About

It takes courage to reach out for support, this is the second phase of your process; the first is the acknowledgement that you need support and making the decision to move forward. I have been a professional counselor for over 15 years. My approach to helping others is positive, encouraging, solution focused, problem solving and crafted to meet the individual client need. The value and benefit of engaging in a trusting, confidential and respectful helping relationship has the potential to meet, and help you overcome, many of your needs.

Different individuals need different things. Using skills, training, and personal creativity, I blend different elements from various psychotherapies to craft a personalized approach that best fits your needs.

I believe the whole person must be addressed and will consider how your health might be impacting your mood.Aside from being a counselor I am a Christian and am available to discuss your presenting issues from a faith perspective. I look forward to hearing from you!
