We all have different circumstances throughout life that cause us to feel lost, confused, hurt and disconnected from the world. These feelings can be challenging, overwhelming and sometimes we may feel there's nobody that can help us navigate through our landmine of emotions and I would be honored to assist you on your journey.

One of the most difficult times in a person's life is time of uncertainty. Are you confused as to the direction your life is headed? Do you have questions that you need help sorting out the answers to? Do you lack motivation and passion about your future? Do you have a vision with no focus? If you can answer yes to any of these questions then we need to have a conversation. Together we can work to analyze what would help add direction, zest, and vitality to your life. Who knows better than you what would make your life meaningful. My job is to assist you on the journey.

I am a psychotherapist who understands life can feel like a daily struggle. No one should have to endure these feelings alone. I listen and support clients discover how they can achieve a life that is truly meaningful. I offer a counseling relationship that provides opportunities for my clients to emotionally move forward and bring a healthy balance back into their lives. It is possible to heal, gain a sense of well-being, restore hope, thrive and rekindle happiness during the most challenging times. I engage in a compassionate therapeutic approach with adolescents, young adults, adults, elderly, and couples.

Are you in a constant state of worry or emotional distress? Do you suffer from debilitating panic attacks or avoid social situations? Overcome with negative, anxious or intrusive thoughts? Anxiety and stress can develop from a combination of biological factors, personality, and life experiences. Anxiety can be debilitating and rob you from everyday pleasures of life. Let me help you find more peace and balance by changing your relationship with anxiety and stress; letting you enjoy your life more fully.

My practice includes, but is not limited to, Individuals, Couples, Families and Groups. My approach to Psychological Counseling is Person-Centered and Strength-Based. With those I work with the goal is transformation and increased skills in dealing with problems of living. All dimensions of an individual's life are accessed including spirituality.

Clients who are anxious and depressed and want to work on facing and reducing their symptoms and behavioral tendencies usually find the most benefits from my work with them. Children, teens and adults are all welcome and we start where the most pain is identified as preventing happiness. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Family Therapy are most often utilized.

I created The Help Couch to facilitate positive change for individuals and couples. Intimate relationships, parenting, growing up, work, school, and social commitments - we understand how trying everyday life can be when things are out of balance. You are not alone in your challenges and you do not have to carry the weight by yourself. Together we will cultivate greater confidence, build richer, more intimate and fulfilling relationships and improve your feelings and behaviors.

Listening to what you say, and to what you don't say is very important to me. I am often told that talking to me was the very first time that a client had their feelings accepted. Helping others honor the unique perspective with which they see the world is the best way to enable a person to trust their feelings, to value their experiences, and to lead a richer life. I do believe that leopards can change their spots! I consult with psychotherapy and life-coaching clients in my office and also by phone across the country.
