Being involved in growth is one of the true joys in my life; be it my own emotional or spiritual
growth, the growth of my son or other loved ones. For the 17 years I've been in private practice, I've had the privilege
of helping my clients as they've moved through pain and chaos to health and serenity. The rewards I get working with
people who seek change are truly amazing.

a member of the American Counseling Association.
My areas of expertise include:
- Adjustment-to-life stress
- Depression
- Grief
- Addictions, including sex addiction
- Marital/Relationship issues
- Chronic illness, including
HIV+/AIDS
- Sexual issues
- Adult ADD
