Who am i?

from a very young age i knew I was interested in helping people, which explains why I have lots of education (Ph.D., M.A., M.P.C., M.H.S., B.G.S. and, of course, the l.c.p.c.).  For nearly 30 years I have worked with people who, like you, have chosen to actively grow—and push past the anxiety that accompanies mindful growth. I will assist you in figuring out why, and how, you are making the decisions you make.  you'll understand where those decisions stem from and determine whether those same choices are serving you well today.  or, whether they need to be reassed and reevaluated. You will learn to trust yourself more fully and feel more confident about the choices you make. You will gain insight into who you are as you further develop your mastery of thoughtful decision-making. I will accompany, assist, cheer, encourage, and ask hard questions of you along your journey.

What help will you receive?

I have helped people deal with a wide variety of personal challenges throughout twenty-five years. Sometimes, it isn’t so defined as “I have an issue with X” but rather it’s more like a nagging feeling of something being “not quite right” or just wanting to get an outsider’s perspective on what is happening. If you feel that way, sort of unsure, that’s okay - come and visit with me. If you don’t need therapy I will tell you that. If I am not the right person for you, I will help you find your therapist.
