I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in Penacola, FL. I have over 30 years experience in mental health and substance abuse. I specialize in relationships/co-dependency issues. I am trained in Family Systems, Brief Therapy, Hypnosis, and I would say my approach is more eclectic, depending on the needs of the client. I also have 11 years experience working with active duty military and their families and veterans.
