About Me

Me

Welcome!

Currently, I only offer telehealth sessions by video format. Please contact me to inqure about current openings and availability. 

I too have a therapist since life shows up. We all experience the human condition: depression, anxiety, isolation, unresolved grief and trauma, shame, people pleasing, toxic relationships and communication, anger, shame, low self-esteem, addiction, and compulsions. Do you listen to your inner critic’s lies too often? Are you a human in pain like I have been? Yes? Then you’ve found the right place. These topics and others are my specialty. I create a safe, fun, compassionate, private, and nonjudging space, using evidence-based approaches customized for each client; like Kim: "You’ve helped me see the world and myself so much better"

I'm glad you've found the courage to ask for help. I teach clients to face the challenges that have plagued them for years. I'll share how to be more self-compassionate and change your core beliefs. Problems usually start with the relationship we have with ourselves; the core beliefs about ourselves, others, and our world can change. Let me show you how.

Below lists some areas of my comprehensive training and fieldwork:

*Suicide Prevention, Intervention, and Postvention.                                                                                        *Diagnosing and working with schizophrenia, bipolar, phobias, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders.  *Certification in Trauma/PTSD therapy                                                                                                             *Substance Abuse Counseling using both traditional and unconventional models                                                *Life Transitions                                                                                                                                                                    *Grief and Loss                                                                                                                                                                *Improving Confidence, Self-Esteem, and Decision Making                                                                        *Mindfulness and Meditation as a Practice for Psychological Transformation                                                      *Using Expressive Writing for Emotional Healing                                                                        *Problematic/Compulsive Sexual Behavior Therapy                                                                                                    *Forensic Psychotherapy and Reintegration                                                                                                                        *Male-Specific Therapy                                                                                                                                                *Healthy Communication in Relationships                                                                                                                *Family and Couples                                                                                                                                                                  *Stress Management


I help people overcome the issues listed above. Also, I help process the taboo: Alt Sex/Kink, suicidality, anger management, and the secrets you plan to die with. My clients constantly report that working together restores hope and that change is possible. Contact me to see how I can help you. "Now I have better ways of seeing and being in this world" Jay

If you're ready for lasting changes, invest in yourself by calling or emailing to discuss how I can help you.

Your first initial call of 30 minutes is free of charge. We'll find out if we are a good fit based on your presenting problem and my areas of expertise.
