I have been working with families who are in crisis ( children with behavioral issues and teens who have trouble functioning). I have extensive experience with substance abuse (heroin,pills, and alcohol) issues, that have been affecting teens/parents. I can help parents and couples, dealing with relationship problems-many times tantruming children or depressed/anxious teens are a factor. Working with the entire family, or just the individual is my specialty. I have experience working with children who have trauma history, ADHD, anxiety or depression. I am able to assist parents in deciphering the IEP/504 options, if needed.

If you are experiencing a significant life transition, struggling with relationship and/or marital issues, reproductive and postpartum challenges, impaired fertility, difficulty with depression, anxiety, and communication issues then I believe I can be a support to you. If you have experienced trauma I am here to help you. I work very effectively with individuals while utilizing the perspective of the individual within a relational system. I have a special interest in working with first responders and their families and I believe it is a privilege to help those who protect and serve others.

I offer evidence-based, client centered, treatments delivered with compassion, humor and intelligence. My job satisfaction comes from seeing large changes in my clients over a short period of time. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and include elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Art Therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation.

“I believe that therapy is a platform that allows people to understand themselves better. The therapeutic relationship provides an opportunity to overcome challenges by trialing coping skills and talking through issues to gain new insight. Engaging in activities of wellness that supports the whole individual promotes continuous healing that allows us to connect to ourselves and others on a deeper level.”

Dan (he/his) specializes in working with young adults and is particularly passionate about working with individuals with ADHD.

Working with individuals, couples, and families, Dan is passionate about celebrating and acknowledging neurodiversity as a unique strength and supporting clients in the challenges and successes that arise in navigating a neurotypical world.

Stress comes in all shapes and sizes and is not limited to trauma, loss, heartache, and change.

I specialize in working with children and adolescents and understanding their emotional needs.

I also believe in the value of family systems and support as they are important in a persons life and essential for progress.

Throughout my career as a clinical social worker, I have worked with teenagers and families. I love young people: their enthusiasm and their passion for life, even their confusion and their uncertainties. As for the parents of those teenagers, I can only empathize with you. Even experienced clinicians struggle parenting teens when they're your own. And the toll parenting a teenager can take on a marriage: it is undoubtedly why most of the couples I have worked with, sought marriage therapy during the time their children were teenagers or young adults. I understand their pain and want to help relieve it.
