I have additional experience in dealing with difficult physical illnesses and End of life and Hospice decisions. My personal experience has lead me from being a practicing Musician in my Youth, coming through Addiction issues, a heart attack and stroke and several failed relationships in between; to being a prosperous, sober and happy individual who seeks to share the wisdom that has been so freely shared with. me. I have a multi-disciplinary approach that includes but is not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy. For the past three years I have been a therapist to other therapists, but have recently made the decision to offer my skills to clients who desire to live their best life as the best version of themselves.
