I am currently doing telehealth appointments and office appointments. Are you suffering from worry, sadness, or other concerns that you don't know how to deal with? Sometimes you just need a counselor in order to explore where these concerns are coming from and develop new ways to cope, handle or think about situations differently. I counsel adults and adolescents around a variety of concerns.

I have been in the healing profession for 30+ years. Through my work as an energy psychotherapist over the past decade, I have witnessed dramatic changes in my clients lives. I use a variety of healing modalities, coupled with a traditional therapeutic approach. In my experience, energy work alone will often relieve or eliminate emotional or physical symptoms. Combining this with therapy provides us with an understanding of why we act in destructive ways, the opportunity to re-evaluate those decisions and provide tools necessary to break free from old, limiting beliefs. The desired outcome is to create positive lasting change.

Collaboratively we create customized, innovative, empowering treatments for anger, anxiety, depression, mood, personality, identity, dissociative, delusional sleep disorders, life adjustments, illness, loss, grief, dementia and complex trauma.
Focused on healing through trauma-informed, body-based care and grounded in family systems theory, I draw on a range of counseling approaches including; psychodynamic, transpersonal, existential, expressive, mindfulness, mind-body, behavioral (DBT and CBT). Together we sojourn toward self-awareness and compassion for self. Emblematic moments from the past may have become conditioned responses to the present. We focus both on here and now and historical events. TAT (Tapas Acupressure Technique), mindfulness, sensorimotor psychotherapy and EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing help re-program stored arousal in the body.

At present, my practice is limited to men and women in the law enforcement community and their families. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being used in many medical facilities today and I am against the practice. I am making a statement: I don’t believe AI and the collection of voice recordings in a medical / psychotherapy office should happen. Be assured that I do not and I will not record therapy sessions. Treatment sessions are sacrosanct to me and therefore confidential.

First of all, I view all my clients' presenting issues as unhealthy yet normal adjustments to life problems. These adjustments have become problematic and created symptoms in the individual and in relationships. My goal is threefold: "stop the bleeding," seek healthier adjustments and, ultimately, to build a quality life of contentment and satisfaction. My orientation is existential and cognitive behavioral, with a specialty in clinical hypnosis and its many valuable applications.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.
Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.
Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.
What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
