Aetna and Quest Behavioral Health

Specializes in

Anxiety, Depression, Family Issues, and Relationship Issues

Great to meet you!

I specialize in helping adults, families, children and teens who are struggling with the ever increasing stress we face on a daily basis. Often symptoms manifest as anxiety, depression and can even cause physical pain. I have worked with families and children who are struggling with mental health for over a decade, and I understand how frustrating it can be to find the right kind of help. I'm here to offer practical solutions and support as we work together to achieve positive changes.

A bit about my approach to therapy

You are the "expert" when it comes to knowing yourself, and I will act as a guide through your journey of self exploration to help you achieve your goals.

What you can expect from our first session

We will work together to create acheivable goals that will increase positive thinking and lead to overall happiness with your quality of life.

Open-minded
