Everyone deserves relief from the suffering they may be experiencing. We all go through hard times and may need some direction in order to navigate back toward a fulfilling and happy life. In our sessions we will explore how your life story has shaped the person you are, how your current outlook on life influences how you experience it as well as why you do the things you do. You will gain insight into your feelings and actions as well as techniques to help your painful experiences subside. I have office hours on Friday mornings between 9:30am and 2:30pm.

"Your greatest self has been waiting your whole life, don't make it wait any longer." When we least expect it, life throws us many difficult challenges.

I can give you the proper guidance, education, and tools to make your life better.

My work is my passion. In a non-judgemental way, I allow each person to share their own personal story with me. In an initial telephone consultation, I take the time with each person to talk, to make certain I know what issues they need help with, and to make certain that person feels comfortable talking with me. In my work with clients, I respect them and their personal values and beliefs while helping them to achieve their own personal goals. I create a comfortable office atmosphere for clients in which to talk about their personal issues.

"With hard work, support, and a little bit of humor; change can happen. Too many of us get wrapped up in the stressors of life that we forget what resources we have right in front of us. With support and hard work, we can utilize those resources, including humor, resiliency, determination, and persistence." Dr. Anderson provides individual psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and young adults. Additionally, Dr. Anderson provides psychological testing for people of all ages.

Do you feel like your life is going in the right direction? Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Is the world seemingly holding you back? Do you long for deeper relationships? I believe that every person or couple has an innate potential to reach an optimal level to get the most out of their life. Most of us have had or are dealing with perceived obstacles, past hurts, or future concerns that impede us and create a sense of being stuck. I can help you ease and alleviate your psychological pain, gain power, and get more of what you want.

I have extensive experience in the healthcare field. My areas of interest include depression, anxiety, loss/bereavement, aging issues, chronic health issues, stress management and life transitions.

In my work with individuals and couples many of my clients tell me that I have a warm and interpersonal approach. I help them feel comfortable and take a very collaborative approach with them.

I am passionate about helping people develop healthy relationships, achieve personal growth and experience emotional wholeness. It is my goal to bring hope, guidance, and a safe place for individuals or couples to explore the nature their challenges.

Currently not taking new clients. You are looking for something. Relationship? Connection? A life worth living? Maybe you don't even know. How about a better relationship with yourself? Whatever it is, counseling can help. I use an eclectic approach because there is no one size fits all in trying to find what will work for you. I provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental space to explore their story and find their strengths to work on what's not right. We are all capable of feeling good about who we are and to reach our highest potential. Never stop short at finding yours.

Making the decision to start therapy can be tough- I want you to know that it can be one of the best decisions you make in your life. Whether you’re simply frustrated with the lack of focus and direction you have or are struggling to have the kind of relationships you want in your life, having the guidance and direction of a skilled therapist can make all the difference. As we begin to work together, the focus will be to understand what you want and what is in your way. What I do is build trust and a working relationship with you so we can begin to make a realistic plan of action.

I believe healing starts from within and counseling can be the bridge to that healing. In counseling, the hope is to empower oneself to live life fully. I enjoy helping children, adolescents and adults gain perspective on their obstacles and struggles.
