The idea of counseling can be scary. I use humor to normalize symptoms of stress and provide a comfortable environment to let go and take new supported risks. My clients come here to gain a sense of what patterns are keeping them stuck and to face what has been avoided so they can achieve greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their lives. My objective is to help bring awareness to the answers that lie within you, learn stress reduction techniques, and guide you to take supported risks that can change your life.

I believe that therapy can be beneficial for anyone who feels that they are not living up to their full potential. I treat adults of all ages and have a background working in college counseling, LGBTQ issues and treating addictions.

I help clients to define problems, cope and respond in healthier ways, and achieve a deeper understanding and appreciation for themselves. I provide therapy to individuals and couples as well as drug and alcohol evaluations.
