I want to help you increase the quality of your life by helping you when your thinking or behavior and feelings don’t seem to connect. I use many different approaches to therapy and draw upon numerous orientations if helpful to your goal of change. I strongly advocate for the mind-body connection: a healthy mind helps the body be healthier. Past issues are of importance, but they don’t have to be the major focus.

I can help you with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, PTSD, addictive issues and codependency. I am proud to be a Tricare provider. I provide family and couples therapy and work with LGBT issues. Please call so we may talk personally.

In my more than 25 years of practice, I have worked with people from all walks of life and admire human resilience and the desire for quality of life. If you want to change, there are many possibilities and ways to achieve this goal. Change can affect your life in wonderful ways.
