My internship began in 1985. At that time my focus of study and treatment was limited to those suffering from Anxiety, Panic, Phobias and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

Almost two decades have gone by since then and I have been fortunate enough to be able to continue my education and expand my level of clinical expertise.

Today I am in Private Practice and licensed to treat Individuals, Couples and Adolescents with interpersonal problems and complex clinical disorders.

Although I am very proud of the Graduate Degree I have earned from Valparaiso University, there was even more to learn beyond the classroom.

Fortunate again, I have enjoyed the privilege of being trained, supervised and encouraged by dedicated Psychologists, Psychiatrists and other Licensed Professionals throughout my career. These people have taught me that it is just not what you say, but how you say it and when you say it.

I've come to believe that an effective therapist is not only a  passionate student of human behavior but is also a developed ethical and compassionate artist with honed skills of listening, understanding and communicating knowledge.

I am proud to own that kind of reputation as a therapist, and I thank my clients and colleagues that have made that possible.
