Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Are you tired of struggling with anxiety?

Life is too short to spend your days stressed out and your nights worried and anxious.

Even though many things might be going well, sometimes we feel too tense to enjoy them.

Anxiety, fear and frustration can build up. They can take a toll on our most important relationships, suck the enjoyment out of our careers and take a toll on our health. It can be no easy task to shut off our worried, racing minds. When our feathers get ruffled, collecting ourselves can be hard.

Anxiety can:

Make us sweat bullets
Tie us up in knots
Exhaust us
Make us lose perspective
Cause or exacerbate physical health problems
Convince us to avoid dealing with people or situations
Make us irritable


If you're struggling with anxiety, worry or fear, or if anger and stress are getting to you, I would love to help.

Life's curve balls don't have to wreck your peace of mind.

After 20 years of working with clients, I know there are things that can help. With the right tools, you can get back on track. It's possible to learn to quell your worries, quiet your body and mind and enjoy more of the good stuff in life.

Call today and get started!

Helping people learn to get past the struggle with anxiety is something that I love.

I especially enjoy working collaboratively with you to find the most effective approach.

Because of my special interest in helping people with this issue, I've pursued quite a bit of advanced training in the treatment of anxiety disorders. This affords us the opportunity to take a flexible, holistic, integrative approach, one that includes both practical skills and a depth orientation. Both are important for long term healing. In therapy one size doesn't fit all, so we have the option of using a variety of modalities.

I hold advanced certifications in Emdr, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Internal Family Systems, Clinical Hypnosis and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
