I offer personal, effective solutions to men and women who struggle in relationships and teach proven ways to restore their self-respect and the love they want in their relationships. I help my clients learn more about self-awareness and how to express themselves with their partners to avoid stress and escalating arguments that lead to bitter results. This includes better boundaries and increased expression of love and warmth. Most people want to change, can admit they are unhappy and are eager to feel better about themselves. I also work with neurodivergent teens and adults struggling with anger, anxiety depression.
I specialize in helping men, women and teens increase their self-awareness and learn how to replace negative behaviors with positive ones. I use CBT to reduce anxiety, panic attacks and depression. I use Exposure Therapy to work with PTSD and trauma.
I provide a no-fault/no-blame/no guilt approach with all my clients. When I work with adults and teens to resolve anger, depression, self-harm, and anxiety, I explain that none of these issues are their fault and that, together, we can find solutions that improve their lives and support them in their relationships.

I use parts of ACT, CBT, and IFS to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma. We will explore your family history to increase your self-awareness of how you were trained to deal with life's issues and explore proven solutions. I often use exposure therapy to help reduce panic attacks and related anxiety stemming from severe trauma/PTSD.
