LPC, 49 years of experience
I have worked with adults and children for about 49 years. I get great satisfaction in working together with my client's to achieve a better quality of life. If you struggle with managing anxiety, depression, or trauma symptoms you are not alone and I would love to attempt to help. We can work together to find solutions to the challenges you face!
During the first session my goal is for us to get to know one another. I would like to hear about the challenges you are facing and what has and has not worked for you in the past. After hearing your story, we will discuss my recommendations and answer any questions you might have.
My greatest strength is that I care. I believe that my life experiences, education and training allow me to help others enjoy an improved quality of life.
I have worked with both children and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD symptoms.

I have worked with those who experienced trauma for 48 years. It is difficult to live in this world without being traumatized. It is clear that adverse childhood experiences often have a profound impact on our physical, emotional and psychological development as well as long range health outcomes. Trauma can also have an equally profound impact on adults. There are quite a number of strategies that can help to reduce that negative impact. You are not alone.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a method of assisting clients in identifying cognitive distortions, evaluate their validity and replace with more accurate beliefs about self and others.
