I am an experienced change agent with a first hand knowledge of a wide variety of issues, problems and situations. I am excellent in communication, warm, relational, non-judgmental and direct.
I work to hear the issues you are seeking help with. I do not use "psychobabble."
I focus on the "here and now" issues you bring and we will explore what has brought you to this place, what you can do and/or what you can be. When we first meet we will make sure I am the best type of person for your concern. I focus on a person's/couple's strengths, not their weaknesses. I do not hesitate to be direct; however, I am welcoming and sensitive to diversity - particularly in faith and spiritual beliefs; race; sexuality; life history choices and family of origin experiences. I wish to create a safe place for you. I bring a diverse set of skills and experience.
I remember what it was like to first seek help You have to be very brave. I am very proud to work with the people I do. They are all seeking to be stronger and wiser in their living.

I view therapy as an opportunity to develop healthy relationships where you can grow and explore new opportunities without judgement. I offer individual, relationship and family counseling services for adolescents and adults.
My preference is to keep therapy "label-free", so that we can collaborate on making real progress on the issues standing between you and the life you desire. Labels can be limiting and my goal is to expand the possibilities for each person, relationship, and family that desires healthier ways of being.
When we meet, I will take the time to get to know what makes you and your situation unique and together we'll decide what direction therapy will take. My space is informal and friendly (I'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of therapist), with a four-legged friend to greet you (learn about Ollie in the About Me section).
It is my honor to work with a diverse clientele (i.e. ethnicity, gender, sexuality, spirituality, LGBTIQ, etc). I have specialized training in gender and sexuality issues via AASECT and am kink-aware/friendly.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” – Carl R. Rogers.
I believe that counseling can benefit everyone, whether you’re struggling with severe mental health issues, suffering due to past or ongoing trauma, fighting to survive due to external factors, or simply want to work towards greater personal growth. I work with individuals ages 18 and up, though I will make an occasional exception for a mature teen if they are having trouble finding an affirming counselor.
I have experience working with depression, anxiety, psychosis, trauma, chronic pain, anger management, low self-esteem, lack of assertiveness, and interpersonal conflicts. I affirm diversity in all forms - race, ethnicity, gender identity/expression, relationship structure, sexual/affectional orientation, cultural background, belief system, ability, etc. I’m passionate about working with people to transform the way they see themselves, and I love working with clients to develop new skills to navigate their minds and the world.

Have you found it difficult to adapt to a new life transition? Are you struggling with past traumas? Struggling to make friends/romantic connections or find motivation? I approach counseling as a partnership and together we can improve your well-being. I strive to create a space that is non judgmental where you can be yourself without fear.
You've made it this far in your life with coping skills you have developed along the way. Some of those ways of coping may be getting in your way now. I'll help you identify unhealthy patterns, understand the origin of your issues, and change your life for the better. You deserve to feel better.
I will work with you to identify your goals, and we'll work together to achieve them. Using an approach to counseling that blends cognitive behavior techniques with solution focused counseling,
I will help you develop self love, new coping skills, and improve your relationships. I specialize in trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, and sports psychology.
Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with can be challenging. Call or email me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we might be a good therapeutic fit for your specific needs.
Please note that I work with individuals and couples. I am not currently seeing families.
I am an LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent affirming clinician.
