About

Have some of your life’s issues caused your life to be difficult or unmanageable? Perhaps it is time for you to invest in yourself… You will have a safe space to be who you are and together we can embark on your journey to a better life. My desire is to assist you in navigating from where you are to where you want to be. I am a seasoned counselor and love being a “Change Agent” in other’s lives. Over the years, I have developed a multi-modality approach, which simply means that there are many therapies and techniques I can utilize. However, the relationship and trust between the client and the therapist is paramount. The more common reasons why people seek a counselor such as anxiety, depression, marital stress, parenting, financial and other mental health issues are certainly in my skill sets. However, more complex mental/emotional issues are also in my scope of practice. In addition to working as a therapist, I have spent years working in psychiatry which has given me a more global perspective to assist my clients. My techniques range from cognitive therapy to advanced, deep therapeutic techniques. I have specialties in working with trauma, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) and a host of emotional/mental issues that also a have biological component. I also use scientifically brain-based declarations, breathing, mediation, and thought stopping/redirection to therapeutic approaches that will provide excellent outcomes.
