Helping people live better lives.

I am looking forward to meeting you. I have been practicing for 15 years in a range of treatment settings from inpatient work at the State Hospital to community group therapy to my current private practice. I primarily work with clients 13 years old and up suffering from general mental health issues, but I will also see children as young as eight years old who are dealing with sexual deviance issues. I approach treatment from a strengths perspective and use evidence-based strategies, and work collaboratively to set goals to meet your needs.
