All of us have some hard and difficult times in life and we need some help. Although this can be humbling, it usually pays off in the end. I am a very flexible and laid back person and am here to help you with whatever it is you are struggling with. There will be no judgment and we will work on what only you want to work on. I believe there is no magic answer to everything and not everything works for everybody, so it is you and I trying to figure out what works best for you.

Counselor, MA, LMHC

Sometimes things just aren’t working. Some feel emotional or have a hard time connecting with others. Some struggle to make things better but don’t always have an idea of how. These folks want to feel better and be better. They want their relationships to improve. They want to accomplish their life goals. They have the awareness that things are not working out the way they would like but are needing more insight, guidance or coaching to help things flow better. They are looking for somebody to help them to find a better way, to remove obstacles or heal from old emotional wounds. Also get “Living Your Best Self” guide on my website.

My approach is based on the science of neurobiology, the wisdom of Buddhist philosophy, a dose of humor, and the warmth we generate together.
