The Start to Happy Foundation, Inc. is proud to have several mental/behavioral health professionals to help you along your journey.
There are a wide range of mental/behavioral health professions out there, so what sets us apart?
We are formally trained in mental and behavioral health from accredited universities to work with clients wanting to make life changes. We are trained mental and behavioral health providers that are able to offer individual, couples, family, and group therapy.
The exciting news is that through years of working in the mental and behavioral health field, we have learned what really works and what doesn't, we have seen it all!
Feeling unmotivated? We've seen it, we've been there, and we've helped many work through it!
Relationship issues? Nothing can surprise us and we can work together to get through it.
Parenting concerns? Guess what? We are parents! We have hands-on experience as well as years of providing parenting courses.
Anxiety preventing you from moving forward? We hate anxiety to! However, you can learn to become friends with anxiety and use it to propel you forward rather than let it take you down.
Life transitions happening? We've either been there or have helped others through it. Divorce. New job. Loss. Cross Country Move. Empty Nest. Or just starting over. We've got you!
Like you, I have seen the word "Happiness" defined in numerous ways over the years. Does it come from charisma and positive thinking? Meditation and chanting? Decisiveness? Is it all about the situation? Is it meant only for the chosen few who smile all the time? Or, is there a different story?
Nope! It is meant for everyone - including you!
I'm known by my clients as the coach that puts the relationship first in the coaching setting, my communication skills bring out the best in my clients. I'm known for my practical, street-savvy style; my fusion of real-life stories and my conversational techniques connect with my clients at an intimate, intense and individual level.
I also lead group therapy sessions for teaching others how to have a better relationship with their partner, children, friends, or co-workers.
I'm a Doctor of Behavioral Health and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor that enjoys working with individuals that want to make wellness a part of their lifestyle. I served as an Assistant Director of an academic doctoral program for several years teaching providers how to best serve individuals in different types of healthcare settings. And I have worked as a clinical director in a non-profit setting helping train future healthcare leaders.
I write for Psychology Today, "A New Beginning" every month with different topics that pertain to mental health, therapy techniques, and how to live a better life.
You will hear about many styles and techniques in the therapy realm, and each has their place. For me, I have found a passion in working through CBT, holistic wellness, and positive psychology.
With over 13 years of behavioral health experience, coaching, speaking, and most importantly, real-life, in-the-trenches counseling experience, my view is radically different. I appreciate, and share with clients, that change and happiness is a moment-to-moment choice and not always about to-do lists or defeat. Happiness is for everyone, everyday. It's how we should roll!
