Teens, Adults & Couples
I am an owner and also the clinical director of Aurora Family Counseling. With over 20 years of experience as a therapist, I am a strong therapist but do not dictate your goals. You will be offered insights and support to facilitate your growth and to help relieve emotional distress. I have extensive experience with domestic violence and have done hundreds of groups for the court system. Every one needs love and respect. With the proper tools, this can become A reality.

Before I became a therapist, I taught school. I was the clinical director of Laura'sHouse walk in center but the majority of my experience has been in private practice. My clients have been individuals, couples, children and families. I also enjoy working with teens.
