I especially enjoy working with those interested in exploring: socialized masculinity and sexuality (e.g. regulating sexual behaviors / OCSB-informed, desire discrepancy, body image, values and beliefs...), the specific interaction of faith/spirituality and sexuality (e.g. shame, trauma...), intersectional identity work (i.e. our complex and interacting layers as people), surviving dating, navigating life transitions, and living with anxiety (e.g. social, highly sensitive person...) and depression.

I want my clients to know they are not alone, and that healing and peace are possible. Each Client has incredible worth and value.​ I offer a safe and nonjudgmental setting and partnership where you can share your burdens and offload the weight on your shoulders. Whether your struggle is anxiety, depression, or life/relationship issues, I hope to help you get to the root of your concerns and empower you to overcome. Especially for Clients who have trauma from experiencing abuse tactics such as gaslighting, manipulation, and any violation of boundaries, I hope to validate your experience and help you claim your life back.

You tell yourself that if you just do everything perfectly, you’ll feel okay. As long as the house is spotless. And your family is ideal (or at least looks that way on social media.) If you always say yes, constantly keep a smile on your face, and never complain about anything – then everything should be fine. But no matter how hard you try, you can’t shake this feeling of dread. And all of your efforts to appear perfect are taking a toll. To-do lists never end. No one seems to know the real you. You’re terrified that at any moment, there’ll be a crack in your mask and everyone will see you for who you truly are; this cant go on.

Life doesn't always turn out like we expected or planned. All of us experience different degrees of struggle on our individual journey. Over the last 8 years I have been working with adolescents, teens, college students, adults and athletes in areas of anxiety, depression, stress, grief, life transitions and much more. I believe people who struggle with anxiety and depression can thrive when they have a safe place to process what they are feeling. I believe that being present on your path, growing toward your goals and healing any past or present hurt can help you be the very best version of yourself.

I am a Licencsed Mental Health Counselor specializing in working with an adult population as well as seniors suffering with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Life is filled with a myriad of challenges which often makes proper choice difficult to decide. It is prudent and wise to seek guidance when faced with such situations.

I utilize various modalities such as depth psychology and narrative therapy.

Everyone has his or her own reason for spending time with a professional counselor. Some have a specific problem that they wish to overcome. Others just need the opportunity to talk to a caring, nonjudgmental person. Still others may need some help learning how to communicate with their loved ones. Whatever your reason for seeking a counselor, I can promise that you will be warmly welcome in my office. As a counselor with a heart for healing, it is my goal to help you turn your pain into victory. I would be delighted to accompany you on your journey to wholeness & health.

Welcome. I offer you an opportunity to feel safe and supported, to get centered and refreshed. I have a wide range of experience and am well trained in treating mood disorders, relationship concerns and trauma.

Everything we do involves relationships; so when we are not feeling effective in this part of our lives, other parts suffer as well. Over the past twenty five years I have worked on relationships with teenagers and adults through individual, family and couples work. My specialty is effective communication coaching in order to get needs met in relationships. I do this through the lens of family systems work, asking thoughtful questions and offering perspective. Anyone who is willing to walk through the therapy door and want more out of their relationships is who I welcome in my office.

For the past 30 years I have worked as a mental health counselor to assist people who are struggling with depression and anxiety; those who have had their life shaken by a death, divorce or other life losses; those who feel stuck and want to get their life flowing again;those who struggle with obstacles to help attain their goals,those who deal with chronic health conditions;as well as those who are facing major life changes and need an objective,helpful listener.I have also worked with relationships that need understanding, healing and forgiveness.Change is always possible.

The basis of my counseling style is my belief that people are inherently good, and that with support, most people are capable of great change and personal growth. I believe that the relationship between the therapist and client is one of the most important parts of therapy, and I want to provide empathetic, non-judgmental support as my clients navigate the personal challenges they are experiencing. I believe that people usually seek counseling because something is causing them emotional or psychological discomfort or pain, and that counseling can often help determine the cause of that pain and hopefully alleviate it.
