Great to meet you!

I have been in the counseling and mental health field for over 30 years with a wide range of experience. I work with adults, adolescents, and families within the full gamut of counseling issues, ranging from marriage and relational issues to addiction to symptom management. I have a Master of Arts degree in marriage and family counseling along with a minor in biblical theology. I have lived and worked in Texas, Virginia, and North Carolina, as well as England and Ireland.

My approach to therapy

We will take a practical, solution-focused and values-based approach for whatever issues you are facing in a warm, collaborative way. I really enjoy working with couples and families to help you gain true, healthy intimacy in your most important relationships. While I do have a Christian worldview and values that will be sprinkled into conversation, I welcome all comers.

What you can expect from me

From the first session, you'll be able to begin to gain handles on your emotional struggles as well relational complexities. We may consider take-away homework to include simple writing assignments, articles to read, as well communication exercises to practice.
