Top Specialties

My passion is helping others. Learning how to move through problems

instead of resisting them reduces uncomfortable feelings. How we respond

to life determines our level of fulfillment. I help clients improve life

functioning and relationships in order to reach their potential. Depression,

anxiety, substance abuse, self-esteem, eating disorders, school/academic

issues, and relationship turmoil can get in the way. I use Solution-Focused

Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance

and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and EFT

tapping to help adolescents, adults, couples, and families connect with their

values and cope with life’s challenges.
