Ever feel like you are responsible for your kids and your parents? Responsibilities from both ends. Maybe you are stressed out over work, family, finances, or planning for the future. Are you worried about the future, maybe even the present? Never have a minute to relax. I’ve been there and I know just how you feel. Will it ever end? Is there any hope? Yes, there is. I have counseled many individuals over the years who were in your shoes. I walked with them through the valley. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Therapy is more important than ever before based on our current times. It can become even more challenging to handle personal traumas, while also navigating the collective trauma we are experiencing. Deciding to begin therapy is a very personal decision, and it is typically not an easy one. It is my prayer that I can be of service to you with navigating any current circumstances, while developing a model of personal growth, working collaboratively with you.

Our passion is to join people where they are, help them identify their goals, and walk with them through the process of making necessary changes to reach those goals. What a beautiful blessing to be invited into someone's story and to have the opportunity to help them to define or re-write it! We work with teen and adult clients who struggle with past traumatic memories or current relational or personal issues. We love to integrate a whole person approach into our work with people...mind, body, and spirit.

**NO INSURANCE ACCEPTED AT THIS TIME** Therapy is a time to process and work through difficult thoughts and feelings in collaboration with an objective and empathic partner, in a welcoming and supportive environment.

I enjoy working with people who believe they are at their breaking point and don't know what else to do. Whether it be "mid-life crisis", going off to college, school and work demands, relationship issues, struggles with parenting, stress, depression, anxiety or ADD. Do you look in the mirror and not recognize yourself? Does your teen appear to be struggling? Do you often wonder if there is something more? Have your friends or family told you that counseling might help you? If you are wondering if you would benefit from counseling then you would benefit from counseling. Life doesn't have to be this hard for you or someone you love.

Welcome to the first and most courageous step of therapy - looking for help and support. People are already amazing but sometimes life experiences, circumstances, illness and relationships can impose clouded judgment, maladaptive behavior, poor self esteem and obstacles from achieving what we truly desire and deserve. I am the type of therapist that is willing to be both vulnerable and open, speaking directly and honestly. My extensive work with adolescents and adults has taught me the importance of being genuine and down-to-earth, and thus, I work best with individuals who prefer a straightforward approach.

I love working with teenagers and young adults. Hard to imagine? Being a young adult is hard. Living with a teenager is hard. The day in-day out struggles facing our adolescents is often the spark that ignites family turmoil and school issues. My extensive experience with adolescents/young adults gives me a rich background from which to draw. We will work together to identify possible patterns and problems, and develop solution-focused strategies. Though I do enjoy working with adolescents/young adults, I have many years of experience working with adults who are struggling with work issues, grief and loss, and other difficulties.

Life is hard at times, particularly if you are a teenager or young adult! I can help with these difficult, hurtful and confusing challenges. Solutions are not always obvious or easily resolved. But, it is possible to make positive changes. Seeking therapy does not mean you are weak. Taking that step forward demonstrates strength and opens the door to new possibilities and change. While scary, change is good! Redirecting energy to the positive rather than the negative, removing toxicity from your life--and yes, even dealing with teenagers-- can be the result of a good therapeutic partnership.

Do you have a high-pressure job? Able to prioritize quickly, work well under pressure, juggle many things at once? This includes mothers, military, first responder, medical personnel, executive, or mental health professionals. High pressure jobs can often lead to the need for perfectionism, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, trauma, or addiction. If this sounds familiar you may need help. These kinds of work environments create unique stressors. Do you find yourself struggling with the weight of your profession while having a drive to push through? Your symptoms are spilling over into your personal life and you need a change.

I take a modern and integrative approach to counseling. I strive to provide each of my clients a safe and empathic space that allows for authentic connection and non-judgmental support. By implementing a variety of exercises and interventions, I believe my clients can grow their abilities to become effective observers of their lives and patterns. I enthusiastically collaborate with my clients to find ways to manage distress, increase positive experiences, and expand their knowledge around what it means to be "ok". I enjoy working with motivated clients and those looking for ways to push through their ambivalence towards change.

Just a brief history about me: My experience in psychotherapy/counseling began over 20 years ago and has included various populations who have shared stories of rejection, abandonment, and spiritual and emotional brokenness.
