**I have a few immediate openings available at this time** Hate therapy? I get it. If you’d rather spend your time and money not sifting through your problems, I don’t blame you. But, if you are missing out on a sense of peace or feel like you'll burst if something doesn't change soon, then it’s worth it to invest in yourself through therapy. I'm committed to not pathologizing people (you are not broken), but some of the concerns I work with the most are: men’s issues (communication, intimacy), relationship concerns, substance use disorders, self esteem/empowerment, life transitions and anxiety.

My focus is on people who have been affected by someone's substance use disorder. Addiction is a family disease. You didn't cause the substance use, you can't control it and you can't cure it. You can learn to find your empowerment by defining your personal boundaries and your personal power. You can learn how to use self care in a crisis and how to cope with your loved one without losing yourself. Self care is essential for your well being. I have worked in the field of Substance Use Disorder for 12 years in many capacities. Please feel free to call and see if I can help you.

In my work I have been very successful in working with clients who have trauma histories and or multigenerational trauma . I have been able to support clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, perfectionistic thinking, negative self talk, children raised by narcissistic parents, codependency, negative self image, and anger management. I work with clients to find the root core beliefs that result in these symptoms and help support them in gaining a greater understanding of themselves.

*** MY PRACTICE IS CURRENTLY FULL. Unable to take new patients until MARCH 2022*** I am a licensed clinical psychologist who has worked for over 30 years as a therapist and school consultant. My goal is to help individuals gain greater understanding of the challenges they face; identify the changes they want to make; develop the confidence to make those changes, and learn the skills necessary to do so. I have consulted regularly within schools to help school personnel support students and design strong policy and protocol; and to parents to help them manage the formidable challenges of parenting teens and young adults.

We talk about what is happening now, how you behave that contributes, what you want, and what you can do. Now a meeting option telehealth; online, HIPAA compliant.

AFFORDABLE COUNSELING and EVALUATIONS. Do you struggle with negative, ineffective thought patterns? Perhaps these thought patterns are brought on by anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma or poor quality of life? Perhaps they are brought on by ineffective stress management, unhealthy communication, poor relationships? It is my belief that our patterns of behavior are heavily influenced by our thoughts, feelings and emotions. These patterns often keep us stuck and unable to move forward. I can help you get unstuck, increase your quality of life and move into your highest and best self. I can throw in a little humor as well!
