Practice Information

Simple, Practical Assistance. I can take the lead as may be needed, offering personalized, clear treatment plans created with skills and tools, typically during the initial "no obligation" consultation.

My strengths based approach to treatment is to assess the present, identify the needs, develop an agreed upon treatment plan, and prepare you for a brighter future.

I assist in treatment for Depression, Resolving Stress, Anxiety, Fear and Panic, Restoring Relationships for Couples and Families, and Resolution of Trauma. I passionately desire you to be empowered to overcome life's toughest challenges.

I will listen carefully to what you have to say, ensuring that you feel heard, and understood. I will work with you to develop treatment plans, specifically designed to meet your needs. I will remain open to different therapeutic approaches and adjusting strategies as needed, to help you reach your goals and resolve issues. 

One unique feature of my practice is ongoing feedback to be sure that you are reaching the goals that you want to achieve. For this process, each session is reviewed and discussed with you to be sure that you are making progress at your own pace.

I welcome the opportunity to assist with Depression, Resolving Stress, Anxiety, Fear and Panic, Restoring Relationships for Couples and Families (including Reunification), and Resolution of Trauma in a life changing manner.

How to Identify Causes of Mental and Emotional Triggers

Have you ever been intensely frustrated by not know what is causing you to experience nagging and uncomfortable emotions, seemingly out of the blue? We have all experienced this scenario.
