I meet clients with compassion and a skilled, experienced intellect focused on helping you find lasting solutions quickly. I provide a safe and understanding space free of judgement. I won't waste your time or money, but I also want to take the time in the first sessions to get to know you and your situation well enough so that when we begin to apply solutions, they are strategic, effective and bring you lasting relief from your pain and concerns.
I enjoy doing counseling. I've been in private practice as a licensed doctoral psychologist for many years. I also understand the therapy process from having used counseling for myself. Give me a call and let see if I am a good fit for you and the situation you want help with.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Family Systems Therapy Looks at problems within the context of the family as a whole. It aims to improve communication and balance in family relationships.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.

I am a good couples’ and family counselor. I want clients to benefit from my training and experience helping people solve relationship problems. including those that occur in families, such as conflict between parents and children.
Substance abuse is a killing disease. But the mental health community continues to advance in remedies and strategies that provide hope and solid recovery. I am trained and certified in these life and family saving procedures. I can help.
My degree is in counseling psychology which equipped me with professional skill sets that help people in their individual lives deal with problems such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, loneliness and addictions. I have coached many people into solid recovery from substance abuse and other addictive behaviors.
The most important skill I offer clients is to help them become equipped to solve and deal with their relationship and personal individual problems. No matter how effective I may be, if you do not learn how to manage your life yourself, you become dependent on your counselor or coach to do that for you. My long-term goal for you is that you grow and mature in your capacity to manage the complexity of your life.
