I am a Licensed Teacher turned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in counseling high conflict families, couples, adolescents, and individuals who are seeking to clarify their values, and embrace a strong sense of self in order to improve their relationships.
This is a process that must occur prior to increasing the emotional bond with others and includes identifying what you want, articulating what you want and need, taking ownership for your contribution to the problem, and increasing the capacity to accept and tolerate differences.However, before you can understand someone else, you must know who you are and what you need.

Family, Couple, and Individual Therapy: I believe that the key to strong and enduring relationships is the development of a strong sense of self. While the goal for most couples is to create a deep sense of intimacy, developing a strong sense of self is a prerequisite to creating emotional connection.
After teaching for 10 years and teaching special education for six of those years, the desire to engage on a deeper level with families is what drove me to pursue a Master's degree in Counseling with a Marriage and Family specialization. I believe that is the the dynamic in our family of origin and early attachment that lays the foundation for how well we are able to navigate our relationships and our lives.
I accept cash paying clients and I also take insurance. Fees may be subject to change annually. Payment in full for services is due at the time therapy services are provided. If payment for services is past due over thirty (30) days, a letter will be sent to you stating that your account balance must be brought current before receiving additional services.
What is a Relationship, Couple, and Family Therapist? A Relationship, Couple, and Family therapist is a trusted mentor and coach who can help you identify and uncover what keeps you from reaching your fullest potential.
Relationship, Couple, and Family Therapy is a one-on-one relationship with individuals, couples, and families that provides a supportive and non-judgmental space to help you create what you want for yourself, as well as to facilitate you with a direct approach in taking ownership for your contribution to what prevents you from reaching your goals.

Amazing staff and providers. I can't speak enough to how great they are in this office. They're always helpful and do everything they can do take care of their patients. It's never easy having to take one of your children in to a provider for therapy. Instead, the staff at Options makes it painless and a positive experience. I don't know where we'd be without them. Even when we had issues with our insurance they offered suggestions to help and work around. They also have convenient hours and days.

I have never seen a receptionist that is so unprofessional. Always on her cell phone. Never at the front desk when clients need to make appointments. Mumbles when she talks so you can't understand her.
Scheduling is so difficult because everyone only works one or two specific days and those days usually book up months in advanced.
