"It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness." This famous Eleanor Roosevelt quote can be applied to many situations. When we get stuck -- in a rut at work, in a stormy relationship, in a lukewarm marriage, with our children -- we suffer but are often pulled to focus on the problem rather than finding a solution. Sometimes, we're not aware of what the actual issue is. All we can do is try to avoid the pain, skirt problems, even pretend we are fine. We are blocked by fear -- another word for anxiety. Together, we can walk slowly through that fear, and find that light.

“I believe everyone deserves a chance; a chance at happiness, a chance at love, a chance at life, any CHANCE! I find extreme purpose as I assist individuals to find what satisfies them as well as presented barriers, restrictions, and issues faced in their journey. I strive to support them in finding peace and finding their own purpose.” My personal choices have lead me towards a career of advocacy and service on behalf of the abused, neglected and traumatized due to family violence and sexual assault. “Whatever issue you may be facing, you do not have to do so alone. Allow me to join you on the journey to find the Greater in YOU!”

Trained in CBT and hypnotherapy, I love helping people find their peace. Are you looking for treatment for anxiety, OCD, a phobia, or another panic-related disorder? Anxiety can feel awful. I help my clients find ways of feeling more relaxed, accepting and peaceful. I treat both men and women, adolescents to older adults and couples. Because I work in a college town, I see many students and professors and have become keenly aware of the unique stressors of life in academia though I enjoy treating individuals from all walks of life.

You are not alone. One of the most common experiences we share as humans are having ups and downs occur throughout our lives. Then messages that we tell ourselves start to pile on... "I'm not good enough", "I can't..", "what if..", and the "should, should, should" become our constant burden. This can become a downward spiral of events, thoughts, emotions and behavior. My focus is to connect with you to sort this out and develop messages that help you overcome suffering. My practice focuses on ages 14 - 65 on issues including: Addiction, Anger, Depression, Anxiety, Domestic Violence, Overcoming Shame and Life Transitions.

I utilize an integrative approach to therapy. My primary treatment approach is client centered therapy which allow me to follow my clients lead in session. This approach also assists clients with self-actualization and growth. One of the most important primary needs of individuals is to have secure emotional attachments. Therefore, I utilize a systems approach and attachment processes in my work with couples and families. I have a special interest in working with veterans and active duty military couples and families.

I believe that good therapy is not merely reducing symptoms but helping you experience the “zest” of life. In other words, the main goal of therapy should be to help people thrive not just survive. Whether dealing with individuals, couples, families or groups, I integrate clinically effective treatment with a respectful, compassionate relational style. You might wonder, "What type of people do you work with clinically?" That's simple: I work with courageous people who want more out of life. For people with a Christian faith background, I have specialized training to help you integrate your faith with therapy, if you are interested.
