Services

I provide services for Individuals, families, couples as well as group counseling for adults, adolescents and children (starting at age 10). 

There are many different practical approaches to therapy that I have acquired over the years. Cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) informed treatment, solution-focused brief therapy, EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) and HeartMath software are among the most frequent techniques I use to assist my clients in reaching their goal.

My dog, Wally, will often accompany me to my office. He is a certified Therapy Dog through Therapy Dogs International. He is a Labrador/Border Collie/Heeler mix.

Please let me know if you are allergic to dogs or have a severe fear reaction to them, so that I know to take

precautions.

The most frequent issues I will be treating you for are:

  • Abuse
  • Addiction
  • ADHD
  • Adjustment Issues
  • Affect Management Issues (e.g. Anger, Anxiety)
  • Blended Family Issues
  • Couples Conflict
  • Divorce
  • Family Conflict
  • Grief and Loss
  • Mood Disorders
  • Parenting
  • Phase of Life Issues
  • PTSD
  • Trauma

When the Man waked up he said,

'What is Wild Dog doing here?'

And the Woman said,

'His name is not Wild Dog any more,

but the First Friend,

because he will be our friend

for always and always and always.'
