I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families. My experience working in schools and in private practice has allowed me to work with a wide variety of clients and families. I have worked with clients’ ages 11 through 70.

I believe that the most effective therapy happens when there is a strong therapeutic relationship based on mutual trust and respect. I believe when clients feel heard and understood, they are most open to growth and change. I work with my clients to help them create the change they are seeking. Together we identify the concerns, develop a plan and work through stumbling blocks toward growth.

I have significant experience and success working with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, self esteem concerns, unexpected life changes, women’s issues, family relationships, and school success. I use a variety of approaches and theories including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy.
