About My Clients

At various times life can become incredibly challenging. You may be unsure of the next steps or even your purpose in life. Are you always a bit afraid that an anxiety attack is waiting around the corner? Have you been hit with feelings of anger or depression I know exactly what you are feeling: the pounding chest, the shortness of breath, the feeling that the walls are closing in and you need out NOW. It can feel like a terrifying attack, and I do not want you to have to suffer these feelings.

My Background and Approach

I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I work with adolescents experiencing behavioral issues, attachment, educational, and ADHD concerns. The tools that I will provide you with are tools that I have been perfecting over my career helping people just like you. I have dozens of them. My goal is to have at least five different tools and techniques that you can carry with you. So, no matter where you go, you will always have access to discreet exercises that can quickly create relief. I am direct and solution focused. We will start with what is going on in the moment and how to get control over your body and thoughts. We'll discuss what happens to your body when fear takes over so you can learn how to quickly calm down. For the past 8 years, my primary focus has been on helping people get rid of anxiety, anger, and depression. I have attended training that teaches leading edge techniques.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
