Despite the complexity of people’s lives, health care typically responds with fragmented services. At LCHC, we recognize a person is unlikely to make changes to their diet, exercise regularly, or follow their prescriptions if they're suffering from untreated anxiety, depression or substance abuse.
Counseling and medication can help. Sometimes, changes in behaviors by the individual or family and changes in thinking can help people better cope with chronic medical conditions.
Take a free screening to help you determine if your recent thoughts or behaviors may be associated with a common, treatable mental health issue. Online screening courtesy of Mental Health America in Sheboygan County.
I worked in human and social services for the past 15 years, with over 10 years in direct clinical practice and program management. My work in program development and quality improvement has been highlighted at several national conferences.
My previous clinical experience includes intensive training on child and family clinical practice, and I have an interest in parenting work. I served as adjunct faculty at a Master of Arts in Counseling program, teaching courses in advanced clinical skills.
My greatest reward as a therapist is helping my patients explore ways to facilitate positive change in their lives. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental environment - a safe place to explore the issues that may be deterring you from living the life you want.
I enjoy spending my time with friends and family, whether it is outside or up at our cottage!
I chose the field of Social Work and therapy to use my passions/gifts to help others create their own visions for themselves holistically. Managing your health can seem difficult initially, you have my support to guide you towards better health which ultimately positively affects everyone you come in contact with.
My experiences working in mental health and substance misuse treatment assists me when working to provide support in areas such as anger management, anxiety & depression, mental health, substance misuse, and weight management, wellness and self-care. I have experience facilitating groups focused on anger management, emotional health regulation, substance misuse recovery, Parenting, anxiety & depression, and trauma recovery.
Fun Fact : I am indoor spinning cycling instructor and I hope to bring my expertise to Sheboygan. I would like to incorporate indoor spinning as positive outlet for others to manage their physical and mental health goals into my practice as therapist.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Substance Abuse Counselor with over 20 years of experience working with children and adults in a variety of settings.
I have additional training in Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health and Brainspotting which involves focused mindfulness interventions aimed at identifying, processing and releasing sources of emotional and physical pain and increasing self-awareness.
