I believe that we all have issues and struggles in life and there are times when we need a trained professional therapist to help us navigate through life's storms. My philosophy is that every person is responsible to create meaning in their lives and to fulfill our potential as human beings. My approach is empathetic and non-judgmental. I view my clients as fellow travelers on life's road. I will work to help you find the answers that are already within you. I have specialized training in couples therapy through The Couples Institute, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) through EMDR International Association. I work with many people who struggle with depression, trauma, anxiety, relationship issues. I love being a therapist because I believe that every person is of great worth. I take seriously my commitment to help empower others to live the lives they long for. I earned a doctorate at the University of Nevada, Reno in Counselor Education and Supervision. I am licensed in the State of Nevada as a Marriage and Family Therapist. I am a National Clinical Fellow member of the American Counseling Association and the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapists and the EMDR International Association.
