I worked with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to educate them on why these patterns begin and how to develop healthier behaviors.
“Knowledge is only rumor until it lives in the muscle.” This proverb from the Asaro tribe of Papua New Guinea is the foundation of how we bring what we learn into a lived experience and create lasting change. We can read books, watch videos, and make resolutions but until we truly move forward in a different way, we run the risk of getting stuck in old patterns. My goal is to help uncover the root causes that lead to the use of substances or behaviors that become detrimental to the spirit and values in the individual. Reclaiming these values and rebuilding self-esteem is possible and begins with a decision to seek help.

I treat adolescents and adults with issues ranging from anxiety and mood disorders to adjusting to life changes. I am very responsive to contacts and prioritize letting new patients know quickly if I can see them - you don't have to expect days of "phone tag." I balance evidence-based practices with building a comfortable relationship. After getting to know my patients and their circumstances, I work with them to identify where they may challenge their beliefs and try new strategies. Depending on your concerns, you might work with me on exposure therapy, social and communication skills, mindfulness, and emotion regulation.

There are times when we outgrow our current coping skills and need to refocus our energy and will.

Using cognitive behavioral therapy with a client-centered focus, I can join with and provide an outlet for clients to share experiences and work together to foster an improved sense of self and well-being.

With 30 years of experience working with adults, adolescents, couples and families, I practice an insight oriented and holistic approach, attending to physical, emotional and spiritual healing and wellness.
In today's culture, we are often so focused on dealing with the many stressors of everyday life and on taking care of others, we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious and depleted. Making an appointment for therapy is the first step towards taking care of yourself and feeling better. In my experience, lasting change can begin to take place as you share with a therapist who will listen compassionately, join with you to understand your experience, and guide you to find and use the tools to make postive changes and create the life you want.
