identify such areas as depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder, life stressors, etc. that may actually be driving the dysfunctional behaviors of alcoholism and/or drug abuse, marital distress, poor anger management and overall stressful interpersonal conflicts. Let me help you develop a plan of action to get your life back today.

I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is the most important thing when starting therapy. I work diligently to provide a safe and comfortable space for my clients. It is important to me that my clients experience an atmosphere of trust and empathy in building the therapeutic alliance. Through deep processing, my hope is that the unconscious may come forward and bring new realizations to help in growth, healing, and understanding while navigating your life circumstances. I believe that growth comes in the uncomfortable circumstances that we face in life.

An ideal client would be someone willing to put in the effort to change for themselves. During my internship experience, I had the opportunity to work with individuals who dealt with issues ranging from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and much more. As everyone's journey is different, their goals and needs can be similar. Everyone craves a sense of belonging, and the path to finding a place where one belongs can be tough, but with the help of a caring and compassionate clinician, the journey can become clearer.
