Great to meet you!

I have twenty five + years experience in mental health and developmental disabilities, (inpatient and outpatient). including provide individual, couples/marital therapy, family therapy, parent child counseling, and have a knowledge and effects of psychotropic medication.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is a Psychodynamic/Client Centered approach including listening/learning/empathizing and obtaining a psychodynamic framing of client's problem situation and affirming my perception with client. I maintain a solution focused mindset in pursuit of a positive outcome.

What you can expect from me

A session with me can be characterized as an empathetic trusting and safe supportive relationship/environment where the therapist is present and engaged with the client. The client can expect to be working together to explore and address his or her concerns that can lead to a productive therapeutic journey.
