About Me

As a licensed counselor and registered nurse, I've worked with hurting people for over 20 years. At 35, I went from military spouse to widowed, single parent. My world crashed and I had to put it back together.My focus is helping you meet your goals without spending years in therapy, using compassion, empathy, and proven methods.

Licensed as an LMHC for over 15 years, she also holds a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. In addition to her private practice, Dr. Preffer teaches in a graduate counseling program, preparing new counselors to work with clients.
