If you would like change in your life then therapy is a great place to receive non-judgmental feedback along with unbiased advisement. When we do therapy, it is about your goals, what you feel stuck on, and how you would like to move forward. The process of change is achievable through a variety of therapeutic techniques so there is flexibility in challenging your thoughts. I like to explore the past and present to unravel the root of concerns. I believe therapy should be guided by your investment for growth as I meet you where you are at, as this is crucial in maintaining longevity towards success. Here is a little about me . . .
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC-Master) providing therapy for 17 years. I have worked with individuals to treat anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, and traumas. I have also worked with families, including couples to better define communication for a healthy relationship.
I am also certified to provide Impaired Driving Screenings and Assessments, as ordered through the DMV or courts, for DUI/DWI offenses. I am also trained to provide mediation for couples seeking an uncontested divorce. Please EMAIL for an appt. as BEST way to reach me.

I use an integrated, multi-model, approach as I feel it is best to pull from all styles to see what works best for you! Once we find the one, we can certainly stick with it but variety is always best.
