I have been a Licensed Clinical Psychologist for over 25 years. During this time I have never ceased to be amazed by the enormous potential and resources individuals have in overcoming life's problems and challenges. I believe that psychotherapy or counseling can and should be results oriented. Establishing clear goals and strategies is central to my focus and it encourages individuals to learn new and more constructive ways to think, feel, and behave. I often give "homework" assignments which helps individuals in developing the skills and self confidence to live a more meaningful life. Real problems have real solutions.

I specialize in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and in solving painful, heartbreaking, devastating cases. Living through traumatic events may result in expectations of danger, betrayal, or potential harm within new or old relationships. Survivors may feel vulnerable and need clarification about what is safe. Therefore, trusting others, even those you previously trusted, may be challenging. It may feel frightening to get close to people for fear of being hurt in an unsafe world. When we conclude, you will see that building trust in old and new relationships is essential to healthy relationships after trauma.

Good counseling opens doors. Doors open when we feel safe and supported enough to take a step forward. I believe that deeply listening is the first step to helping people. Do you yearn to be heard and understood? Are you wondering when your life will begin or begin again? I can help you find your priorities and your voice. I can help you face your fears and go where you may have only hoped to. Call me for tools that can help you communicate and connect. Call me if you're ready to find the power you deserve.

Psychotherapy is about personal and interpersonal awareness. As a seasoned clinician, I help my patients deepen insight and begin resolution of longstanding conflicts that impair growth.

I help individuals navigate the complexities of emotional struggles such as anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I employ a psychodynamic approach to help create self-awareness and emotional freedom by understanding the patterns and dynamics of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Emotional and physical connection play a significantly HUGE role in our everyday lives, and yet, so many people are apprehensive and scared to talk about these topics. Let's talk about it! I work with ALL individuals and couples, and have training and experience as an AASSECT certified Sex Therapist, and Clinical Social Worker. I see many individuals struggling with Desire discrepancies, Sexual pain, Trauma, Compulsive sexual behaviors, Infidelity, Gender, and sexual identity etc. My unique and meaningful education in Sex Therapy allows me to address sexual well-being issues that often overlap with general mental health concerns.

I have been working as a therapist with children, teens, families, couples, and adults for more than 20 years. Emotional growth, recovery, self-awareness and a healthier, more balanced life are the long-term outcomes of the investment in psychotherapy, whether it is for you, your children, or your relationship. I am very committed to the power of insight, the concept of emotional intelligence, and the healing power of relationships.

People enter into a counseling relationship when nothing else seems to be working. Although most people soon make comments such as, “(Counseling) was a lot better than I thought it would be”, few people seek counseling as a first option. More often we seek out techniques that either help us to temporarily avoid (e.g., media, social networking) our anxiety, or we seek temporary shots of pleasure (e.g., alcohol, food, pornography) that make us feel good for a short time. Soon enough we realize that all of these things leave us feeling more hollow and lonely, and that is when we start thinking about counseling.

I have a gift of relating well with people, even with those who are uncomfortable with self disclosure. Clients are not kept waiting, and my office environment is extremely private. My passion and expertise is relationship counseling. I quickly identify problematic areas, facilitate open, loving communication, and re-establish your connections. I also specialize in depression, anxiety, adjustment/phase of life difficulties, ADHD, & sexual issues. I am skilled & work much more quickly than many Therapists, so you will gain personal growth & development and learn tools/skills quicker, therefore needing to come less frequently.

Helping people is my passion. My life's work is helping people through their difficult life problems and assist them in gaining skills to better cope with life's turmoils and tribulations. I work with a wide variety of clientele, while using a wide range of therapy techniques. My clientele consists mostly of adolescents and adults doing individual and couple/family therapy.

Many people tend to bottle up their emotions because they believe that other people would just dismiss their problems. They also fear that people would see them as weak or as a burden. However, everyone should understand that seeking help is never a bad thing to do.

Having problems with emotions, thoughts, urges or behaviors, we can help. Experiencing difficulty adjusting to or coping with people or situations, we can help. Want to feel or think differently: live a better life, we can help. Find yourself unable to get or stay engaged in the life you want, we can help. Habitually reacting to people, feelings or ideas, repeating or returning to past behaviors, we can help. Experiencing dysfunction at home, school, work or in society, we can help. Preparing to, in the process of, or maintaining changes and want assistance with your efforts, we can help.

The truth is we are living in intense times that contribute towards discord and dysfunction. As such, you may find yourself on a journey not of your own choosing; and, often during these times, you could stumble upon a place called uncertainty. Basically, this is a place of being stuck at a crossroad, not knowing which direction to take that will produce the results you desire. Or, perhaps you have made some decisions that have resulted in negative consequences and the solutions seem improbable. In essence, no matter the contributing factors to where you are today, CHANGE is still possible, and HEALING is still obtainable!

I provide psychotherapy, counseling and group therapy for anxiety, depression, bereavement, grief, men's issues, anger management, substance abuse/addiction and a wide range of other personal, family and marital problems, including couples counseling. Also, I have advanced substance abuse/addiction education and training. From this foundation, I have a solid understanding of the role that drugs, including prescription drugs and the brains own natural compounds, have in affecting a person's mental and emotional health.
