I am a seasoned professional. My core belief is, "It's not life that make us crazy. It's what we think about life that makes us crazy." I have spent my adult life counseling and teaching students and patients how to incorporate this truth into their lives. I am a trained Cognitive Therapist and an REBT practitioner. These are both sides of the same coin and relate well to the words of Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report;...think on these things."

You are the expert on you. I am the expert on how to effect the changes in your life that you would like to see. I believe in the tenets of Cognitive Therapy because they have worked for myself and countless others. However, therapy is not magic, it requires hard work on the part of both the practitioner and the client. I look forward to working with you.
