“Many counseling/therapy approaches help people feel better, but "feeling better" may not be enough. I assist individuals in getting to the root cause of their issues, and change self defeating patterns that previously appeared to be deeply entrenched. Having over 28 years of experience allows me to gear my approach to healing based on each individual's needs in a safe, comfortable environment where exploration and change is made easier. Since often talking is not enough to truly heal, I specialize in an approach called Guided Self Healing.

Experience working in a variety of settings with adults, adolescents, groups, and couples, has taught me that goal directed treatment works best. I am active in every session, remaining aware of the goals we have agreed upon. I meet each individual at their own starting point and work from there.

Caring, goal-oriented, warm approach where humor is encouraged. Offering behavioral, cognitive, physical, Spiritual, energy, holistic interventions that take all of the individual into account. Located in downtown Concord. www.guidedselfhealing.org for information on one of the techniques I use. ASK FOR "WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE".”

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
