My communication style

My approach to therapy is to create an environment where you feel safe and accepted. My focus is on you and your needs and goals. I am a firm believer in empathy and promoting introspection.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have spent 27 years working as a Clinician and have been fortunate enough to gain experience with a diverse group of individuals, including in an institutional, clinical, and educational setting. My personal journey to becoming a therapist probably started after I left the military.

My goals for you

Setting goals in therapy is essential in creating a successful plan when it comes to making positive and substantial changes in your life. Promoting positive change must include effective coping skills that you can utilize to achieve your goals.

Our first session

Simply put, the first part of therapy is getting to know one another. This is done by asking questions and why you're seeking therapy. Most importantly, establishing goals and a better understanding of what you want to achieve during your time in therapy.
