Anxiety, depression, anger, frustration & poor choices may be the result of hidden influences that are stopping you from being what you want to be. Many situations can be improved through increasing personal awareness. My job is to help you identify real options for your unique situation based on your goals.

My approach is direct & teaches you how to take control of your life rather than feel as if you are only reacting by habit of situations & having the same negative outcomes. This is effective with adults and couples who want to experience positive change in their lives.

With over 20 years of experience as a licensed clinical therapist I can help you gain a better understanding of what is influencing your thoughts and actions; a rational approach that is directed to identify both core & and below the surface beliefs to make changes that are more likely to produce positive outcomes.
