It often begins with a thought…
maybe I should talk to someone…

Understanding ~ Clarity ~ Strategy

Whether you're looking for a single consultation, a few sessions to get back on track, or a longer-term therapy, I'm here to support you.

With 20+ years in mental health, I've developed an approach called
the System—CCTM:

C – Counseling
C – Coaching
T – Therapy
M – Mentorship

This blended approach combines methods from counseling, coaching, therapy, and mentorship, tailored to your individual needs and goals.

No problem is too big or too small. I strive to provide a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, validated, and supported, with absolute confidentiality.

Common mental health conditions addressed include anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, schizophrenia diagnosis, delusions, psychosis, ADHD, Autism spectrum, trauma and PTSD, low self-esteem, stress management, grief and loss, relationship conflicts, family dynamics, intimacy and sex, body image, workplace issues, unhealthy habits, negative thought patterns, money beliefs, career changes, and major life events.

I use various therapeutic modalities:

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)

  • ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

  • Psychodynamic Therapy

  • DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy)

  • Gestalt Therapy

  • Financial Therapy

  • Mindfulness Practices

  • Schema Therapy

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

  • …and many other evidence-based modalities including…

  • Walk or ‘Shoulder to Shoulder’ sessions

  • Animal assisted therapy with Cat or Dog
    (Please inquire)

  • Urgent sessions and extended sessions available at additional fee

I work with adults, couples, groups, teams, elderly, adolescents, and children.
My services are inclusive and welcoming to ALL.



Flexible Options
