I am a lifelong behavioral health practitioner with 35 years of experience providing counseling services to a large cross section of clients including veterans, first responders, athletes, teens, and executives learning to manage symptoms associated with post traumatic stress, chronic pain, chronic conditions, depression, anxiety, and phase-of-life transitions.

My goal is to understand and connect with clients to help better manage thoughts, feelings and behaviors to increase performance in life, relationships and/or career. My experience also tells me that true happiness involves a focus on the whole person, and I often collaborate with other wellness practitioners for a goal driven, solution focused approach using the most suitable evidence based strategies to help you learn and grow into self-love and acceptance.

Together we can navigate your own unique life plan in a safe, non judgemental environment and establish a strong connection to a larger, healthy community. I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and certified in Chronic Disease Management, PTSD for the military and military culture. I am on staff at the Human Connection in Idaho as a registered counseling intern and I am licensed to treat co-occurring disorders in California.
