I help others understand themselves and manage change. My main goal is to provide quality counseling services that empowers others and leads to a sense of strength and well-adjustment. Specifically, I can help you gain insight into your issues, look at past, present, see if anything has impacted who you are today, and how it affects your present. I can also help you set goals for yourself to become a better you in the future. Treatment plans are developed to fit your individual needs and goals! Problems I treat, but not limited too, include: life changes (divorce, career, midlife, and/or not-so-midlife, geriatric), grief/loss, general substance abuse/addictions (alcohol/drugs, relationship, work, and/or sex), trauma, moral injury, domestic violence issues, sexuality problems, intimacy/sexual relationship issues, uncontrollable emotions, difficulty coping, increased/ongoing stress. Treatment modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Solution focused therapy, and other forms of therapy to help each unique individual and their situation(s).
