We specialize in guiding families struggling with addiction recover. Families turn to us when they have run out of ideas to help a family member struggling with addiction and/or alcoholism. My own personal and professional experience has led me to what I am most passionate about. I work with families from the pre-intervention and treatment planning to ongoing family case management. Families become empowered to create healthy changes in themselves. This behavior supports the identified loved one with an opportunity to get help.

I enjoy working with adults who suffer from grief and loss, trauma, and sport-related performance issues. To help overcome these challenges, I take a collaborative approach that focuses on understanding the problem to determine how best to resolve it. I believe that humans have a large capacity to be autonomous and self-directed. Thus, as a psychologist I help my clients realize this potential, promoting adaptive ways of coping, and work myself out of job as a result.

Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, identity, or relationships? You don’t have to navigate this alone.
Life transitions such as college, figuring out who you are, managing pressure from school, relationships, and expectations can feel like a storm you’re carrying by yourself. I specialize in working with teens and young adults who are stuck in cycles of worry, exhaustion, or self-criticism; and want more connection and clarity in their lives.
Some clients come in feeling anxious or depressed, others are questioning parts of their identity, struggling with relationships, or trying to break free from old patterns that keep repeating.

You already have, and can unlock, everything you need to live a fulfilling and purposeful life. My philosophy is that the person/people sitting across from me come with primary expertise, experience and wisdom. Each one is a specialist in their own self and their own life, and comes with inherent worth, value and dignity. My priority is to be fully present and aware in order to build trusting relationships, deeply understand, reflect each person's insights/solutions, and offer hope in other possibilities. It's an honor to be a partner and consultant in the process of uncovering hidden resources.

I provide in-person and teletherapy services. I offer outdoor based therapy interventions where we will often meet at public park settings. I have found that Ecotherapy can be a successful technique for individuals who struggle with life transitions, self esteem, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. The activities can vary depending on the season and person. Some examples are: forest bathing, fishing, folfing, snowshoeing, forest foraging, swimming, rafting, skiing etc. Ecotherapy is an alternative approach which may be useful to you if you struggled with traditional in-office therapies.

We often come to therapy when we feel stuck and want to shift how we feel, relate, or move through the world. I work predominantly with teens and adults using therapeutic approaches that combine skill-building and personal exploration.

Together, we can work on understanding emotions, managing anxiety, building self-esteem, and creating purposeful relationships using an approach that uniquely fits you.

I work with those motivated by self-understanding, growth, and positive change. Life often throws us out of balance, creating adverse symptoms, such as grief, depression, and anxiety. Perhaps you have a history of trauma that continues to affect you in life, work, or relationships. Alternatively, there may be tension in your family system, marriage, relationships, or career. Whatever it is that "isn't working," there is a way to move through it... Sometimes we just need a little guidance and extra support. I am that guidance and support to lead you into a healthy state of mind-body-soul balance.

Deciding to see a therapist can be an overwhelming decision, and it can also be a powerful time of exploration, discovery, healing, and growth. Through discovering more fully our story and how our stories came to be, we can attend to that process. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor- Candidate, offering in-person, and telehealth counseling sessions. I believe counseling to be a collaborative relationship with the client, helping support the client process experiences with a focus on the whole person, connecting mind and body, and developing a deeper understanding of our life experiences in a way to positively grow.

I believe the therapeutic process should include trust and non-judgment as its foundation. Attachment Theory influences my practice. I have 22 years of experience working with children and families who have experienced trauma as well as adolescents and adults who face life stressors. I enjoy working with a variety of needs and populations.

Glad you found me! I have worked with a wide range of clients in various healthcare agencies, who are willing to address stressors from a Holistic perspective. Ideal clients are open-minded and possess a willingness to find new ways to overcome setbacks. As a cancer survivor, I know how challenging it can be to find help. I offer a supportive environment for people who struggle with work, chronic medical conditions, addictions, and codependency that impact their mood and relationships.

Many of my clients struggle to manage daily life tasks at home and/or work; they procrastinate, lack follow through, can't finish assignments on time, fail to meet personal and/or professional goals, ruminate over poor choice behaviors or compulsions, and beat themselves up over these challenges.
Does this sound like you? As your therapist I will support you where you are at, wherever that may be on your therapeutic journey. Together we will use diagnostic measures for clarity as well as therapeutic techniques from various modalities such as CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy and Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT).

I am a two-time cancer survivor and father of six (3-Bio & 3-Adopted). I have been married to my best friend since 2006. Due to a childhood marked by poverty, abuse, and neglect, I have a deep experiential understanding of trauma & addiction. For me, this is more than a job, it is my purpose to walk alongside people as they step into freedom from the wounds of their past. I hold a deep value for the pursuit of growth. It is an integral part of my practice to help identify and promote my clients' strengths, and to hold up a mirror so they can see that they already have everything they need to accomplish their goals.
