My background is fairly broad having lived in a number of states in the United States and abroad. I have a positive regard for many cultures having lived abroad as well, recognizing that diversity is a part of the world we live in now and our many cultures create a mosaic of life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed in the state of Oklahoma and Colorado. I have a Masters degree in Counseling. My career has included work with families and youth, individuals and couples along with those struggling with serious mental health issues as well as leading organizations and dealing in this capacity with personnel and ways to lead staff and motivate leadership in these settings always striving for positive outcomes. I have had training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy, and have been a counselor for 20 plus years. I am typically eclectic when working with individuals and families, as well as couples and youth. It is my belief that you can use a socratic approach of questioning and exploring, and challenging gently when working with survivors of trauma, when exploring misconceptions, as well as challenging belief patterns that may be challenging to the day to day coping that we need to have. I believe that we can also explore our patterns of functioning and adapt adding new skills and patterns, traditions and celebrations for example, to place ourselves in a better place to thrive, not only survive in this experience we call life. We have the honor as counselors to travel with you and those you care about on your journey briefly, and this we do with the utmost respect for who you are and for how you wish to see yourself and your family and loved ones succeed and overcome the current challenges you are facing.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with over 10 years of experience working with people.

It takes courage to seek help for a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to help support and empower you the very best I can. I look forward to helping you.

Clients that I work with are the leaders of therapy. I will work along side you and help guide you. I believe therapy is your journey, not mine. I want to help people who struggle with everyday life and help them feel confident and happy with the choices they make. They are the ones that know what will help them the most, sometimes we just need help figuring that out. I help with validating thoughts and feelings, building coping skills, managing stressors and overall life skills. I can help people begin to express themselves in a healthy and safe way and communicate in a way that they will be heard. I have worked with individuals in an inpatient setting as well as in private practice. I have a Master's Degree in Human Relations Counseling and am licensed as an LPC and LADC. My go to approach is client centered and as I stated earlier this journey is yours, I am hopeful and confident that I can and have made a difference in people's lives for the better and I build rapport very easily and believe in each person being able to reach their goals and will help assist you in obtaining those goals.

The human spirit is more powerful than any drug, and it is that we need to nurture. Lives get off track for many reason, but they can get back on track. I am honored to help. For the last 30 years, I was employed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Since 1998, I served as a Drug Treatment Specialist, working with adult male offenders with substance use disorders. The previous 7 years, I was employed in Human Resources and unit management. I left that job due to mandatory retirement. I loved the work because I found it meaningful. Even though the primary focus was a cognitive-behavioral approach to addiction, I counseled our clients regarding grief and loss and relationship issues of all kinds. I enjoyed working with people who had forgotten their own potential and watching them grow and take control of the rest of their lives. EDUCATION Master of Arts in Personnel and Organizational Psychology in 1992, from the University of Central Oklahoma (formerly Central State University) in Edmond, Oklahoma. Bachelor of Business Administration in 1988, from Central State University, Edmond, Oklahoma.

Struggling with identifying why you have the thought patterns, reoccurring thoughts, interpersonal relations and experiences that you do?
