Has your sexual relationship with your partner seen better days? Many of us live stressful lives with careers, family obligations and other stressors that can wreck havoc on our sex lives. Time or illness changes our bodies in ways that we may not be prepared for. Many people wonder if they are "normal" or if their problem can be helped, but don't know how to start the conversation with a healthcare provider or their partner. Maybe you feel you're ready to address past sexual trauma. Or possibly simply spice things up! I welcome folx of all shapes, sizes, orientations and presentations, including Poly/ENM and kink.

As the result of my work with a wide array of individuals with a variety of presenting mental health needs, I believe true healing must be viewed from an all-encompassing therapeutic approach that considers the whole person. This includes aspects such as their identity/sense of self, upbringing, traumas, interpersonal relationships, personality, as well as their presenting environmental circumstances. Therapeutic goals include helping suffering persons to find meaning/purpose in their lives, develop more effective ways of communicating/connecting with others, and to critically evaluate their beliefs, values, and choices.

I believe therapy should be about a caring, collaborative relationship that helps build a life that you desire. I am here to be supportive, encouraging and find the way to turn weaknesses into strengths and emphasize already positive qualities. In an upbeat and safe environment, therapy will focus on building skills and developing healthy lifestyle habits to cope with whatever depression, anxiety or trauma symptoms you are struggling with. I want to help you build a life you want by decreasing those symptoms, and increasing your abilities.

I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.

We will get through the hard days and celebrate the good days. Lets put you first.

Life is hard. Therapy helps. My goal as a therapist is to partner with my clients to help them identify their unique strengths, and then apply those strengths toward creative solutions that work. I believe my greatest strength as a counselor is my ability to be straightforward while also offering hope and empathy. I cherish the therapeutic relationships I build with each person, couple, and family I counsel. I'm highly invested in helping you get what YOU want out of counseling, and helping you find peace, happiness, and a healthier, more satisfying life.

Do you feel your mind constantly racing? Feeling trapped inside your own head with thoughts and emotions that you can't manage can feel unbearable. It can cause difficulties in relationships, friendships, and work. It can cause us to feel disconnected and unable to enjoy the positive moments in life. I have helped many clients learn how to quiet the constant voice of worry and learn to take back control of their emotions and relationships.

Are you struggling mentally? Having a hard time making positive decisions or following through on them? You've come to the right place to get the assistance you need. My approach to the therapeutic process is to first explore how your thoughts and feelings affect you, learn where they originated and how they connect to the beliefs and behaviors you express in your life. With intentional engagement in the therapeutic process, you will learn and implement effective strategies to help improve how you experience and interact with your world so you can heal, engage in positive behaviors, and explore the world with a lighter heart.

Life sometimes can be hard and feel overwhelming. We can often feel stressed, want to be happier, have the need to set better boundaries with our work/personal/school life, and need to navigate through various life transitions. No matter the barriers you face, let therapy be the time you set aside to focus on you and what you deserve to work on for yourself.

So many of us suffer from a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, mood swings, suicidal thoughts and more. I want people want to feel better and to ENJOY their lives. Symptoms that accompany these issues will stop us from experiencing that joy. I want to help you overcome the challenges in your life, so you can get back to LIVING your life. You deserve to have meaningful relationships, create memories, and feel at peace with yourself.

No matter where you are in life, sometimes we all need help adjusting to our “new normal.” I specialize in anxiety, life transitions, and over-control as a means to cope with life. Perhaps you are entering or completing college, graduate school, becoming a new parent, contemplating a career change, experiencing loss, or adjusting to new circumstances in your life. Do you try to plan or perfect each aspect of life, in order to keep your anxiety in check? Welcome.

I have years of experience working with youth, adolescents and their families dealing with a range of issues from juvenile delinquency, substance abuse and trauma. I have developed professionalism and discipline form my time in the U.S. Army, and have extensive experience in education and coaching. I have spent years helping youth academically, athletically and socially. I have worked with the offender populations and have demonstrated a safe and caring space for this marginalized group. In addition, I have worked with victims of abuse, and have created a safe, caring empathetic place for them to process their concerns. My experience has allowed me to develop the unique ability to bridge the gap between, offender/victim, teacher/student, caregiver/child, felon/community and individual/system. If you are in need of culturally competent, evidenced based treatment, with a focus on solutions, and a balanced approach of love and logic, faith and fact then look no further.

I specialize in helping children/adolescents identify and express their needs in healthy and manageable ways. When school, peer, or home interactions become challenging, it's sometimes hard for children/adolescents to feel seen and heard. I am here to help your child identify their strengths, create consistent positive coping strategies, and become their own best advocates in every environment. I have convenient after-school/evening appointment availability!

Since attending therapy is an implicit admission of imperfections for most people, my approach to counseling is person-centered and collaborative. Once the therapeutic alliance has been established, this approach allows clients to express their emotional reactions, develop more productive ways of dealing with feelings, and increase their levels of understanding and awareness. My counseling philosophy is to provide support, education, feedback and treatment that inspires clients to successfully take appropriate actions that will assist with solving their problems. Therapist qualities that I utilize include, but are not limited to, mutual respect, authenticity, genuineness, integrity, and the ability to empathize.
