In a nutshell,
I am compassionate, open-minded, straightforward & genuine. My sense of humor and often nonconformist approach to life
lends to a unique and

outcomes can be quite amazing!

Even Better to Ask Yourself:
WHY NOT NOW?
"Nothing changes...if nothing changes"
There is just no way around it...
if you want to improve your life, you must have the
COURAGE TO TAKE CALCULATED RISKS.
Take that first step now...
Create the life you want...

Romantic relationships are wonderful when you're feeling conncected & valued by your partner.
However, when there is
Distance, Lack of Trust, Resentment, Anger,
Unresolved Conflict, Infidelity or Addiction,
relationships can be very painful.
Fortunately, Marriage Counseling & Couples Therapy can help, even if both parties don't attend or wish to participate.
Online Therapy & Virtual Counseling available!
Studies show the earlier you start couples therapy, the better chance you have of improving your relationship!

Families come in many shapes and sizes…and can be a wonderful source of support, stability & love. However,
EVERY FAMILY FACES UNIQUE CHALLENGES
and painful experiences.

Online Counseling, Video
&
Virtual Therapy
In a 21st-century digital world, virtual therapy is becoming the "new normal" when it comes to counseling. The great thing about online therapy is that it allows for more flexible and in the moment scheduling options. If you are a visual learner you can schedule a video session or if you are more of an auditory learner you can schedule a phone session. Virtual therapy is an effective alternative mode of counseling.
I provide online therapy for Couples Counseling, Individual Therapy, & Family Therapy
If interested or curious, why not give it a try...you never know...it may be a great fit for you!
