Come experience a safe, welcoming place of comfort where pain, struggles, or confusion can be freely expressed to create an opportunity for a healthier, more enjoyable life.
I have been married for 33 years and have three children (ages 29, 26, 21). I have worked in various mental health capacities since 1992 which culminated in my private practice, which I opened in 2008. I am an open-hearted and open-minded Christian who considers it a privilege to hear the stories of a diverse community.
As of September 2022, I switched from insurance panels to private pay (I do remain on Aetna panel). My patients are welcome to file their own insurance.
Are you struggling with dark thoughts such as, "This is never going to get better" or "I can't deal with this anymore"? Depression can make you feel as if you are lost in a deep, dark hole. Are you scared to face life and feel incapable of dealing with what lies before you? Participating in therapy can free you from the shackles of fear, help you find your strength, and illuminate the steps that lead from darkness to light.
Is there a trauma in your past that is wrapped around you, weighing you down, and blocking you from moving forward? Are triggers from this trauma pulling you into the past and making it impossible to have strong, healthy relationships? Participating in therapy can help you exchange the chains of the past with trust, safety, and hope.
Would you like to have better relationships in your life? Are you frustrated by manipulation, betrayal, dismissal, and unrealistic expectations? Participating in therapy can help you set healthy boundaries, evaluate your relationships for safety, and build a base of internal strength from which you can navigate.
