About Me
We all face many obstacles in our lives and at times it seems overwhelming. Asking for assistance and reaching out is the first important step in creating a change. My goal is to guide you through life's challenges. As a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, I provide individual, family, and group therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I focus on individual and family strengths, identifying new perspectives, and gaining coping skills to help with the difficult times we encounter. I want to help you achieve your goals to live a meaningful, healthy, and satisfying life.
When working with individuals, families, or groups, I provide a safe and supportive environment with a direct approach to our sessions. I mostly see myself as an eclectic counselor who works to meet each individual's needs. However, I have many years of experience using behavioral therapy.
As a counselor I bring respect, empathy, and compassion to each session. I will help you gain insight into your feelings and understand your behavior to help reduce stress in order to make a positive change.
