**Offering telehealth sessions to all Medicaid plans and private insurance** I believe that everyone has the capacity to implement positive changes in their life with a little support.

I have a deep gratitude for all the patients I've known whose lives have been transformed. That's what makes it all worthwhile. My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative. We work together and as soon as I have a realization that I think can help you I will share it with you so we can use it to move forward. We draw from creativity, science, spirit and all of our mutual resources to succeed. Speaking about yourself opens up new pathways in your mind. Progress and change can then happen at any age and I'm there to see that it does.

Do you ever feel like something is missing in your life: physically, emotionally, or spiritually? It is when one of these aspects of a person’s life becomes out of balance that we begin to struggle in our lives. We may experience chronic pain, illness, obesity, depression, anxiety, stress, or PTSD. With children we often notice behavioral problems. As a LCSW with over 20 years of experience, I firmly believe that balance must be restored to create harmony within the whole person. My commitment to you is to walk beside you in your journey.

When we think of a counselor or sitting down with a therapist there is that taboo attached to people of being psychotic and crazy. Really, it’s not, it’s just sitting down having a conversation. You don’t have to struggle in silence. All great achievements require time. Remember, darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. As we set and talk I will help you find the light that allows you to stop being a prisoner in your past and become the architect of your future.

Being raised in a family with thirteen siblings, I learned early how to see things from multiple viewpoints. Also, I've learned that it was okay to have different viewpoints and not be wrong, because it was that person's opinion or belief. I became interested in couples and families, because I've learned that there's a difference between being in a relationship and "just" being together with a person or persons. Although it's a human need to want to be in a relationship, it's also a personal responsibility to learn how to be relationship material.

Life is a journey that sometimes requires a moment of reflection of where we have been in order to concentrate on where we might allow life to lead us next. Meeting with a therapist enables individuals and families the opportunities to inquire as to why patterns exist and encourages one to ask the question - is this working for me? Is there room for growth? Am I uncomfortable enough with the present to inspire change? I work from a strengths base to encourage individuals to tolerate the vulnerability that comes with introspection and inspire growth.
