As a therapist, I seek to utilize my knowledge, skills, and support to provide the tools and strategies that will guide clients to their goals of healing, building, and strengthening their lives and relationships.

For over 10 years, I have worked with domestic abuse /violence victims and perpetrators.

Worried about your child or teen? Grieving the loss of a loved one? Dealing with infertility? I have 20 years experience in working with families and women struggling in these areas. Parenting doesn't come with a roadmap. It's so easy to feel overwhelmed with all the conflicting advice we get. I help families navigate their way through life's twists and turns using realistic, proven and common-sense solutions (and a little humor and fun).

Suffering from anxiety, depression, PTSD or low self-esteem can be debilitating. If you are ready to make a change, to move forward, and get healthy, my treatment approach may be the solution. I work with individuals and families to get to the root of the symptoms without medication, supplements, or exercises.

I understand that the choice of a therapist is an important one. The trust that is built between the client and the therapist is important in determining how helpful therapy can be. I work hard to create a supportive therapeutic environment. I believe in providing a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere and encourage people to talk at a pace that is comfortable for them. I believe that an individual has the ability to learn to do things differently and feel better. I use techniques associated with the widely recognized cognitive behavioral theory as well as those from family system's theory.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have extensive experience working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, helplessness, and need additional tools to cope with daily stressors and overwhelming thoughts or feelings. In the fast-paced world we live in, we are constantly facing heightened feelings of stress that can be caused by workplace, parenting, family, couple or other relationship conflicts. Unfortunately, for many, alcohol or drugs is used to “manage” difficult times. It is my goal to help clients navigate their most complex feelings and to provide the tools and skills needed to help them thrive.
