My Background and Approach
As a Board Certified, Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Life Coach, I specialize incorporating cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies that work for individuals of all ages. With over 30 years experience, I blend counseling for healing with life coaching to move you forward to a life where you are not just serving but thriving.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. I don't believe that there is a limit to human capacity. I think the main reason we develop mental health issues is because they are unhealthy learned behaviors that we have picked up along the way. Which means that I think you can unlearn the faulty behaviors and replace them with healthy ones. As a child, I suffered from severe anxiety and panic attacks. Through my own therapy, I learned how to handle my anxiety and move past it so that it didn't have control over me. I haven't had a panic attack in years and I want you to feel the same freedom that I experience every day. I believe the Portland Trailblazers are the best team in the NBA, but I will not judge you if you're not aware of that obvious fact. I don't discriminate against anyone. I make it a point to participate in marches and community actions that support the LGBTQ community. If you want to learn more about how I can help, shoot me a message.
