Change is a choice. I believe everyone, at some point in our lives, can benefit from counseling and make positive changes. Life happens and it can be very, very difficult and even totally overwhelming from time to time. Counseling can help you navigate through those challenging times no matter the circumstances. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, overcoming abuse or a history of violence, behavioral issues, grief, difficulty adjusting, or just need to learn more healthy and effective coping skills, do consider giving counseling a try. If you want to change and are willing to truly try, that is all it takes.

When was the last time you felt joyful? Or even content? What about the last time you felt decisive? Optimistic? Confident? In control? Fearless? Loved? I want to help in the most effective and efficient way possible. So although I am educated and experienced as a counselor, I choose hypnotherapy as my primary modality. I can help you reduce stress, heal trauma, improve sleep, change habits and beliefs that are draining you, release phobias, and teach you to trust and love yourself. I specialize in telehypnosis for clients all over the U.S.

Whether you are battling anxiety, low self-esteem, going through a transition such as a career change or are dealing with past wounds, my hope is that you'll find a safe place to land as we work together to find a place that brings fulfillment and helps you reach your goals.
