I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.

There are issues in your life, and you feel stuck. You want a better life. Better based on what? RE-define, Re-Think, Re-Phrase, and Re-Define your Better!

I love working with individuals, couples, or families, and my approach is warmly personalized, collaborative, and open-minded. I work to create a brain and body approach to healing for each individual I help. I encourage seeking balance in life and helping people feel emotionally and mentally inspired. I also take a trauma-informed approach in helping others improve an understanding of themselves, their behavioral obstacles, and how these instances have affected their lives.

I love my work. I have really enjoyed getting to know my clients over the past 35 years. Although I consult with adults, adolescents & children, I also see many couples and families. My clients are never the problem, they have problems and need solutions and strategies to get "unstuck" or make changes in their lives. I have also found personal, business and career coaching helpful to many clients. I am the owner of a large practice with psychologists, psychiatrists & counselors. If my hours or approach does not fit your needs I will find someone who can assist you.
