I am a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider and currently provide video and teletherapy counseling. With 20+ years experience in the counseling field, I have witnessed couples, adults, and adolescents achieve renewed hope and happiness. Personal change happens through short-term therapy and may last a lifetime. If you are tired of working hard and achieving little or no success, it's probably time to receive professional help. My specialty areas include marriage counseling, anxiety, depression, family counseling, sexual addiction and pornography, and spiritual issues.

Welcome to my practice! I specialize in working with children, adolescents, families and adults. I work hard to create a safe space for you to explore your needs and goals. There are often times when we just can't find the "right" words to describe or process what we are going through. As a registered Play Therapist, EMDR trained provider, and ITCT and TFCBT certified counselor, I help you find a way to express yourself that doesn't rely on words alone.

In my ten years as a counselor, it's been my privilege to care for men, teens, and couples wrestling with depression, stress, and anxiety; addiction (drugs and alcohol; gambling; sexual...); the grief involved with divorce; the struggles associated with life's transitions; difficulties in school and relationships; and family conflict. My hope is that the men and women I talk to would be able to experience intimacy in their relationships, fullness of life, and find success in their daily lives.

There are times we could all use some extra support, someone to listen, and feedback from someone who can approach our lives with a little bit of objectivity. This is where talking to someone like me can be a good option. My job is to provide you with a safe place where you can talk without the fear of being judged or criticized. I will listen. I will also challenge your thinking by providing you with a different perspective, and together we'll work toward a little more clarity in your life.

There is a great need for a place where they can feel safe, secure, and validated. I believe I am able to provide this for my clients. A place where you can truly feel understood, a haven where you don’t have to feel so alone. My top priority is providing individualistic compassionate care.

If you struggle with, depression, anxiety, frustration, or anger issues. If you find yourself a victim of your circumstances, and you want to give up please don't! Do you believe nothing can change for you? Stop that thinking, because that's a lie! Life is a journey. If you have given up today is the day you restart your journey. Health in any form is not a destination because no one can be perfected in the natural. However, you can become comfortable and satisfied with the journey you are on and learn skills to propel yourself forward.

I love working with best friends who are trying to get their sexual spark back. Many of my clients have been together for years and actually get along pretty well. They have good communication, they are partnered well and they treat each other with respect. However, they struggle to want to have sex with one another. They love each other and enjoy each other's time, but they struggle to take sexual chances, try new things and have fun in the bedroom. They essentially have "friend zoned" each other. My work is to help give these couples that special nudge to make sex a priority and enjoy sex again as a team.

Utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral approach I address a wide variety of issues, including low self-esteem, anxiety and depression. The way we think affects the way we feel which affects our responses to those around us. In Couples' counseling I emphasize the importance of being mindful of the negative scripts triggered by your partner and identifying ways to become the partner you want to be.
