I am a good listener and can relate well to most people; I believe it was my calling to share this gift with others. I strive to connect with each patient so that I can better learn how they view their concerns and what their goals are for therapy. My areas of interest include depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, grief, and divorce adjustment. I have an interest in geriatric concerns and earned my certification in Mental Health and the Older Adult. I also have specialized experience in miscarriage and still-birth counseling, and training in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. Patients should be at ease knowing they can talk with me confidentially, and that they should not hesitate to ask questions or share concerns with me. My past experience includes working for Family Services of Northeast Wisconsin (Green Bay) as an outpatient therapist, and at St. Norbert College Counseling Center as a counselor and the Assistant Director. I have been married since 1985 to my high school sweetheart and have raised two daughters. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my pets, camping, downhill skiing, reading and traveling."
