    I provide counseling for individuals and couples experiencing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, life transitions, pre-marital, and sexual issues. I enjoy helping individuals and couples enhance and strengthen their relationships. My goal is to help individuals find greater meaning and purpose in life, and couples at all stages (dating, pre-engagement, marriage, and also re-marriage) develop greater intimacy in all aspects of their relationships. I believe that many individuals, couples, and families have created and endured narratives throughout their lives that may have caused difficulties, pain, and maybe some dysfunction. I desire to help these people to rewrite these narratives in ways that inspire hope and healing, and create new and healthy perspectives and lifestyles.

    Specializes in Anger Issues, Animal Loss +13 more
    My therapy style is to help clients feel relaxed, by establishing a comfortable atmosphere, sometimes using humor where appropriate, to help clients get to a place where they can speak genuinely and honestly about their lives and their struggles. Coming from a social work background of meeting the client where they are at, I incorporate this stance every step of the way. I have a genuine interest in hearing people's stories, which client’s feel, and they appreciate the attention and connection that is being formed. I gather information through what they say about themselves and how they see themselves in the world, and my focus is to help them reach their goals.
