My counseling approach is solution focused and goal oriented. To help my clients overcome their barriers, I create a partnership with them and utilize a multitude of diverse counseling techniques to provide them with better success. I have been in this profession since 1999 working with a variety of populations and settings including inpatient, intensive outpatient groups, family therapy, and individual psychotherapy with both adolescents and adults. I have worked closely with individuals that have struggled with addiction, family members of alcoholics and addicts, co-dependency, anxiety, depression, trauma and lack direction. I am a veteran's advocate and founder of a non-profit named Wheels4Change that serves veterans and their families and honor fallen Heroes. Wheels4Change develops events, programs and outreach to address military trauma.
