I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with many years in private practice helping people with all sorts of problems in life. Because I’m older, I’ve had many of the problems that are common to us all and dealt with them successfully, including life transitions, relationship problems, weight control, career difficulties, financial challenges, weight control, and mood and emotional problems. Because I discovered an effective weight loss method, losing over 100 pounds permanently after 25 years of dieting failure, weight control has become a speciality.
As far as I can tell, life can be pretty difficult at times for just about everyone, but solutions to those difficult problems can be found. I love helping my clients find them.
If you’ve had problems like weight control, depression, work, financial or family problems, learn from someone who’s been there, handled them, and now helps others. To schedule a session, click on the “My website” button to the right.

I provide a common sense approach to counseling, incorporating mainly Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Rogerian therapy, behavior therapy, and an eclectic mix, utilizing every idea I've found useful in years of training and experience. In our initial meeting, we'll get to know each other and identify what you want from therapy and what your best outcome would be if all goes well.
