I would be happy to help you move forward in your life. I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I have a M.A. in Counseling and also a Master of Divinity degree, but I never superimpose my beliefs or convictions on anyone else, because that is not ethical. My aim is to help individuals and couples move forward in life in a consistent manner with their particular goals and values and convictions. As for experience, I have the least experience working with LGBTQ clients. For licensure I have the LPC, and for certification I have the CADC. As such, I am able to help individuals with issues of depression, severe anxiety, major life changes and losses, substance abuse issues, relationship issues, learning to be assertive and to have boundaries, closure for trauma and abuse, and helping individuals create a strategy for finding an ideal career. I draw on several different treatment approaches, but my foundation is the Cognitive-Behavioral approach, because it is proven that guarding the thoughts, avoiding assumptions, and learning to pause and reflect rather than just reacting is what helps people the most to be at peace with themselves, and to better handle the stressors that life throws at us. I look forward to working with you. Mostly I work with clients in the United States and Canada. But I am uniquely placed so that I can easily work with clients in the Philippines and Southeast Asia, Australia, Europe and the UK. So let's get going, and let's start working on what's most important to you. I look forward to hearing from you.

I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Idaho and have been proving therapy to adults, families and children for over 48 years. My approach is to listen to the client’s story and help them define what they would like their future story to be. I am interested in not only what is not going well in your life but also what is going well and why you think that is so. I believe in using what works to overcome what does not. Most people have not come this far in life without a good number of skills and abilities that have worked for them. My task is to help you discover what those skills are and then help you use those skills to overcome the challenges you are having. I present ideas and observations and most importantly questions for you to consider. I do not see change happening as a result of what I tell you but rather it comes from what you ultimately tell yourself. I have come to believe that our lack of progress is due to either not knowing what we want or only wanting to do what we know. I encourage questions about the process of our time together and ask for feedback to assess what you feel was helpful and what was not. It is important to me that you feel you are making progress toward what you want to have different in your current situation. We will develop a plan together so that we are both clear about what direction you want to go and what your life will be like when you accomplish your treatment goals.

Everyone needs a little help some times and some of us need a lot of help all of the time, either way I'm here to guide you through the fog to the light on the other side. I love to help wherever I can, but I work especially well with depression and anxiety, with teenagers, and with families. I have spent the better part of the last 10 years working with everyone from teenagers to adults. I have training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), TF-CBT, MRT, DBT, and lots of other letters. I have been certified in anger management. I've worked in the court system, I've met with inmates in the jail, and I've helped kids in a school setting. Therapy is more than talking and solving problems, it's about building relationships. It is my goal to build a relationship with everyone that walks in my door. A wise man once told me, "No one learns anything from someone they don't like," and I've made it my mission to connect with everyone that I've ever worked with.
