"Are you struggling to get out of bed in the morning? Do you feel lost or stuck in your life or with the decision you are making? Is your eating out of control? Do you wonder if the choices you are making the correct choices for you? Do you feel sad and hopeless? If you answered yes to any of these questions then I am here to help you. Reach out today and let's explore how to make changes so that you can feel the way you want to feel. Is your teen struggling with anxiety and school performance?

"With over 30 years of experience in school psychology, I can help you identify the cause of your child's learning and/or behavioral problems and offer actionable recommendations for you, your child, and the school. Experienced with all aspects of learning disabilities, autism spectrum, health impairments such as ADHD and anxiety, trauma history, and traumatic brain injury and offering my experience with public, charter, private, and home school settings. I seek to understand the "whole child" by looking at cognitive, academic, health/developmental, and social/emotional functioning. Every family deserves a quality, yet affordable, evaluation for their child."

"Are you having a rough time coping? Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed? I believe that the most important aspect is finding the right therapist that you feel comfortable with to share your most intimate thoughts and feelings.In my practice I provide a confidential,non judgmental environment where you feel safe enough to open up . I work with individuals starting at age 16 through adults who want their lives to be better, are experiencing day to day challenges, as well as individuals who are experiencing mental health/behavioral health issues such as depression and anxiety."

"I work with children, teenagers, and adults with a variety of behavioral, mood, and relationship challenges. Through cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we work to change thoughts, behaviors and emotions that interfere with life satisfaction, happiness, day-to-day functioning and relationships. In addition to CBT, my therapeutic style incorporates supportive therapy, parent therapy, and stress management. I strive to develop a collaborative and respectful relationship with my clients in a safe environment to decrease anxiety, improve mood and relationships, and help create a stronger sense of self-competency and self-worth."

" *Not taking new clients* Does life have you feeling stuck? You’re tired and overwhelmed. There are times when we all need extra support. New life transitions can be hard to navigate. Transition is different for everyone. For some people, reaching the end of their career, or launching their children, comes with a sense of accomplishment, and pride and excitement for the next phase. But for others, there's confusion or sadness over the purpose or direction for their life. Maybe life doesn’t look the way you thought it would at this point. We all deal with major life changes differently whether you are an empty nester or a student."

"When we understand our own story - our history, our losses, our difficulties, we begin to understand why particular things are difficult. If you are ready to tell and understand your story I'd like to hear it. Abandonment, shame, betrayal, and isolation are likely part of it - and these are hard to talk about. But, you were harmed in relationship and that is what you need for healing. A relationship that is experienced as safe and trustworthy, with someone who wants to hear all you have to say is a big step towards comfort and peace. "

"Over 20 years of working with individuals and couples, I have developed expertise working with a variety of issues, including: low mood, low motivation, anxiety, creative blocks, feeling "stuck" (in any area of life), relationship issues, work or career issues, anger management, addictions, compulsive behavior, and personal growth. My approach is client-centered and collaborative. Together we will work to clarify your goals, and develop a plan that will help you achieve them as quickly as possible. To help you actualize those goals I utilize a variety of modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, mindfulness therapy, interpersonal therapy and psychoeducational approaches."

"Life can be a struggle. Maybe you’re balancing multiple demands: parenthood, relationship, career, and you feel constantly pulled in different directions. As the demands increase, time for yourself decreases and you find yourself full of worry and defeating thoughts such as: “I can't handle this” “what will I do?”; “I’m not good enough”. Self doubt and insecurity set in and daily tasks may feel like they’re more difficult to get through. You may feel exhausted but these running thoughts keep you up at night. Or maybe you’ve felt this way for a while, and you’re beginning to wonder if you will ever feel content again."

"I enjoy and have a deep passion for treating adolescents and families with a wide range of presenting concerns. I have abundance experience working with adolescents and families touched by anxiety, depression, separation, divorce, truancy, school refusal, self harm behaviors, suicidal ideation, physical, emotional and sexual abuse as well as substance and alcohol abuse. It is my singular focus to respect the innate dignity of every person who shares their pain with me, and I cherish the privilege that it is to do so."

"I believe in helping a person overcome the problems and situations that are faced in life, not just treating a diagnosis. My philosophy is to provide a private, comfortable, and non-judgmental environment where everyone can feel safe no matter age, beliefs, lifestyle, sexual orientation, or life circumstances. I provide a laid-back conversational approach and with children I will often use toys or games to help everyone feel comfortable. I also have flexible appointment times, including evenings and weekends."

If so, I provide caring psychotherapy, counseling, and life coaching for adults who are seeking relief from stress, depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief/loss, trauma, addictive or compulsive behavior, codependency, issues of identity, or readjustment."

"My goal in the therapy room is to provide a safe, empathetic and supportive space for you to be able to share, process and grow. I integrate psychology and theology (if desired) while aiming to understand my clients well and guide them as they make sense of their personal lives. Whether it is a trauma-related experience or seasons of change, I understand the dynamics of managing relationships, marriage and family, work, school, and more. I believe in healthy boundaries, self-care and taking wise, purposeful steps on the journey of growth and healing."

"**NOT AVAILABLE FOR NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. If you are a returning client, please outreach via phone or email.** Maintaining and creating healthy relationships is hard work- I get it. Especially when you add major life adjustments like becoming a new parent, dealing with a medical diagnosis, or a change in career to the equation. My clients feel overwhelmed, worried their feelings aren't "normal." Some of my clients self-medicate with substances and are tired of the cycle of temporary relief, followed by the shame, guilt, and anxiety. My clients want to build confidence, repair hurt, and live a life they love."

"Hi, I'm Sharon, I'm a licensed Marriage and Family & trauma therapist at Foundations Center for Trauma Recovery. Every day at FCTR I have the privilege of working with the bravest folks on the planet & none of you know it when you first walk in the door. Most often you arrive feeling defeated, overwhelmed with anxiety & ashamed that you aren't able to "move past" or "get over" your sexual, physical or emotional trauma. It's also common for you to come & see me not because you are aware of trauma but because you have a nagging, chronic sense that something is just not right, an unhappiness; feeling unloved or unlovable, disconnected from friends and family, having lost a sense of purpose or direction. Without knowing that these symptoms may be telling us that a past trauma--long ago dismissed, minimized or buried deep inside is demanding to be addressed. "
