Welcome Veterans, Military, Civilians, and Seniors. I am now Licensed in both Florida and CT, current office location in Florida, with teletherapy in both CT and FL. Accepting Tricare, VA Community Care Network, Medicare, and most commercial insurances. You have a journey, and if there is stress, anxiety or other problems get in your way, lets walk the journey together and figure it all out. We will find your inner strength. Sometimes it helps to talk to someone you can trust. My office is quite private and calm. Let’s Talk.
Many years of counseling and therapy experience, providing help for clients with anxiety, anger, PTSD, or referred/mandated by legal system, substance abuse agencies, doctors, psychiatrist, or others. Experience with, relapse prevention, anger management, co-occurring disorders, women's issues, addiction and mental health issues.
Flexible schedule. I am easy going and empathetic; clients find it easy to open up and talk, often referring others. Collaborative treatment planning. Call or send, text or email; we can start talking, if you like what you hear, we'll schedule an appointment. Often that first call is such a relief.
