***Web-based Therapy is Available.*** Being a therapist is a calling for me; it is part of the reason I was born. In adolescence, I was the friend who listened to people’s problems and offered different ways of viewing unsettling situations.

For those reading these words, I desire the same for you. I have assisted hundreds of adolescents, adults, children, couples, and families with improving their lives. I find people need to talk, be heard, and understood without judgment to relinquish anger, anxiety, and fear. I offer a setting where people do this. We work on challenges together, so that mental health and wellbeing can be pursued. Please call or email me to set up an appointment. I look forward to seeing the positive changes to come.
