As a mental health counselor I provide Psychotherapy for individuals, families and groups. In my 30+ years of clinical practice, I have continued to expand upon my philosophy of human development and the expansion of each person’s capacity. Working with a collaborative approach, I assist my clients in building skills and strategies as together we uncover their uniqueness, and passion, while developing their purpose and potential. Through observation and positive feedback, my process, “The Five Steps For Healthy Change” was created to assist individuals of all ages and stages in moving from “Crisis To Capacity”.

My approach to psychotherapy, which relies heavily on research-supported methods in the Cognitive-Behavioral, Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) traditions, seeks to restore your path to that meaningful life by helping you navigate those painful emotions, thoughts, memories and experiences that seem to hold you back.
