I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with A Master's degree in Psychology. I have worked in the mental health field for over 30 years and have maintained a full-time private practice since 1994. I help adolescents and adults solve the tough problems they face individually as well as the challenges that arise in families, couple relationships, and in the workplace. I focus on solutions, strengths, and skill-building in addressing the sticking points in people's lives.

Healing work begins by providing a safe, non-judgmental space. As a collaborative relationship between client and therapist, effective treatment outcomes center on the client's sense of self-efficacy. My clinical approach and techniques include trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. These methods and techniques provide a unique and innovative delivery for behavioral health care.

My ideal client is someone who wants to actively pursue new paths to find their true, healthy self. Ideally, ready to do the work. I am here to challenge cognitive distortions. I will be a partner in brainstorming issues and goals. Hard work from the client and support from an intuitive counselor will clear the path to the answers within.

I have already counseled my ideal client. I worked with a client who came to me in her most significant time of need. She was ready to put in work and wanted to develop. She was diagnosed with Bipolar I and had several suicide attempts. She could externalize her mania and use fitness and wellness to push through her episodes. She is happy and healthy and uses her experiences to help others. My services involve psychotherapy using techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), with a trauma-informed framework.

As a therapist, I am most excited to see clients motivated to explore their unknown strengths, widen their horizons, increase their abilities to make informed decisions and lead a life of meaning as they define it. Everyone I have worked with brings to therapy a foundation upon which to grow. Regardless of the problem, an enhanced sense of self is possible. Instilling hope of something better in life is one of my greatest motivations, and assisting others in achieving their goals drew me to this profession.

There is no such thing as an ideal client. That is too boring. The way I do therapy is relaxed. I am not your average therapist, and I am not going to be like, "How does that make you feel?" but I am going to say, "What up! How are we doing today?" I never stop learning, and when you have me as a therapist, you will see that you will fall back in love with learning. Overall, I am just honored you allowed me to help you! Also, the best way to reach me is to Email over calling due to normally being in session, and I want to respond to you as quickly as possible!

I rely on my faith, an integrative education, and continual study of Ericksonian Hypnosis (please ask). My 28yr marriage to Jennifer, who has similar training in marriage & family therapy, and 4 kids--they all add greatly to my knowledge, awareness, and experience. Bridging good science, spirituality, and responsible biblical teachings while assisting my clients to recognize their resources defines my role as therapist. Very intelligent people seek therapy when it seems they have tried everything they know; yet, the struggle continues. Some seek therapy for help in discerning their options. It is not meant for us to do this alone.

My ideal client would be someone who is geared towards helping themselves and needing guidance on how to do so. Someone who has a grasp on the importance of the client putting in the work to truly help heal themselves but needing assistance ensuring they are doing things in a healthy and emotionally intelligent fashion. Talk therapy is very important for clients who even just want to come and vent, which I believe helps the mind unclutter.

Life is difficult. Relationships, families, past traumas, daily stressors, jobs and navigating all of it can have a major impact on our ability to feel happy and content. I want to join you on your journey to peace and finding the life you deserve. We will work as partners exploring what changes need to be made. Often the smallest shifts can make a monumental difference in our lives. I look forward to joining you on your path to mental wellness.

My ideal client is one seeking clarity, coping skills, and resolutions to the stressors or problems they are facing in life. Whether that be problems relating to anxiety, depression, family issues, work, school, or general life stressors, this client is one trying to find meaning and enact change to live a better and healthier life.

Whether you are struggling with a specific issue or just looking for a deeper connection, I can provide you the safe and sacred space to explore new coping techniques, cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness, and come to a place of resolution and inner peace. When I work with clients it is my highest intention to bring understanding, compassion and authenticity to each session to help you reach your goals to live your best life.

My ideal client would struggle with diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, or mood-related issues. This client would be self-motivated and have identified goals that are being held back or complicated by their mental health issues. The client would be able to identify areas that are strengths and weaknesses for themselves and would be willing to put forth the effort that is growth and change. Also, this client would be open to new and different suggestions for coping strategies or ways of thinking about difficulties they may experience in order to learn and grow.
