About Me I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice as a therapist for over twenty years. Prior to joining BetterHelp, I served in the U. S. Military as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Commissioned Officer. After retiring from the military, I began my second career with the Department of Veteran’s Affairs as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My practice areas include working with clients experiencing a broad range of Mental Health issues, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship/marital and family problems, work-related stress, and interest in improving self-esteem, health and lifestyle, and quality of life issues. My approach to online counseling is grounded in the belief that we are each trying to do our best (given our genetics, family training, and current circumstances). However, we tend to get stuck in certain emotional patterns, thought patterns, and behavioral patterns. In order to help with this “stuckness,” I utilize a combination of evidence-based treatments including, Humanistic and CognitiveTherapies. All of this occurs within a safe online counseling environment creating a trusting relationship that we will build over time. Please know that I am committed to giving you quality care and protecting your privacy and I will do my best to help you achieve the goals that you came to BetterHelp to resolve. My previous clients found their online counseling sessions to be very helpful in addressing whatever presenting issues that they have chosen to discuss in counseling. I look forward to meeting with you!

I have been a licensed professional counselor in Michigan for over 20 years. I have worked with clients on a range of concerns including self-fulfillment, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. My therapy style is both patient and action oriented, both accepting and explorative. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe it is important to normalize behavior and provide alternative perspectives. I tactfully infuse humor when possible and therapeutically effective.

We will work together to establish expectations and a treatment plan to meet your individual therapeutic needs. If you stand too far away from a large painting, you cannot appreciate the individual brushstrokes that brought it to life. Yet if you stand too close, you cannot appreciate the image in its entirety. It can be very difficult to recognize the limits of our own perspective. Having someone on your side to focus or broaden that perspective as needed can be tremendously helpful. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to listen and learn with you.
