I believe that counseling is individualized and my focus during sessions is about you. As your therapist, I value your input while tailoring my counseling approach to best fit your needs through a compassionate approach. I work with clients who face symptoms of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, anger, and issues of shame and guilt utilizing a Solution Focused approach in my sessions. I also utilize techniques of Cognitive Behavioral therapy. Through these approaches counseling will assist you in decreasing life’s barriers and promote personal growth. I am also accepting Saturday appointments to best fit your schedule.

No one can tell you exactly what your therapy route will be like; you and I will establish goals for your therapy and determine the steps you will take to get there. My hope is that we can work together to help you feel at-ease and become confident in finding solutions.

I believe that every person has value and is meant to be on this earth. Most people saw the best in themselves and others when, at some point they were overcome with hurt, disappointment, or other life challenges. We were never meant to carry those burdens alone. I am here to offer a safe, non-judgemental space for you. I offer in office sessions, walk-and-talk, and have partnered with Wild Hearts n Horses to offer equine-assisted therapy.

Mental health is as important as physical health. I assist clients with a wide range of needs. I work with individuals, families, and couples to help them address needs in areas of communication, boundaries, anxiety, depression, defiant behavior, self esteem and trauma. Through therapy, the client(s) is provided a safe space to explore barriers and strengths to resolving negative core beliefs and maladaptive behaviors by learning to develop appropriate boundaries, coping skills and communication skills.

Beginning therapy and finding a new therapist can feel challenging and even scary. Therapy is a collaborative process built on developing trust, empathy and acceptance. Therapy can be useful in working through negative experiences related to self-esteem, identity, relationships, communication, intrusive thoughts, and past trauma.

Modern life is stressful. We often feel like we don't have enough time, enough money, enough energy, or enough confidence in ourselves. We spend too much time feeling anxious or depleted. There is an alternative to the constant, unrelenting treadmill and chaos. There is another way of being present in your life and available to those you love. I practice Mindfulness-Based Psychology and Mindful Self-Compassion. By learning these skills, you can begin to slow down, befriend yourself, and make choices that reflect and further your values and dreams, rather than those imposed on you.

"I enjoy working with individuals and family's of all ages. Anxiety, depression, and or trauma can all pile up and prevent us from living a fulfilling life. These pieces in life can feel like they are entangling or piling up. I can help unravel, sort through and process what life events have come up and find joy for the future by meeting you where you are at this time in life and finding a path".

"Growth demands a temporary surrender of security." - Gail Sheehy This is one of the reasons why change and growth can be so tough! Real growth can be frightening and uncomfortable and it requires us to step well outside our comfort zone.

"Don't start tomorrow, with the broken pieces of Yesterday". If you have felt this way, or are feeling this way please consider seeking out someone to talk with. I have several years experience in a therapeutic setting working with individuals with depression, anxiety, poor self-esteem, grief/loss, abuse, post partum depression, parenting relationship problems, school related problems, adjustment disorders and addictions. I have a special interest in working with children and adolescents, but I do welcome all ages. I utilize a number of different techniques as I believe that no single person is the same.

I have had a recent diagnosis which is going to take me away from working as a therapist for the forseeable future. Not able to take on new (long-term) clients, and having to let go of current clients too. I have loved working with you through the years, but for now I've got to work on my own health issues. Best of luck to you in your search for an awesome therapist!

I help clients realize what powerful resources they have within themselves to achieve their goals, to solve their problems, and to heal. My clients frequently discover options they did not realize they had. I do this by using a variety of approaches, tailored to the person's past experiences, the issues the client is trying to resolve and the objectives the person is trying to achieve. My goal is to help individuals move toward a greater mind/body/spirit connection within themselves and toward enriched relationships with others.
