INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Come into my office, relax, and meet with me face to face. The first session begins our exploration into the nature of your issues, resulting in a complete assessment of all the dynamics and stressors affecting you. The important work of developing our therapeutic relationship is begun, and together we work to develop a plan to best treat your concerns. I work with men, women, and young adults. Specialty areas include Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Law Enforcement Communities, LGBT populations, Post Partum Support, and typical Adjustment stress. I am fluent in American Sign Language, and sensitive to the cultural issues specific to the Deaf/HH communities.
E-THERAPY
Cybercounseling allows a client to have access to therapeutic support from the comfort of home. Although it is not yet covered by traditional health insurance, it can be a fabulous addition to the work you do with me in face-to-face sessions. I assure all my online clients privacy and confidentiality by offering encrypted email exchanges using TSecureMessage.com. To date, encryption is the best technology available to ensure that our work together does not get intercepted by a third party, and there are no additional costs for my clients to use the browser-based format. Video technology has developed over the years to allow a virtual office visit to feel like you are really right here with me. So pull your couch, grab a cuppa java, and sign up for an encrypted video session from the comfort of your home.

Do you find it difficult to socialize , drive a car or surf the internet without a cigarette? Let’s work together to develop a plan that works for you – that will keep working every day for the rest of your life. My intensive treatment approach includes assessment, support and relapse prevention generally spanning 6 to 8 sessions. Want to give the gift of the cleaner air to someone you love?
PRACTICE COACHING
For a long time, I worked for other people. I craved the freedom that I could experience by making my own business decisions. I worried about the risks involved with relinquishing my salary to set up a shingle of my own. I am here today as evidence that it can be done – you can go into practice for yourself and make a living! Let me support you through the process, helping to break it down into manageable steps, so you can achieve your dream.
