About

Hello, and thank you for visiting my page. Clearly there is something currently going on in your life that has you reaching out for some assistance, and you have come to the right place. I have almost 20 years of experience in assisting clients in working through life stressors that can cause anxiety, depression and overall discontent with their situation. I am very personable and trustworthy, taking time to build rapport with my clients so they feel they can share even the most upsetting or embarrassing details of the situation with me. I take a nonjudgmental, reflective approach, meaning, I let the client guide our process determining which issues to address at what time. I do not tell people what to do, rather assist them in coming to their own conclusions about which choices to make (or not make) as the case may be. I borrow strategies from a variety of therapeutic modalities including cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, and relational therapy. I have worked in a variety of settings including schools, hospitals and the criminal justice system, each of which has provided me with a unique perspective and skill set. I have extensive work in grief and trauma, particularly as it pertains to victims of crime. I use the various experiences I have had professionally to draw from when working with each new client. If you are looking for a counselor to really work with you, help you evaluate your strengths and use them to move forward, I would be a good fit for you.
