I view myself as a co-pilot. I am a co-facilitator on the client's journey of self-exploration, insight, growth and change. It is important to build the foundation of a safe therapeutic relationship in which a client has the ability to heal old wounds, re-discover their strengths, awaken passions, spark their creativity, and re-awaken joy. A mutually agreed upon treatment plan will be created to meet the clients unique needs. While engaging in psychotherapy it is common to address a variety of emotions. Patience, compassion, self-care and healthy boundaries assist the client in navigating through these difficult emotions.
I honor the healing power of telling one's story. Within therapy, I act as the client's co-pilot assisting them in the re-authoring of their lives. Therapy can provide a client with a safe place in which to explore their relationship with themselves, others and the environment they live in.
I can help you create change. I encourage you to give me a call and set up an initial appointment. Veterans, their families and caregivers are welcome.

My work with both individuals and couples is rewarding and inspiring. The therapy looks different with a couple. The "couple" becomes the client and we work together to create changes in the couple system, relationship, their family and the world they live in. Don't fear the couch. Tell your story. It heals. Please reach out with questions and to explore if we would be a good fit.
