Welcome!

I am still currently meeting with clients in-office or via telephone. Whichever you choose, is fine with me. We will all get through this crazy time! Also, no masks will be required in my office. You are welcome to choose what makes you feel most comfortable.

I am passionate about helping teenagers and adults find out who they are and what they want in life. I have experienced what it feels like to be unsure of the future and to not have the confidence to make my own choices. The decisions of who to date or marry, what college or job to take, and how to balance life with kids, a spouse, pets, and career can be overwhelming. There are ways to find satisfaction in any stage of life. I would love to help you have the life you want.

Here are some of the issues I specialize in dealing with:

  • anxiety
  • depression
  • stress
  • premarital counseling
  • marriage issues
  • lacking confidence
  • trouble making friends
  • difficulty making decisions
  • parenting challenges
  • empty-nest
 Thank you for visiting my page. I realize that the idea of going to see a counselor can be a frightening one as it can be difficult to know what to expect. Whatever you are struggling with, please know that you don't have to face it alone. We all experience difficulties in life, no matter how good or bad our childhoods were or how great or challenging our lives turned out to be. Call or email me and I will help you find hope again.
 
It is my hope that the information provided on this site will answer most questions you may have. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions and I will be glad to answer them.
