Professional statement

Many adults reach a point where the stress and pace of life start catching up with them. Anxiety may become constant in the background, your mind may not slow down, focus may feel harder than it used to be, and your mood or motivation can shift in ways that feel confusing or discouraging. You may be managing work, relationships, and responsibilities while internally feeling overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that are no longer working. If any of this sounds familiar, therapy can help you understand what is happening and find a clearer way forward.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, addictions (including alcohol, drugs, and food), bipolar disorder, trauma-related concerns, emotional dysregulation, and significant life changes. With more than 30 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Addictions Specialist, I understand how these challenges intersect and how deeply they can affect work, relationships, identity, and self-trust.

My approach is thoughtful, direct, and practical. Rather than staying only at the level of insight, we look at the patterns that keep problems in place and develop clear strategies to improve emotional regulation, decision-making, and follow-through in everyday life. Therapy is collaborative and active, with a focus on helping you feel steadier, more confident in your thinking, and better able to move forward.

Clients often appreciate having a therapist who is experienced, straightforward, and engaged in the work—someone who can help them understand what is happening while also offering concrete ways to create meaningful change.

Message to clients

Taking the step to seek counseling can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to ensure you feel welcomed, understood, and encouraged from the very start. As a seasoned therapist, I take an integrative and collaborative approach, helping you identify and achieve the goals that matter most to you. You decide the focus of our work, and together, we explore the best strategies to help you move forward.

Through thought-provoking questions and insightful analogies, I help you gain a new perspective on your challenges, uncover solutions that work for you, and develop tools for lasting change.

I offer therapy through insurance as well as short-term, structured therapy tracks available on a self-pay basis. Insurance-based work is ongoing and paced according to clinical need. Self-pay options are intentionally structured and time-limited, with the option to continue longer-term if additional support is needed. These self-pay tracks are a good fit for adults seeking focused work around ADHD/executive functioning, burnout, or major life transitions.

I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation so we can talk about what you’re looking for and decide which option is the best fit.
