Personal Statement

We all know how hard life can be! Sometimes we need extra support to cope. If you are having significant pain and distress due to life and/or relationship issues, I would love the opportunity to help you push through this. I am committed to helping you become more positive, confident and effective with the challenges thrown at us. I am here to serve you!

I have been in private practice several years and have over 30 years experience in the field. I have several years experience working in the community mental health sector, in children’s services through state agencies, as well as psychiatric hospital inpatient experience.
