I am well versed in the pharmacology and neurobiology of addiction, alternative approaches to the 12 steps, anger management, CBT, the Matrix approach to addictions treatment (evidence based) and mindfulness-based approaches.
I have worked with people from all walks of life for over two decades. I am goal-oriented, like to get to the point, and work with you to offer real-life solutions, instead of staying stuck in the past. Yes, I'm compassionate and gently curious too, but I like to get down to nitty-gritty and get you feeling better ASAP. I also have a degree in philosophy and enjoy helping people look for meaning in their lives if that is what they need to feel better about themselves

I specialize in working with children to young adults to navigate things such as autism, trauma, anxiety & depression, identity, anger management, communication, eating disorders, and school/career decisions.
Even when life is seemingly going well, our thoughts and feelings can make our days and nights a struggle. Living with mental illness or going through a challenging time can be like there is an ever-looming cloud blocking us from feeling the sun. It is my belief that therapy can help us see and feel the light again. Depression, anxiety, ADHD, behavioral or personality issues, and abuse & trauma can make us feel like we’re alone and without hope. Therapy can be a place where you don’t have to go through life’s struggles alone and get to learn coping strategies and solutions.

I see many children from divorce, children who need to develop self-esteem, better coping strategies, improve peer relations and work on anger management.
My concentration is counseling children, families and couples. I also see individuals. I use play therapy in sessions with children. I believe through play, children can freely express themselves. When counseling individuals, I chose to use CBT. I believe when negative thoughts are replaced by positive thoughts a person will flourish and feel unstuck.
