About

On our best day, life is one damn thing after another. On our worst, it’s the same damn thing over and over again. Waking up to anxiety, depression, a dysfunctional relationship, or the slavery of addiction is a nightmare. Finding the courage to change the things we can may seem impossible.
For 39 years I have been helping people change. I use cutting edge techniques as well as tried and true methods including Brainspotting, EMDR, CBT, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Supportive Therapy and Clinical Hypnosis. I see therapy as a collaborative process where we combine our knowledge, strength, resources and imagination to find the solutions you need.
My experience includes the successful treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, living with chronic pain, sexual dysfunctions, relationship issues, and living with addiction, to name a few .
As a recovering person myself, with 18 years of sobriety, I take great joy in helping people achieve and maintain sobriety as well as dealing with the mental health issues that may be making that difficult.
I love my work and I look forward to helping you.
