Needing therapy doesn’t mean you are weak. It doesn’t mean you are the problem, and it most certainly does not mean you can’t have your religion too!

Relationships are a fact of life. We all live in relation to each other as spouses, children, parents & friends. Even in the best of these relationships, inevitably, problems occur. Often, we are able to resolve problems on our own. However, there are times when the help of an expert in relationships, such as a Marriage and Family Therapist, is needed to: *improve communications, *increase understanding in relationships, *resolve conflicts, *improve parenting skills,*relieve stress, depression, anxiety,*strengthen the bonds of relationships & gain a better understanding of one another.

I am dedicated to providing the highest quality psychotherapy services to my clients. I believe it is essential to provide psychotherapy that is based on the latest scientific research.

CBT has been proven through more than 400 clinical outcome studies to be highly effective for the treatment of many mental health concerns including depression, general anxiety disorders, panic, anger and marital distress. CBT is one of the few forms of psychotherapy that has been scientifically tested and shown to help people improve their lives.

In my practice, I work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I offer both short-term therapy and longer insight-oriented work. I utilize my years of experience, intuition, compassion, and humor to support my clients in addressing the issues that brought them into therapy. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, anger, abuse/trauma, parenting/divorce/blended family issues, foster care, as well as other social, emotional, and behavioral issues. Through my dynamic approach, I provide a safe and nurturing environment to explore and resolve various issues. I draw from the following theories and techniques: psychodynamic, client-centered, humanistic, play therapy, mindfulness, and somatic psychology.

We have wanted to go back to work or school for years, but no one said returning to "normal life" would be so stressful. Millions of people are experiencing social and medical anxiety reengaging with the very lives we mourned the loss of for two years. Fears of covid, RSV, the flu and even the fragility of living have turned many of us into hypervigilant stressballs, to say nothing of returning to the simple acts of remembering how to do "small talk" around the water cooler again. Who'd have thought the thing we wanted the most is the now the greatest source of stress in our lives? If this is you, I see you...

One of the most important lessons I have learned as a therapist is that therapy requires more than a one size fits all approach. I treat every person as an individual. I lean on my years of experience and use a multitude of treatment modalities to treat your individual needs. We can work together to help you achieve your therapeutic goals. I have treated individuals with a variety of issues, including PTSD, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, dissociative identity disorder, substance abuse disorders, anger, and more. I have also helped families and couples achieve harmony and improve their relationships and communication.
