Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 25 years of experience helping people with a myriad of challenges and conditions. My counseling style is direct, warm, and interactive. You should expect to be treated with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels.

My approach to therapy

My approach is situational, depending upon your specific needs. In general, I utilize a few approaches including, but not limited to person-centered, emotionally focused, internal family systems, cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive, and motivational interviewing.

What you can expect from me

With your assistance we will devise a plan of action to work through what you deem to be important. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to walk with you, support and empower you.
