As a counselor, I have a particular interest in working with clients, predominantly female 16 years or older, who have OCD and anxiety. I enjoy working with clients to retrain their nervous system to find much sought after relief. As I am a fully certified Brainspotting therapist, many of my clients find healing through utilizing this approach which is a therapeutic method that taps into and releases emotional blockages within the brain and body. I believe long-lasting change can happen for clients when we explore and treat the root of the issue.

Relationships can be hard. I enjoy working with adults and couples with a variety of concerns. By using the EFT model, the goal is to move from rigid patterns of engagement to openness and flexibility. We do this by untangling the "knots" of rigidity and finding the threads of connection in your relationship and with yourself. I will spend time with you, increasing your awareness about your emotional experience and how it impacts your relationships. I have a special interest in working with clients who wish to explore forgiveness as a means to improve their connections with others.

Therapy is a time and place set aside to focus entirely on you. I work with clients to explore issues that need special attention and to address complex problems. Over the past 20+ years, I have helped individuals, families, and couples move through difficult times. My primary focus is on helping couples, families, and individuals overcome the effects of attachment wounds and traumatic experiences so that they can find meaning and joy in life. Common issues I address are communication difficulties, conflict, healing from trauma, building emotional regulation skills, and coping with depression and anxiety.

Have you been told you have PTSD? Or, do you have anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or negative self-talk that all started with a traumatic event(s)? If so, you have come to the right place. People with trauma often find themselves spending countless hours in therapy but not getting lasting relief. That is because not every therapist is specially trained to treat trauma, and not every therapy intervention is able to access the part of the brain where traumatic memories live.

Waitlist for new clients
We are all unique and so are the struggles we face daily. Being unique is great, yet there comes a time when we are faced with challenges, feeling stuck, frustrated, angry or simply misunderstood. It is during these times that it is beneficial to seek someone outside of that current situation for fresh insight, an objective perspective and a listening, non-judgmental ear. Sometimes an outsider looking in may be exactly what you need in order to identify and develop the best solution to meet your unique and individual needs. Life is full of ups and downs- in therapy we learn how to maneuver through the waves of life.

Layers of grief, complicated family history, a genetic predisposition to mental illness, a traumatic experience, stressful changes -- or a combination of these things -- can be very difficult to manage or recover from by yourself. A seemingly unendurable situation or relationship can be overwhelming without support. If you've done all you know to do and you're still feeling stuck, I can help. I'd like to partner with you to find the clarity, wisdom, strength, comfort and supports you need to feel better about yourself and your relationships -- and to enjoy your life more.

I help women struggling with the effects of anxiety on everyday life. Anxiety tells you that it will always be this way. The cycle of overthinking, avoidance & shame create patterns that feel impossible to break. Unhealthy patterns of thinking leave you feeling exhausted, hopeless and scared. Your life is meant for so much more. Maybe you’re tired of the personal struggle, overwhelmed by transition, or you’re feeling helpless as a parent to an anxious child, but something has to give. You are ready to come up for air and walk in the confident hope of your future. I can help.
