We all have strengths and skills that help us overcome obstacles. However, certain problems can sometimes surface that cause us to get discouraged, distracted, or fearful as we move through life. If you have difficulty finding the right strategy to address these challenges, you can get stuck. With a PhD in counseling psychology, I have worked in counseling centers and private practice for over 10 years. With my background in psychology and helping others, my objective has been to draw on my training and experiences to help clients learn practical tools for daily living. This starts with smart thinking.

I enjoy engaging with people about their lives, hearing what matters to them, what's meaningful, and encouraging them to live lives in alignment with those preferences. I partner with people to feel the permission really to be alive. I find it important to keep the work connected to what clients value; that fuels the resilience to tolerate change, hard conversations, and uncomfortable feelings (common elements of therapy). Given this, my ideal client/s is interested in feeling more self-acceptance, capacity to tolerate others, and to face unhelpful, old patterns with love in order to encourage choice and the possibility of change.

Approval seeking, bad relationships and addictions keep us from living out our true potential, but they're not the real problem. Many practitioners provide a long list of conditions, diagnoses and symptoms they treat. Frankly, I'm not all that interested in symptoms: I want to help you figure out why you've been using the same strategies for years and expecting different results. If you want to stop waking up every morning and hoping that somehow - today - your life is somehow going to be different, you've got to DO something different.
