For over 15 years, I have had the privilege of counseling people of all ages and backgrounds that have struggled with anxiety, depression, marital conflict, family issues and academic concerns. Over the past five years, I have also started working with clients that have alcohol and drug related problems. Everyone is so unique. Therefore, my therapeutic approach is a nonjudgmental positive regard and it is tailored to fit the individual, couple and/or family. It has been very rewarding to watch so many clients make better choices and live a more full, enriched life. Every day is a new beginning!

I feel that meeting and speaking with each client allows me the opportunity to view them through the unique scope of listening and reflecting objectively. I am well-versed in anger management and domestic violence issues and have worked extensively with people dealing with depression and anxiety. My goal is to make a difference, small or large, in each session by helping a client to view himself or herself in a more positive, understood way than when they came in.

Over the course of an individual's life, new events can lead to a disruption in the ability to effectively cope with stressors that may have once been handled effectively. As such, my professional focus is on helping clients who have been through a traumatic/stressful event heal more effectively so that they may resume their lives in a healthier and happier manner. I work primarily from a Cognitive-Behavioral and Strength-based approach, and specific mental health concerns I specialize in include, but are not limited to, Relationship Difficulties, Parenting, Addiction, Depression/Anxiety, Trauma/PTSD, and Grief.

I have worked with many people over the years; young children, adolescents, young adults, adults, all with various issues. Many of the clients I see are struggling with anxiety, worries, depression, chemical use, relationship concerns, or parenting dilemmas. Often times, people are most helped by having someone to listen, to help them explore the issue, and to find solutions that work for them. My 35 years of experience have given me insight into what strategies are most effective. I am licensed and skilled in both mental health and chemical use issues.

Hope and optimism can feel like they are far, far away when you are in the midst of chronic depression. A day without depression is a huge change in some people's lives.
Mental health treatment can bring optimism in the midst of pessimism and darkness. Psychotherapy introduces tools to help you cope with the exhaustion of emptiness and frustration of social anxiety. Whether your issues are related to depression or dysfunctional relationship patterns, there is hope.

Starting therapy can be a daunting process, difficult in finding openings and in feeling connected with providers. I like to start the therapy process giving time for developing a relationship with my clients as the basis for gaining skills and healing from past experiences. I never push clients to feel uncomfortable or approach topics before they are ready. I try to meet people where they are at, sit with them in their current feelings and emotional states and offer skills to shift out of these states. My main goal is to provide a safe place of support for clients to feel heard and understood in their own life experiences.

Life can be full of changes both difficult and easy, some wanted and others unwanted. How we react and adjust to these changes can impact our daily lives. I find that everyone has their own perspective on life and story to tell, and together we can help you to express yours and work towards the changes you may want to create. I understand that everyone is unique and so I work collaboratively with each person to understand their story and find an approach that makes sense for you.

There is a saying that refers to "the dark endless days and the dark endless nights" This can describe how life can feel at times- that there is no light at the end of the tunnel, no end to the sadness, anxiety, stress, or exhaustion. But there is hope.These feelings may be due to many things and that is where counseling can help. By working collaboratively with you and emphasizing your strengths, I will help you find relief, develop skills so you can face your struggles and improve your mental health and emotional well being. When you meet with me, you can expect counseling that is non- judgmental, open minded and collaborative.
