"It is my belief that we are all trying to live meaningful lives in which we are able to express our talents and abilities and make deeper connections with those who are most important to us. The type of psychotherapy I provide offers a safe and accepting environment where obstacles that prevent a fuller life are explored and understood. A good psychotherapy outcome is one where a person experiences greater self-acceptance and greater self-love. My goal is to help each person see and understand the fuller picture of his or her life to be in a position of choosing to live more fully."

"Seeking help from a therapist can make some people feel uncomfortable. Correcting the problems in your life is the most courageous move you can make. Your journey toward self-enrichment and understanding can begin as soon as you are ready to move into a new area where anything is possible. By scheduling a counseling session with me, you are creating a chance for positive change in your life. Whether your change is due to interrupting a negative cycle, gleaning a new and objective viewpoint, or by learning new tools to change your life."

"As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor, I have extensive experience assisting clients with a variety of goals such as improved management of stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, problematic behaviors and relationship issues."

"We all come from different backgrounds or walks of life, and often times, it is difficult to feel like you are being heard for who you are. My goal is to provide a safe, affirming and collaborative environment in order to accomplish meaningful change and progress in your life. "

"Being a person of long term recovery myself, I am uniquely qualified to help individuals and families struggling with addiction issues seeking long-term solutions. Since much of addiction is rooted in trauma, we explore the hurts that caused dysfunction in coping skills along with the effects of addiction on spouses, the family unit and friends."

"Are you seeking change? What would your life look like if your magic wand was working? What is in the way of living the most effective life possible? Is it your belief system, your behavior? Is it a situation, a relationship or an unmet need? Building a strong relationship with yourself is the foundation for effective living. Self esteem is a result of knowing yourself, growing yourself and accepting your true self. It requires honesty, willingness and discomfort. The most effective way to change someone else's behavior is to change your own. Nothing changes if nothing changes. "

"I enjoy working with adults and older adolescents seeking to expand their self-awareness, reduce their suffering, and explore a more balanced way of experiencing themselves and others. Our work will focus on your life experience including, but not limited to, family of origin issues, past and present relationships, traumatic experiences, feeling states, life and relationship changes, and grief. We will also examine your unique strengths and the ways that you have consciously or unconsciously sustained a connection to your innermost self."

"Have you found yourself in a dark place? Unsure of how to navigate feelings, life situations, and choices? Anxiety, relationship issues, and life transitions can often leave you feeling like you're stumbling around in the dark. I would love to partner with you in overcoming the darkness in your life."

"Being human is tough sometimes, but you don't have to struggle alone. I offer a safe, affirming space where we can focus on your life; on where you have been, where you are now, and where you want to be. I don't believe in one size fits all therapy. We are each unique and together we will find your individual path to authenticity and well-being. "

"I love having the opportunity to help clients relieve stress, feel better in their mood and about themselves as well as function better in their relationships and life situations. I've been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 1990 and enjoy working with adults of any age using a wholistic approach. Some of the more common problems with which I help people are ~ depression, anxiety, relationships, family issues, stress management, loss and grief, job stress, low self-confidence or self-esteem, negative thinking, and difficult life transitions."

"I consider it a great honor when someone invites me to help with their struggles. My passion is to help individuals and couples heal who have been devastated by infidelity, sex and porn addiction, substance abuse, relationship problems, trauma and betrayal. Couples in recovery are especially important to me as too many relationships end due to losing hope or not knowing how to heal together. Healing a marriage after betrayal or other life stressors is possible. I also enjoy working with individuals who want to quit their addictive behavior, as well as spouses of addicts when they need supportive counseling."

"Do you hustle hard in life? Do you often feel overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out? You might be experiencing symptoms of insomnia, low motivation, not feeling like yourself, or who you would like to be. Life can become stressful and feel overwhelming at times. Having someone to walk beside you through those times helps ease the burden. People start to heal the moment they feel heard. "

"Together we address your needs, wants, problems, frustrations, challenges and, likely, get your needs met, solve your problems, achieve your opportunities and goals, help you change for better-in short, give you a bright tomorrow. I will be glad to be of service to you and work with you."

"In my way of working with you, I lay my personal issues aside for our time together and give myself plenty of internal space to resonate with you on a gut level. As I hear your story in words I also hear it in feelings. A good therapist puts these two narratives together, the spoken one and the emotional one, in getting to an accurate understanding of you. When I merge this understanding with my training in psychology, which is extensive, I'm able to reflect purposefully with you about what might be wrong; about "how" you're hurting."

"Anxiety, depression, anger, relationship conflict, grief, adjustment, and poor performance are just a few of the difficulties we face in our lives. All of us need the support of others to help navigate the multitude of challenges we experience. Sometimes friends and family, coaches and teammates are too much a part of the situation to be objective or are ill-equipped to offer care, support and/or guidance in a way that is helpful. In these situations a highly trained and experienced professional can often be of great assistance."

"Life is challenging! Let me help you identify and process those challenges as a team. Learning to prioritize and organize provides room to develop healthy coping. Share with me your life goals so implementation can follow. Most of the time people need a professional to validate and provide structure in obtaining goals. Let me be that person for you!!!!"

"I offer acceptance and compassion to develop hope and trust in a safe, professional environment. I feel it is important to meet people where they are by helping them explore feelings, thoughts, and perceptions. I work with clients to recognize strengths in building tools to cope with life difficulties. I believe I am an instrument in assisting people in finding their value in all parts of life seeking improved self awareness, honest relationships, reduced anxiety, etc. I am honored to witness personal growth, insight, emotional freedom and personal happiness."

"I am not currently accepting new clients. You live on an emotional roller coaster. You can't keep friends or a job. Hurting yourself feels better than hurting others. You question whether your life is worth living. Perhaps you diagnosed yourself on the internet or your doctor told you that you need something called "DBT." DBT is what I live and breathe."
