About
Cultivating positive thinking can become a healthy habit through effective therapy. As a well-trained and experienced psychotherapist with more than 30 years in the mental health profession, I provide a positive, inspiring and safe place where individuals are able to share their fears, express emotions and desires, and identify their needs. Explore and embrace your personal strengths and positive self. Positive change happens in your life when you envision the awe of your own existence and the new path to a healthier you.
Let me help support you through the challenges and obstacles you face in your daily life. My extensive mental health experience and training in a variety of treatment modalities include: psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, strengths-based theory, dialectical behavioral therapy, alcohol & drug treatment/prevention, as well as others.
I will design an individual plan and help tailor it toward your specific goals and objectives. I look forward to consulting with you about achieving balance in your life while inspiring hope, building positive relationships, promoting emotional and personal growth, and enhancing your sense of self-worth and spirituality.
