I now only work online through Skype. I have worked with a variety of issues over my 30 years in my profession. I have been an Adjunct Instructor in the UN-O Graduate Counseling Department, Consultant to area psychiatric programs, Director of Outpatient programs, and a presenter to a wide range of businesses as well as my outpatient practice. I like the diversity of my practice in terms of diagnostic features rather than a particular specialty. My many years of practice have allowed me to work with such a wide range of circumstances and issues.

Every person is unique and capable of realizing his/her potentials in an optimal environment. However, life is filled with so many challenges and it is not unusual to feel discouraged or unable to meet those challenges. Building a relationship based on acceptance and trust with my clients is my priority.

We explore and identify how significant past experiences have shaped their present life.When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.

Beginning therapy and finding a new therapist can feel challenging and even scary. Therapy is a collaborative process built on developing trust, empathy and acceptance. Therapy can be useful in working through negative experiences related to self-esteem, identity, relationships, communication, intrusive thoughts, and past trauma.

I love the concept of developing "grit". Learning how to overcome the obstacles and emotions that stand in our way. Let me help you deal with the inevitable anxiety and frustrations we face and develop the skills that help you deal with them. Perseverance, flexibility and adaptability gets us farther than intelligence, skill and luck ever will or ever have. If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired...I can help. Some days we need a cheerleader with pom poms; some days, we may need a "kick in the butt" or a nudge. All days we want to feel understood, accepted and validated. I am known as being both direct and kind.

Our deepest longings are to be seen, known, cherished, and touched. But often we live alone and thirsty in the wilderness. Relationships with families, friends, co-workers, and/or church community may be filled with trauma, anxiety, betrayal, pain, or ongoing stress. We may be in a state of brokenness, completely shut down, trapped by anger and grief or stuck in a meaningless rut. Strategies that had once managed life may be working against the relief we desire. Efforts to protect ourselves keep relationships shallow and distant. As a result, there is a deep thirst in our soul that nothing seems to satisfy.

As the parent of a child/teen that struggles with their wounded selves, you have tried everything. The exhaustive interventions that you have tried are going nowhere fast. Throwing in the towel is all that you have left. Your marriage is more daunting than it is invigorating and you keep hitting a wall with connecting to one another. Depression has you stuck in quicksand and the struggle is consuming you. Anxiety has its grip on you and it is controlling your life. You find yourself asking what more can you do? You feel all alone in your struggles and are having more moments of frustration than joy. Asking for help is hard.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists
What type of therapy is best for narcissistic personality disorder?
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is best treated with talk therapy, which could involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, gestalt therapy, or similar approaches. A therapist will help a patient uncover the feelings that may drive their behavior and discover how to engage with themselves and those around them with greater empathy and understanding, fewer demands, and less defensiveness, with the goal of developing a more authentic sense of self that enables healthier relationships.
How do therapists treat NPD?
By developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and continually focusing patients on relationships, community, and connection, a therapist, through talk therapy, may be able to help someone with NPD change. In sessions, a therapist will help an individual achieve relief from their current stressors, including the treatment of co-occurring conditions such as anxiety or depression. A therapist may also help an individual to recognize unhealthy coping mechanisms, learn new ways of interacting with others, and eventually become able to feel and display empathy.
Can a narcissist be cured with therapy?
Therapy can be effective. After a serious setback or great loss, someone with NPD may be forced to recognize that they are not immune to life’s challenges. That can spur feelings of melancholy and depression that lead them to seek professional help. Once an individual decides to seek help, they have already taken a step that the majority of those with NPD never will. Still, people with NPD often quit therapy as they naturally resist feeling vulnerable, being challenged, or admitting to flaws.
How can you get narcissistic personality disorder treatment for someone?
It is notoriously difficult to convince someone with NPD to seek help. With their feelings of superiority, they may be unlikely to recognize or acknowledge that they have a problem, or that their problem is narcissism. Sometimes, they are aware that they are arrogant and that others resent them but they don’t see it as a problem because they are convinced of their superiority. People with NPD have trouble maintaining relationships, but family members and others who do feel close to them, and whose presence they value, may be able to encourage them to seek therapy.
