We Are Here for You

I am currently offering tele-health (virtual) therapy to current and new clients using a HIPAA approved interactive video platform. 
 

 

We all have the intelligence and strength to work through difficult issues, but sometimes we need a little help!

Today our lives can be complex and stressful. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or lost and alone, counseling can help you move forward. The APA reports that 72% of adults are being treated for stress related disorders. The CDC and APA report large numbers of children and adolescents having emotional and behavioral problems. Stress maybe seen as an invisible disorder, but we experience it in our body which often results in headaches, obesity with emotional eating and chronic pain. The link betwen our mind and body is powerful and behavioral health counseling is important. 

Primary care providers are seeing increasing numbers of adults, children and adolescents with high blood pressure, high cholesterol,, headaches and chronic pain. 

 If you or your child is experiencing anxiety, obsessive compulsive thoughts and behaviors, insomnia, depression,  mood swings, frustration, and irritability, you are may have a stress related disorder. We often become so  comfortable with stress that we don't realize how it is affecting our health both emotional and medical.

More adult, adolescents and children are being diagnosed and treated for ADD and ADHD disorders. Is this your diagnosis or are the symptoms stress related? You will find the answer to this question and others  with my clinical assessment. If you do have ADD as an adult of child, I work collaboratively with your primary care
 provider, psychiatrist or pediatrician to develop the most effective plan which may include medication, but also includes developing skills and strategies to minimize symptoms. 

Behavioral Health counseling is important to reduce our need for medication and to lead to happier, healthier and, more fulfilled lives for adults, children and adolescents. Treatment includes an assessment of symptoms; consultation with primary care or medical provider and a treatment plan developed in collaboration with you. My work is to assist you in developing skills to manage stress, reduce medical problems and increase your happiness. 


While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

We live in a world with rapid cycles of change. Change is growth, change is stressful and all changes need plans, support and guidance to be successful. I work with you to assess know what needs to be changed; to develop your roadmap that leads you to success!!

Stress and change are constant, ask yourself if you or your child are experiencing any pain related to your stress.
