Every one of us needs the healing power of redeeming grace that begins with my acceptance of you, just as you are. And that relationship continues with a mutual understanding that we are meant to live more fully, more beautifully, and with more peace. To have that kind of life, we need each other. I am so grateful you have come to the point in your life where you have reached out for that kind of partnership. My hope is that I can walk with you along this journey of healing, with patient understanding, and with acceptance.
Each of us has a personality, abilities, and histories that are unique: there is no one just like us. We exist best together when we use these aspects of ourselves to encourage one other. I'd love to use my life experience as we work together to explore ways for you to become your best "you."
And so, I invite you to reach out to me. Let us sit together and explore how your life might be richer, fuller, and more hopeful.

In my practice, I spend the first session getting to know you and what brought you in to see me. This information guides me to the best treatment decision. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), because it helps people identify ways in which their thoughts have driven their actions and words. When we identify those thoughts and learn to change them, we feel better and respond better.
