As a counselor in addiction treatment since 1991, and a person in long-term recovery, I am passionate about helping others achieve a new life beyond addiction. Challenges are inherent in the recovery process, along with immeasurable rewards. I've seen how counseling can empower people to make changes and transform their lives. I specialize in providing relapse prevention treatment for those recovering from substance use disorders and addressing the many related issues that accompany early, middle and late stage recovery. If you are considering how to move forward in your life, growth, or recovery, I'd love to work with you!

Emotional pain is oftentimes a change agent.

Throughout the counseling process, my hope is that each person becomes empowered to overcome challenges and embrace opportunities for growth.

My ideal client doesn't have all the answers and may not even know where to start. My ideal client may feel unworthy or undeserving. My ideal client may also struggle with settling for less. My ideal client wants more but there is something within them that is holding them back. My ideal client may struggle with grief or have relationship issues. My ideal client wants more. I hold pride in the fact that I provide a Safe Space for people to share things that they aren't comfortable sharing with anyone else. My ideal client understands that they have to be the change that they want to see.

It's time to do something about how you are feeling. Never been to therapy before, or not sure that talking about your problems is right for you? Feeling stuck and knowing that you need to make a change? Change is possible and getting to the life you want is possible. Call or email to see if this is right for you. Or if your loved one is struggling with addiction and you are looking for ways to cope with this-- I can help you better cope and manage these relationships. The people who come see me are professionals, persons who didn't see themselves talking with a counselor, or maybe not even sure they have a problem.

People come to therapy for many reasons and I want to make this experience a meaningful journey for you. You may want to dive into past experiences because they are shaping your current world or you may have something happening in the moment that you need support with in order to determine your next steps. Whatever brings you to the space of exploring therapy, please know that I am here to listen to what you are going through and provide you with an opportunity to reflect on your options so you can decide what is next.

I look forward to working with clients that are motivated to make a change in themselves and dedicated to the therapeutic process. I want counseling to be a warm, accepting, and open-minded experience for my clients and it is a goal I always strive for. I believe to make lasting progress in therapy, it is important to establish a strong therapeutic relationship with the client through genuine understanding, empathy and unconditional positive regard. I have experience working with individuals presenting with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, sexuality concerns, school and life changes, and acute and chronic trauma.

As a little girl, I always wanted to help people. As I grew up, that desire became even stronger until I decided a career in mental health was the best way to fulfill that desire. That desire was further cemented when I became a Christian and saw how people were hurting. Throughout life's circumstances, I developed a passion for marriages and families although I do see clients on an individual basis. I view every client as unique and will treat each client as such. My personal belief is that counseling should be a safe and productive place to share, and I make every attempt to make every effort to make each client feel that way.

Life really is all about perception and I want to help you perceive a more positive life. I know that life presents challenges to us all, but I also believe that how you choose to think about those challenges will determine how you feel. And of course, how you feel will determine how you live. Just the fact that you are reading this is a good sign. It’s a sign that you are tired of not living the life you deserve. It’s a sign that you are nearing the point where healing can begin. It’s a sign that you are ready to claim your story, and your ability to rewrite the parts that aren’t working. Change your story and you change your life!

NOTE: Now accepting clients for CBT-Insomnia-the first-line treatment for insomnia. I am a counselor with 35 years of experience working with adult men and women, and adolescents.
