January 2017: I am not currently taking new patients at this time. I am a warm and charismatic provider and am excited to become a resource and support for you. If you have become overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, are worried that you have developed an addiction, or are managing other transitions, you may be at the precipice of profound growth. Together we can create a safe space to navigate your change efforts in a gentle and affirming way. I employ the relational-cultural model.

Sometimes life events can leave us feeling disconnected, from ourselves and from others. You may find yourself sleeping too much, or too little. Aches and pain may be showing up in your body. Perhaps you are finding yourself playing out the same old patterns in your relationships and are wondering, “How did I get here?” Maybe you don’t feel quite like you are living life the way you dreamed you would.

Life is like an ocean of possibilities. There are times in life that you are floating along just fine, times were you are riding high on the waves, and then there are times you feel like you are caught in a strong under current, struggling to keep from drowning. Whether you are dealing with depression, emotional challenges, trauma, relationship issues, or difficult life transitions and circumstances, you do not have to navigate them alone. My role as, your therapist is to support and challenge you to reach your personal goals, with compassion and understanding, in a empathetic, judgment free partnership. I do offer tele-heatlh

Sometimes life is just hard; it hurts and things just don’t seem fair or right. Perhaps you are experiencing loss, a struggle, dealing with grief, setbacks in life, feelings of sadness or despair, anxious or just unsure of how to cope. Life feels upside down. While such feelings are difficult and real, pain and growth in life can coexist. What is most important is, today you have taken a positive first step seeking support. You have made a choice to do something different with your life. Our mind, which means our thinking, our brain and our body serve as indicators of what's working or not. Thinking gets stuck or we miss signals.

I'm a clinical psychologist who enjoys working with adults to solve life's challenges in individual and couples therapy. My clients mostly struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and difficulties adjusting to life changes. I also work with couples to gain a more satisfying relationship based on friendship and intimacy. While therapy can seem like an uncertain journey, it often leads to remarkable growth and self-discovery with the right professional support.

It has been pointed out to me by clients, colleagues, family and friends that they find it easy to talk to me. It is not uncommon for strangers to share there challenges and successes with me after a few words of casual conversation. If I were to list what I thought allows me to build rapport so easily, I would have to say that I believe it is because people are able to sense that I care about them genuinely. As a therapist, I care about seeing each one of my clients reach the goals that they set for themselves.

I have a warm and empowering approach to therapy. My first priority is to understand you as a person and listen deeply to what you are struggling with and how you desire to grow. Many of the clients I work with are suffering due to events that they, their ancestors, and/or their community experienced which may have involved oppression, attachment wounds, mood related difficulties, loss, or others impacts. I offer a place where you can identify and explore emotions without experiencing judgment, learn ways to sit with pain without it becoming overwhelming, and begin to feel whole, valuable, and connected.

I provide counseling, therapy, consulting and coaching services to individuals, couples, and families. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults and couples. Compassion, warmth and objectivity are what I offer each individual that walks into my practice. Clients are accepted for who they are while receiving encouragement to become self-aware, grow and thrive within their communities. My goal is to create a safe space for revival of soul (Mind, Will, & Emotions); rebuilding weakened and destroyed personal, family and social foundations;(revealing) putting into proper perspective life's challenges and their effectiveness for advancement, and experiencing restoration of the total being.

Tired of facing this alone? Need someone to trust to listen without placing judgment? So often, we try to handle things alone for too long. By the time we ask for help, the problem feels out of control. I want to help you to figure this out and get out from under whatever burden or decision is on you. Whether it is the past, work stress, grief over a loss, regret, anxiety, depression, or a behavior interfering with your life goals, I will work with you to try to figure this out.

Whether navigating relationship challenges, recovering from trauma, or preventing workplace burnout, my psychodynamic orientation and expertise in expressive arts therapies illuminates how your experiences interact with your mind, body, and spirit - giving you the power to take ownership over your life’s story.

I provide expressive, action-based opportunities for change. Find out more about drama therapy by visiting www.nadta.org.

Tired? Exhausted? Frustrated? Agitated? Too many time Constraints? Are you always expected to be "on"? Are others pulling on you, while you can barely find time for your own "stuff"? Are you the "strong friend" without an outlet? Does anyone have time to really listen to your concerns? Does anyone care about what is really going on with you? We know all about it. As a professional, you are always expected to be "on your best behavior". But that costs! It costs the suppression of inner feelings, desires, peace within and at times, hope! I am here to help you be heard and help you have the words to be able to express what's going on.

Feeling stuck in your ability to make lasting and meaningful life changes? Or looking for someone to help you cope with anxiety or relationship issues? I specialize in working with individuals as young as 16, but most commonly work with young and older adults who struggle with disordered eating, anxiety, depression, acute and complex trauma, interpersonal issues, communication problems, complications with life transitions, and intimacy issues. Additionally, I welcome and have extensive experience working with individuals who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and individuals in polyamorous or non-traditional relationships.

Life can be hard. No matter how healthy, smart, hardworking or successful we may be, we can find ourselves facing unexpected challenges and feeling overwhelmed or confused. I work with adults of all ages and walks of life. Some are depressed or anxious or angry or grieving. Some want to grow or understand themselves better. If you want to grow; if you are struggling; if your challenge is too complex to work through on your own; if you do not want to burden family or friends; then working with a therapist can be helpful and emotionally safe.

Everyone has a necessary journey throughout life and sometimes additional support is needed along the way. My interactions with clients are grounded in compassion, respect, empathy, and an understanding of cultural impacts. I consider the role of a therapist as helping to educate and empower clients so that they develop the insight and skills necessary to overcome their own personal and situational challenges.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS). I specialize in populations dually diagnosed with Mental Health and Substance Abuse Disorders. I am trained in Multi-Systemic Therapy; a family focused evidenced based model. Other training include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing which is primarily used with populations battling chemical addiction.

I believe that each individual/family/couple has the skills within themselves to work through problems in their lives. Through therapy these skills are brought forth and increased so that everyone can live the life they desire. I also believe in supporting the strengths of each individual/family/couple and welcome the incorporation of faith into one's therapy as one sees fit. I primarily work with adolescents, adults, and couples. I work with those struggling with depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, marital issues and other disorders and issues.
