What's My Approach to Therapy?

One of the most empowering things we do in a lifetime is to make a decision. Some of our greatest suffering comes from indecision, uncertainty, and self-doubt. Having been in the trenches of life's ordeals, I strive to provide my clients an authentic connection that is more laid back and personal, rather than too clinical or rigid. In my approach, you don't have to worry about being analyzed, judged, or labeled. Instead, you can feel comfortable and confident knowing that, along with my experience, we are simply two people, having a meaningful conversation, one which can reveal your best and happiest self, your healthiest relationship- much like finding gems long-hidden on a casual hike around a mountain. You decide how high you want us to go, and how many gems you'd like to find. If important to you, my work also explores and offers insights relating to values, meaning, purpose, decision-making and wisdom, as well as ideas for lasting success and fulfilment. My clients also experience unique and empowered results in dealing with grief, depression, stress and anxiety, managing anger, and finding their 'Calling' and career path.

My Practice & Services

I've been in private practice for 16 years and in the field for over 20 years. I offer a free 20 minute consult upon request. My work has been featured on TLC's My 600lb Life; I am also a Certified Anger Resolution Therapist. Please see my practice introduction video on

What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist

What inspires me in my work is knowing that I can not only influence and improve people's mental health, but that I can inspire change in their attitudes, characteristics, and all aspects of their lives. Yet, I too am human. I have sorrows and challenges like everyone else. As I integrate my experiences into my academic training, I continually become inspired as I see my skills continue to reach new levels. As a result, my ability to empower and guide others further amazes me! This process of experiencing, learning, and sharing, like inhaling and exhaling, brings me greater life!

On the Fence About Going to Therapy?

I can certainly relate! How do you decide it's time and how do you choose the 'right' person? We all have opposing feelings about something and feeling stuck is the worst! I understand the factors that make us reluctant to reach out, therefore I am especially conscious of addressing your concerns, honoring your time, and doing my best to ensure that your hard-earned money becomes a fantastic investment for your life- one of the best decisions for your success and peace of mind!
