Like most of us who have made it to adulthood, I have a lifetime of experiences that have brought me to this moment in time. My journey, like yours, is a network of connections, stories of success and stories of failure, joy and sorrow, emotional and physical bumps and bruises. My journey is informed by this truth.
I am Autistic. At 60, I reflect on my diagnosis at 54 with "Asperger's - High Functioning" and laugh out loud. I have arrived and am more myself. Skyler's, my Service Dog, companionship creates ease. Wrinkles, gray hair, and bifocals are my proof of active living in the midst of ambivalence, uncertainty, doubt, and our complex global community.

Services
You and I begin our work together in the midst of living, life happening all around us. It does not stop for us, we have to make time to pause, to show up, to consider, to choose our steps, our path. My office might be that "field" for you, a place just on the edge of right and wrong, a place we meet to listen, get a different view, share at the cross-roads of diverse experiences, reflect on your perceptions of being you.
No two people are the same, you and I know this. My approach to the therapy session is to meet you, my client's, specific needs. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression or any other issue, I will help you recognize underlying components, fully realize your strengths and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things a different, healthier way.
I approach counseling as a dialogue, a conversation between equals. I draw from a diverse background of life experience and reading. I rely, as well, on your active participation in and out of sessions. It's your journey towards emotional health. My role is more like a Sherpa, a travel companion who know the trail.
The bestowing of a name gives life to an individual or an idea, a dream. It gives the impression of a particular personality. That's why our parents took so much time to name us before we were born. The seeds for True Color Services, LLC dba True Color Cooking, and True Color Counseling were planted some 20 plus years ago.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. Crafted by Dr. Aaron Beck, CBT has become the foundation of almost every practice modality.
