I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor. I provide individual and family therapy for youth and adults , addressing relationship issues, difficult life transitions, attachment, anxiety, behavioral challenges and mood disorders.

Are you experiencing flashbacks, recurring nightmares, PTSD? Do you struggle with phobias, hyper-vigilance, social anxiety? Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) can resolve it in as few as 1 to 5 sessions. Are doubts or insecurities hampering your goals? Let ART release them and restore your confidence. ART may be the treatment you need to put an end to troubling symptoms and barriers to success without drugs or equipment. ART is a proven evidence-based treatment for adults and youth. It is an authorized treatment for PTSD by the US Army and the VA. It is safe, effective, and the results are long-lasting. It is not EMDR or hypnosis.

I work with premarital, marital couples, and individual adults and adolescents. I believe in the wisdom of clients which allows them to be an active participant in the therapeutic process. I focus on three main points with my clients. 1. Pay attention to repetitive patterns you are caught up in or that others are caught up in with you, and change anything you can about those patterns. 2. Notice what you are doing when things are going better, and do more of that. 3. Acknowledge the facts and influence of the past, without letting them determine the present or future.
