I employ a holistic approach when working with clients and focus on the whole person. We discuss and collaborate about alternative methods to achieve healing and wellness. I have been trained in many integrative healing modalities such as mindfulness, Reiki, Integrated Energy Therapy, herbal medicine, Active Dreaming, nutrition, and meditation. I am providing sessions in person or via teleconference in order for clients to engage in the therapeutic process in whichever way makes them feel more comfortable.

Everyone hits a bump in the road from time to time. Maybe you're going through a difficult transition, such as the loss of a job or loved one. Maybe you worry too much...but can't seem to stop. Maybe you struggle with difficult relationships--or spend so much time caring for others that you've neglected yourself. Sometimes we just get stuck, and we aren't sure why. Sharing our concerns with a caring professional can help us find solutions, improve our sense of self and our relationships, provide safety and warmth, and help us find more meaning in our lives.

Imagine how differently you might feel if you could overcome the obstacles that keep you feeling stuck in your life and relationships. Patterns that no longer work for you can be reshaped and built upon to make the most of who you are and want to become. While we may explore the landscape of the past, my approach pairs a psychodynamic model with targeting your highest priority challenge, to achieve both momentum and relief. We can uncover what you want more of in your self and your relationships, and how to get there. I work with individuals, couples and families to help them build and shape their lives, partnerships and marriages.

Each of us are a work in progress. At different times in our lives we may need some help along the way. If you're having a difficult time in life and would like someone to help you develop the skills and techniques to live the life you want, one filled with positive thoughts and behaviors; stronger, healthier relationships, as well as a life filled with gratitude and satisfaction, I would love the opportunity to help you achieve your goals.

You can get relief and heal from your trauma. We will work together and I will guide you to improving your daily life. Everyone has experienced some form of trauma throughout their lives; be it from childhood or current issues. Traumas compile throughout life and often manifest into mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Have you noticed controlling emotions is difficult or anxiety slowly increasing for no reason? We can work with numerous tools to help you feel better, one is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) these will bring relief.

The work I do focuses on the problems of today while considering how coping with these may be complicated by maladaptive patterns of understanding and problem solving from the past. Learning about ourselves involves discovering how often we have, without knowing it, clung to thoughts, feelings and conclusions that can keep us "safe" but end up limiting our experience. Much of the facts of our early lives were beyond our control, but counseling can help unravel the ways we may be keeping ourselves caught up in that past and therefore not fully available to a future we might shape differently.

You put in a lot of effort to find fulfillment at work and in your relationships. You are wondering why it doesn't feel like enough and try even harder. You worry that the hard things that have happened to you in the past might always hold you back. Uncomfortable emotions crop up and last too long: anxiety, sadness, hurt, shame and anger. It can be overwhelming. You feel less energized and less creative. Maybe you blame yourself or others. Sometimes you might make unhealthy choices, followed by regret. You are ready to do the work to make things better, to go below the surface because, in your heart, you know you deserve more.

Through out a lifetime, one will experience periods of mental/emotional, physical or spiritual discomfort/stress, pain or illness. Positive and negative stressors/changes effect our mind and body. The extent in which these changes effect each person varies and depends on biological/genetic pre-disposition, environmental, personal, and/or life situation/circumstance. How a person responds to a life altering experience(s) and stressor(s) is vital to one's mental health. If you are reading this page, you are taking action to seek professional assistance.
