Great to meet you!

For the past 31 years, I have been passionate about providing skills and tools that support individuals, couples, and families to find healing connections. My education includes a PhD in Family/Marriage Therapy, MSW where I hold a license, and addiction treatment. In addition to other client populations, I have worked with U.S. Service Members and their family's overseas. This unique experience embellished my present work with First Responders and recovery from traumatic events with a resiliency nonvictim approach. Today, my work is focused on adults in life transitions with relational concerns who are seeking to improve their insights about self and personal growth.

A bit about my approach to therapy

You will find my therapeutic style direct and easy with open nonjudgmental dialogue. My approach is empathetic and based on supporting your resilience and strength to overcome life challenges. The focus of this client centered approach to treatment is to be in the “here-and-now.” If you are seeking a professional that will focus on your ability to change and create the life that you deserve, you will find my direct approach refreshing.

What you can expect from our first session

My focus is client centered, a collaborative approach, where the client is the expert in their lives. When a client feels empowered and able to use the skills presented, then our goals have been met. We cannot change the past; however, by changing perspectives and learning how to set healthy boundaries, the present becomes more manageable and leads to greater self-awareness and happiness in your daily life
