Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been in practice for over 20 years. Before becoming a therapist I was an executive in Tech, and have experience in Corporate America as well as being a mental health professional. I know how hard it can be to balance a career with family life and still have time for yourself. I have specialized experience in trauma, abuse, and anxiety and and am also a hypnotherapist. I specialize in rapid results giving you tools to change your situation quickly in an emotionally painless way.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session will concentrate on oulining your goals for treatment, mapping out a treatment plan and outlining explaining what modalities and methods of treatment we will be using. I want you to fully understand why we are doing what we are doing, and why it's the best way to achieve your goals BEFORE we begin.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am a master at breaking down complex situations into easily understood concepts that can be quickly understood and changed. I'll give you tools to use in the present to change your situation, or ways to look at situations in new and novel ways that eliminate anxiety, depression, anger and grief. I'm the commando therapist that will go with you into the dark places and I've got your back as we charge the line together to create meaningful change in your world. Pull on my strength and enthusiasm to get you over the hard parts so you can walk again with your head held high!

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I'm the therapist for people who hate the idea of therapy. My clients tend to be the type that want rapid results that are pragmatically based and can be applied to real world situations. I have love working with trauma survivors and have worked with hard core issues of child abuse, combat and war survivors, violent crimes and human trafficking. Because I spent the first half of my career in Corporate America I also have specialized experience with executive burnout and the management and career stress. I work like a psychological consultant that will help you move to the next level using your learning style, personal goals, and lifestyle requirements.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Many times we find ourselves stuck when we don't realize our beliefs and interpretations of reality are just beliefs and interpretations. I help people open up their thinking so that they can step outside of limiting patterns of thinking and ingrained beliefs and create their reality based on their authentic values and the meanings that work for them personally.

Couples Counseling

We sometimes forget that a relationship is a negotiation involving give and take to get to a win/win for both parties. You would never write a contract in business where you got everything and your client gets nothing yet in relationships we sometimes become unbalanced in our give or take position. I work with people to help them get back to center where both parties can thrive and grow.

Grief Therapy

I have specialized experience in the treatment of frozen grief and helping clients move on from traumatic losses. Often times the trauma of how someone passes blocks our ability to connect with positive memories of them. I help people move through the trauma of the loss and find new meaning and purpose in life again.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

It is surprising how difficult it can be just to be present in the moment without the dialog and constant judgement of what is happening. Resistance is just struggling against what is. I help people get neutral and accept the what is, so they can change or ignore it without spinning out in the judgement about what it is, what is should be, or why it's wrong.

Hypnotherapy

Your subconscious mind is the operating system that runs the computer we call your mind. Hypnotherapy allows us to rewrite the "code" so the rule execute differently automatically. Change happens instantly and automatically without struggle, and it's emotionallly painless. Great for anxiety, trauma, heartbreak, frozen grief, and addictions.
