Welcome

You may be seeking to enhance your skills to deal with the challenges of your daily life, or you may be looking to improve your coping skills to deal with loss or grief, life transition, trauma, sexual abuse, negative core beliefs about self that can undermine growth and progress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger management, domestic violence, and addictions or substance abuse.

Making wise changes in your life can affect your future and give your life more meaning and purpose. A choice to seek a Mental Health Professional can help you transform beyond your current discomfort or pain, and you will learn skills to help you tolerate pain and deal with problems more effectively.

I perceive the therapeutic relationship to be a powerful and collaborative process. l do everything within my professional capacity to make our joint effort of working towards your treatment goals, as effective as possible.

To achieve success in our work; one or more treatment approach is used in working with each individual according to his/her specific and unique needs. Some of these may include:

• Somatic Experiencing
• EMDR
• Gottman Method Couples' Therapy
• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Skills Training
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
• Christian Counseling
• Domestic Violence Counseling

I have counseled families, individuals, and couples with a variety of treatment needs. I have coached them through problems related to family stress, grief, finances, parenting, and divorce.

Choices you make today affect your future. Making small changes can add up to a more fulfilling life. In a safe confidential and supportive environment we work together to maximize your success.
