Life can be difficult. Why go through it all alone? I believe in building skills that heal, and breaking patterns that inhibit positive change. I promote positive transformation that lasts beyond the counseling experience. Most importantly, I believe that every client is unique so I adapt modalities that will best suit you. It is my goal as a therapist to help you sort things out and get some relief from the tough situations in life. Trouble with relationships, family, work, education will happen; however, it does not define who you are. You do!

Each person is the expert in their own lives, and through utilizing an empowering and holistic approach, we will identify and work towards your goals. During our time together we may talk, play and/or practice mindfulness-it is all guided by your unique needs. I am grateful to take this journey with you!

My approach to the therapeutic relationship embraces H.O.P.E. - Healing, Optimism, Potential, and Empowerment. I have over 30 years of experience in the field of mental health and I will motivate you to increase your quality of life through evidenced based practices including Motivational Interviewing, CBT, REBT, Mindfulness.

How has pain colored your lens? Clouded your thoughts and decision making? Impacted your interpersonal relationships? Work/School life? Most people don't realize that if pain goes unattended; it impacts every area of our lives; including how we see and experience the world and the people in it. Unattended to pain opens the door to destructive behavior patterns and declining motivation. Pain can show up in addictions, somatic/psychotic manifestation, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, etc. When explored with the aide of a professional, that same pain can be utilized to help you discover the best version of yourself.

Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in life and we just cannot figure it out-"what am I doing wrong?... Why do I end up in the same place over and over ?..." Mistaken beliefs about yourself as well as ingrained patterns of feeling and thinking impact your self esteem, relationships and work life. Sometimes trauma ,that occurs during the formative years of childhood ,can result in persistent fear, worry ,and depression . Substances, food , sex, money and work can be misused in attempts to find relief from the unrelenting emotional pain or numbness that untreated traumas create.Trauma therapies are designed to help with these struggles

Is online therapy a good option?

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
