Developing a relationship of mutual trust is the foundation for effective counseling. I believe listening is the greatest asset a person brings to the relationship. Being diagnosed with cancer can be a challenging time in anyone’s life. Gaining insight, utilizing strengths and developing skills help individuals cope with a cancer diagnosis. I offer patients emotional support in a comfortable setting.

Biography

I have worked as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Art Therapist treating adults for over 20 years. I learned that sometimes we can't control what happens in life, but we can take control of how we respond in those situations. Seeking support through psychotherapy can help you explore ways to manage life's unexpected events successfully.
