As your therapist, I want you to feel heard and validated. Therapy allows an opportunity for introspection into what's working for you and what's not working.

I have experience in working with clients who have experienced Trauma including:

 

  • Domestic Violence 

  • Sexual Abuse/ Assault 

  • Physical Abuse

I work with children (beginning at age 5), adolescents, families, and adults.

She looks forward to working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and providing a safe place that promotes creativity, growth, and respect for all her client’s.

Client goals range from couples communication, self/esteem, weight loss/gain, to anti-social issues, and beyond.
​
I am a husband, father, son, uncle, and friend to many. I'm also a little league basketball coach within our community. (Hence the sports references.) Not only do I have life experiences, I know how to use these experiences to help others.
