These are unprecedented times that challenge all of us. As humans, we perceive uncertainty as a threat, which can lead to anxiety or depression in otherwise healthy individuals. In my practice, my associates and I focus on attachment and trauma as root causes of anxiety and depression. We go beyond symptom relief to help our clients understand how they came to be anxious or depressed and what to do about it.

I am pre-licensed counselor working with clients seeking to change unhealthy life-style patterns attributing to feeling disconnected from intentions, core values, beliefs, character & self. Patterns and experiences may include anxiety, trauma, depression, relational and other adjustment concerns. The approaches used integrate holistic modalities with existing evidenced-based treatments & prior successes to create the client's fully equipped toolbox. These resources offer an empowering, non-judgmental approach toward sustained self-care removing the stigma of mental health being separate from body & spirit for whole self-wellness.

With over 10 years of experience in providing psychotherapy, I am adept at helping people of all ages (4 and up) handle depression, anxiety, stress, loss, relationship problems, and transitions. I am trained to utilize both cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic approaches and create an approach that is unique to each individual. When working with children and adolescents, I collaborate with parents and focus on building coping and communication skills that will last a lifetime. In addition to individual and family therapy, I also provide couples counseling.

Works with individuals and couples to inspire and promote self-empowerment through life experiences. I am passionate about helping individuals and adolescents to develop healthy ways to cope and tools to build strong relationships. I provide individual therapy in a safe and supportive environment. My therapeutic approach is centered upon the use of strengths-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychotherapy approach. I believe “You Are What You Speak” and that a positive mindset helps cultivate change-creating mental and physical stability.

I am a strengths based clinician who feels strongly that with the right support anything is possible. In session, I want to determine where you are, and how I can help you get where you are going. My client focus is children, adolescents, and families. I began my work in the field focused on women's issues, domestic violence, and the road from victim to survivor. For the last 14 years I worked with youth and their families providing individual and family therapy.

Are you feeling frustrated in your marriage? Are you tired of having the same fight over and over again without anything changing? Do you have sexual concerns? With over a decade of clinical experience in treating couples who are struggling to connect emotionally and resolve conflicts, I understand how frustrating relationship problems can get. At the same time I also understand how difficult and even embarrassing it can be to call a counselor and admit that your relationship needs some help. But let me assure you that the discomfort of reaching out for help is well worth it.

Thank you for visiting my page! I have worked in the fields of mental health and addiction for over 23 years with individuals and families struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD and trauma, addiction, stress management and overall lack of satisfaction in life. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where you have the opportunity to engage in self-exploration and resolve some of the obstacles preventing you from achieving complete balance in your life.
