I was never was a big fan of the small talk culture, so let’s get straight to the point: I am a professional catalyzer. In reality it is called a licensed professional counselor. What I actually do ruins people’s illusions and narratives that they have created, which hold them back from living a life they truly want. The challenging part is not ruining people’s illusions and narratives, it’s walking them through the thin ice of the fear that reclaiming the life they want to live is worth going through the letting go of things they used to comfort themselves with.

Beginning the exploration of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors is a courageous challenge. I view people as experts in their own lives who sometimes need assistance in shedding light on what may be getting in the way of achieving their goals. Being able to begin this journey in an atmosphere of non-judgement and understanding can help you recognize what you already know, and areas of necessary growth. I have experience with depression. anxiety, grief/loss, and trauma/PTSD. I am a seasoned clinician that has successfully helped many people, possibly much like you. I look forward to hearing from you, and possibly working with you.

Currently accepting HSA/private pay clients. Therapy can help shift something within our control or change how we relate to things outside our control. This might look like understanding why we're repeating personal patterns and what we can do to change them or developing healthy strategies and boundaries to deal with people, places, and things we can't change. We'll work to identify the patterns of emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships currently showing up in your life, and how you want to adjust them to live a life more in alignment with what you truly value. A life enabling you to find and lean-in to your best self.

I see tweens, teens, college students, adults, and parents: One of the hardest things as a parent is watching your child/teen suffer, whether it be from anxiety, OCD, depression, intense emotion, or social challenges. You want to support your child but feel at a loss. You may feel like the tools you've used for parenting and connecting with your child no longer work. Navigating the demands on your time and the emotions of your child feels impossible. You're suffering, too.

If you or someone close to you has lost a loved one to death, sickness, or the ending of a relationship, you know how difficult it can be to readjust to life without them.

I have 30 years of experience helping clients to identify and heal the sources of discomfort that bring them to counseling. Whether their concerning issues are situational, biochemical, or a long standing pattern of behavior, my approach is to always start with where the client is and what they are wanting out of counseling. I have extensive experience working with late teens and adults, both men and women. My practice includes individuals and couples work which also includes the LGBTQ community.

While many may hope to attain a quick solution to their struggles through the work of therapy, it is my ultimate goal that the psychological treatment facilitates healing through meaningful self-discovery. As a therapist, I strive to be a witness to stories you may have never told anyone before, including yourself. Every part of your life presents its own uniqueness and complexity. I believe that the inherent safety and trust found within the therapeutic relationship are paramount as therapist and patient embark on this exploration of your past and present experiences.
