If you've been feeling sad, anxious, and overwhelmed, it's time to prioritize being happy. I am here to help you find your way forward. In the last 22 years of counseling, I have worked with a diverse group of amazing clients - from troubled teens, parents dealing with divorce, young adults seeking clarity about their identity (gender and otherwise), to those recovering from suicide attempts, chronic anxiety and depression, addictions, combat and childhood traumas, complicated grief, and career burnout. I look forward to helping each new client clarify their goals and find their unique path to recovery, peace, and acceptance.
I specialize in two areas. I have been treating trauma and traumatic stress for many years and maintain expertise in effective, evidence-based interventions. I also help clients with issues related to sexuality and gender diversity. Along with being personally aware of and at home myself in the LGBTQ+ community, I am trained as an LGBTQ+ Affirming Provider.
I am trustworthy and my bar for professional standards is set at excellent. I use proven techniques with a creative and collaborative style. I genuinely admire the strengths and survival strategies of my clients. My aim is to equip/empower them to find self-worth, peace, wellbeing, and to build resilience for what's ahead.
