Hello, thank you for visiting my page. It can be really hard to decide to try therapy, and even harder to make the first contact. When I meet with a new client, I ask what brings them to therapy and how will they know when they are ready to complete therapy. Some of the common reasons I've heard that lead to beginning therapy can be to change the way you handle transitions or stressors, having little confidence in yourself, complex grief, or anxiety. Clients I see want to conclude therapy with a feeling of genuine confidence and strength in the way they carry and view themselves, and live without looming doubt or anxiety.

I have been providing mental health and substance abuse treatment for 25 years. By utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I assist my clients with exploration of their thoughts and feelings and how these impact behavior. I encourage my clients to explore their beliefs and world view and identify maladaptive coping skills. The goal is to develop a healthy lifestyle. Together we explore how each individual adopted his or her current lifestyle, what needs they were attempting to fulfill, and how and what they would like to change. Through the therapeutic relationship individuals become empowered to create a new life narrative.

Adulthood is all about making decisions. Decisions about our wellness, our relationships, our careers, our families. At times we question if the path we are on is the right one for us. We may feel stuck or worried that we are behind the goals we set for our lives. I help people unlearn that which no longer serves them and support them as they cultivate a life that nurtures growth, healing, and fulfillment.
