As a Clinical Psychotherapist, I have been providing therapeutic services for children, adolescents, adults, couples and families for the past 15 years.  My education and training allows me to assess and treat a broad range of emotional and psychological issues, including , anxiety, depression, grieving, job stress, peer pressure, and substance abuse as well as the more common social and parenting issues.  Outside of my private practice I have worked in numerous settings including out-patient and partial hospital programs for severely emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Nationally Board Certified Counselor and hold a certificate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am also trained and credentialed as an online/distance counselor and a Certified Sex Therapist, receiving intensive training through the Sex Therapy Training Institute in Miami Fl. 

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) restructures the way people think in the hopes of changing the way people feel. Studies have shown that CBT is an extremely effective way of treating disorders such as anxiety and depression. We live in a tough world, with tremendous pressure, and due to our desire to succeed in life, in addition to society's pressures, we tend to put more pressure on ourselves with an irrational way of thinking.  As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I provide a safe environment where my clients feels comfortable sharing their most intimate aspects of their lives, without judgment.

In January of 2009, I proudly accepted the position of resident psychotherapist for myworkbutterfly.com, a national website designed to provide resources and support for career moms who struggle with doing it all and for moms who want or need to return to the workforce.

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE what I do and truly feel blessed and honored that my clients feel comfortable enough with me to connect, feel, share, experience and in turn, learn.  

I would love the opportunity to get to know you as well.
