I once told a friend that finding the "right" therapist (one that they would mesh well with) is similar to dating; it can be slightly uncomfortable until they find the right fit. Because I understand that seeking assistance to address individual, couple, or family issues is a deeply personal & brave process, I provide a compassionate and trusting environment to all my clients. I believe that therapy is a goal-directed, collaborative process between therapist and client(s). I can assist in helping you identify needs/goals, processing unresolved feelings/experiences, & successfully reaching your established goals in a timely manner. I enjoy and have years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, & groups, helping them improve their quality of life as well as strengthen their relationships. I am most experienced in the areas of Anxiety, Depression, Mental Health, Personal Relationships, and Addiction. I've had the opportunity provide therapy in an array of settings, including a community mental health center and an intensive outpatient substance use disorder facility, and private practice.
