It is my honor to help others successfully navigate the challenges in life. Whether it’s difficulties with alcohol or drugs, relationships, or emotional problems I offer realistic, creative, and solution-focused assistance to help people become the people they were meant to be. My focus in counseling is to do everything I can to help others achieve what they want and live a more fulfilling life. I believe people have the solutions within themselves to address the issues they identify but occasionally need some help along the way to achieve their goals. One of the distinctive parts of the services I offer is that I enjoy meeting my clients in a setting that is most comfortable to them which is usually not in some of the offices I partner with. I am willing to come to your office, visit your home, or meet you somewhere in the community where your confidentiality will be maintained. It is my honor to help others successfully navigate the challenges in life and I will work diligently to help you achieve your goals. I look forward to working with you to improve your quality of life, build on your own potential, and achieve personal goals. By the time we finish working together you should be able to do more than simply survive, but to thrive and have a more positive outlook by becoming the person you were meant to be in all areas of life with a concentration on prevention, exploration, growth, and forward movement.

Welcome. I am so glad you are here and want to support you in gathering information as you make this important decision to find either a therapist or a collaborative divorce coach. Choosing a therapist or coach involves finding someone with the right training and credentials but also someone with whom you will feel comfortable as you approach this challenging process. I am sure you are looking for someone with both experience and training in the type of difficulty you are experiencing and who practices in a way that fits your personality, values and goals. Though I provide both therapy and divorce coaching, I do not provide both services to the same person as they are distinctly different services designed to address very different needs. I hope that you will make yourself at home on my site and learn more about the services I provide, how I practice and if I might be a good fit for you or could help you find someone who would be a good fit. Though I have tried to anticipate your questions and concerns, I am sure that you may have questions that I have not addressed. You are welcome to call me to further explore those questions and/or concerns.

As a psychotherapist, my aim is to help clients attain their goals in order to be empowered and living in the present. By assisting a client through the process of change, one can embrace his/her potential and move forward in one's chosen direction. My approach is to understand a client's experience, help identify options for change, and engage a client in healing and transforming their life experiences. As a result, clients feel in control of their choices and lives. Additionally, I help children and adults with difficult life experiences to reengage in healthy relationships and continue on their life journey. I also work with clients impacted by trauma toward the goals of safety and healing. I am a Certified EMDR therapist and Approved Consultant. EMDR therapy helps the brain's natural ability to heal. I work with clients to promote healing and to foster safe, healthy development and healthy boundaries.
