About

Children and families have been the focal point of my career for over 20 years. I have learned that youth and adults benefit from listening, understanding, and validation. Nowadays, the impact of unresolved mental health issues is a clear and present growing risk factor. Please do not hesitate to speak with someone about difficult matters. Having good mental health can reduce risk factors and should be a prioritized need alongside our physical health. For mental health crises, you can call Mobile Crisis at 877-626-1772; or National Suicide Prevention Hotline 800-273-8255 (dial 988). For life threatening emergencies, please call 911.

Choice and autonomy help us all to feel a sense of empowerment and independence. My goal is to help people live better while making their own, best-and-informed decisions. While pursuing this goal, we will create an environment that furthers self-determination and is free of harsh judgement and negative criticism.

Building trust is the first goal to developing a therapeutic bond. As the bond strengthens, we will create pathways to a helping relationship and more desired outcomes. Service delivery will be anchored in evidence-based treatment that includes person-centered approaches, motivational interviewing, and the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
