If you reach out I will respond to you (call or email back). I prefer to utilize a relaxed, approachable style to facilitate easy conversation and connection. I change therapy modalities periodically to best match where you are at with your process. I can use humor to help cut tension and set a pace for conversation that doesn't get too overwhelming. I believe that good therapy is like searching for treasure underwater - we want to go down, sift through the sand and mud, look for buried treasure, and periodically take moments to come up for air. I'm happy to meet you where you're at in your journey and help you find your way.

Have you ever uttered the words "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired" or felt like even when you are happy, that you are just waiting for the other shoe to fall? Do you have thoughts that no matter what you do, nothing seems to change and you find yourself in the same toxic relationships over and over again? Maybe you have even had thoughts that it's all too much and there never seems to be that proverbial light at the end of the tunnel that everybody keeps talking about. Yet something keeps you going, some small voice inside you knows you want more, knows you are capable of more.

Are you looking for a place to express concerns, heal wounds, change unhealthy patterns, gain insight, or find new effective ways to approach life? Are you wanting life to be different, but just not sure of the steps to take? I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Addiction Counselor, and I have an extensive background in treating Substance Abuse, Trauma, Depression, and Anxiety. Some of the treatment approaches I use include: EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Techniques.

Everything psychological is biological. It is equally important to maintain strong mental health as it is to maintain our physical health. We are not meant to be stuck, we are made to move and take action. I will work collaboratively with you to explore the ways that life events, relationships, and your connections affect how you think and feel about your life. You can grow your self-awareness, build back trust in yourself, and get back to the person you remember and want to be again. So, let’s talk and begin to make a change.

My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental and culturally sensitive safe space for youth, adolescents, and adults to feel seen, heard, and understood. I believe this is one of the crucial elements of growth and change, and I am ready to walk alongside you on your journey to wellness. It can be hard to process and unpack difficult emotions and past events & experiences alone. Together, we can explore all of the things that have shaped you into the person you are today.

Life is difficult, it’s even more difficult when we try to manage everything on our own. Together we will work to understand how your struggles impact you daily. As an objective professional I can assist you in finding your path forward to live your best life. I consider it an honor to be a part of your healing and personal growth.

My primary interest is to be a catalyst for positive change in your life and to help you work through the individual challenges that keep you from experiencing the kind of life you desire and deserve. Empowering you to work toward the dreams and goals that are important to you is my intention. I have experience and training in working with addictions, depression, anxiety, men's issues, trauma, and helping individuals build relationship skills and enhancing their self-esteem. Whenever possible, I like to help you early-on to assist you in establishing your vision for the future, then we will work together in making that a reality.

I will not be asking you "How does that make you feel?" YOU are the expert in you and my role is to help you understand things that are in your way and how to get rid of them. I served in Army, Navy and in the Marine infantry with three combat tours. I've had to work through my own trauma and struggles and after I did, I went back to get my degree so I can help people struggling to move forward. I partner with clients to help build understanding of where the problems originate so you can revise the narrative and move toward the person you want to be.

I currently have a waitlist and am not accepting new clients. If you are ready to dive deep, explore the depths of all that you are, and are eager to make changes within yourself, then it's time to connect. I am a firm believer that we all have the inner wisdom and ability to do the inner work that will lead us to changing our lives. I am honored to be with you along your journey, providing a space for you to explore who you are on every level. My hope is to have a co-created environment where you feel confident that you will walk away from each session knowing that you are working on the most important topic...You.
