Together, we will focus on solutions & help you learn to cope with life's challenges. Eclectic approach with emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy and psycho-education. The key to therapy is the relationships that I develop with patients.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)in private practice I work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with a variety of concerns including relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, anger management. I work from a cognitive behavioral framework.

Many of my patients had never been in therapy before and were very hesitant. However, after just one visit they often report feeling at ease and very comfortable. After completing therapy they often report life-altering changes, progress and great satisfaction.

I work with clients to identify what is causing them distress and help them learn new coping strategies to deal more effectively with problems. I treat each client’s problems on an individual basis and believe in treating clients with respect.

I am a values-based therapist using empirically supported treatments for Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

It can be daunting to reach out for help and start counseling, but I am here to make it as comfortable and supportive as possible. If you have been feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or experiencing sadness, I know how to help support you.

Through both insight and action, I help clients to find and use their strengths to create the life they want to live. I help clients to identify what changes they would like to make in their lives and together, we work to meet those goals.

I ask clients about their best hopes for each session. I use a direct approach and humor to build rapport and find tools that work. I focus on preserving marriage/family relationships, and support those struggling with depression, anxiety, addiction, and divorce issues.

I approach each person’s unique story from a nonjudgmental position, as I seek to understand their perspective in an effort to help them overcome the challenges that are keeping them from moving forward in life.

I have been working in the field of mental health and substance abuse for 20 years. I use grace, compassion and humor to connect with my clients and ensure that my office is a safe environment. I am a Christian and Christ is at the center of all I do.
