My website
I work with individuals who are navigating anxiety, alcohol use, men’s issues, and relationship challenges. At times, life can feel overwhelming, isolating, or just hard to make sense of—but you don’t have to go through it on your own. My approach is strengths-based and person-centered, which means I take the time to really get to know you—your story, your values, and what matters most in your life. Together, we’ll create a space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood. My hope is to help you find more clarity, feel more balanced, and move toward a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling to you.
Before my 25 years in mental health, I worked as an accountant and financial analyst in both the private and public sectors. This professional background provides valuable context in my work as a therapist, particularly in understanding the challenges of balancing career demands, stress, and personal relationships.
I look forward to supporting you as you work toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. Taking the first step can feel difficult, and reaching out is an important part of that process. You’re welcome to visit my website to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation. I respond to all inquiries within one business day and am happy to answer any question

For anxiety, depression or alcohol use disorder, I usually work with you for 8 - 12 sessions using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) or Motivational Interviewing (MI). Most clients see graduate lifting of symptoms within 2 months, with consistent improvements thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
