"Despite being a professional by day, you have no idea how your life at home started feeling so chaotic and out of control. You and your partner don’t communicate like you used to and you certainly don’t have fun together anymore. Life is consumed by kids, sports, work, and errands. You aren’t having as much sex as you used to either. It feels like you lost yourself along the way and you don’t feel heard or understood by your partner when you try to talk. Things always end up in a fight. You’re exhausted and irritable and you feel alone. Friends and family mean well but they don’t get it. Not really. You need help."

"Are you feeling tired, can't keep up with your daily routine, and emotional for what seems to be no reason? It can be difficult to feel like the person you want to be if you have anger or resentment toward someone or disappointment in yourself. You can learn to forgive yourself and others and manage stress more effectively. If you suffer from depression or anxiety; grief or sadness; OCD; an eating disorder; women's, men's, or couple's issues; or communication and conflict resolution issues, please call me. If you have had any sort of trauma, even if it was a long time ago, the lasting effects can trigger us until it is resolved. "

"Life is complex. Navigating the many turns through life’s journey can be challenging and rewarding. It takes profound courage to ask for support along the way. I acknowledge and understand how difficult it can be to let someone into your world, which is why I strive to be authentic in all interactions and remain open to each unique, individual who entrusts me with their story. I offer an encouraging, warm, and collaborative approach to healing and welcome couples, families, adolescents, and adults."

"We often fall into old patterns that don't work for us any longer. We can feel stuck. We don't know how to make changes or what to do. Sometimes it is necessary to share your story with someone who can be objective and give you an alternative perspective. I will strive to give you the knowledge and skills to make these changes in a healthy and God-like manner. We will work together, at your pace and comfort level, to develop goals to improve your life. We will work to give your life balance in all areas."

"I operate from a holistic perspective and believe that every client should have the opportunity to a wellness journey tailored to them as a unique individual. My specialties include art therapy, mindfulness, and positively-focused talk therapy. I really enjoy helping individuals who have a vision for a better life and a desire to get there, and who may need to work through some personal or interpersonal barriers in the process. I strive to create a welcoming, stigma-free environment, and enjoy helping people create fulfilling, intentional lives, while leaving behind the negative beliefs that no longer serve them."

"Our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge--Audre Lorde. Attending to feelings, beliefs, and behaviors in a safe and accepting environment is at the forefront of our work together. Learning about the influence of past and present psychological, social, and cultural experience through ongoing self exploration is essential to understanding your internal world. Discovering the origin of and meanings attached to symptoms of depression, anxiety, conflict in personal/professional relationships, or difficulty managing emotions/behaviors are central to my approach. Increased awareness leads to clarity, and ultimately a greater capacity to gain mastery over your feelings, thoughts, and actions."

"While we all experience struggles, there are times when managing them can be more difficult. Feelings of vulnerability, shame, and fear can easily become chains that hold us down. We begin to give away our power by allowing others to decide how we experience ourselves, our relationships, and our lives. We can begin to feel stuck, ashamed, and unworthy. We use food, emotions, behaviors, alcohol, and drugs hoping to protect ourselves. In these attempts we surrender even more power. The energy we once used to live in love, abundance, and wellness is no longer available: as a limited resource, it's now all used up."

"I hope to be as helpful as possible to all my clients as they struggle with what life brings. I see it as my role as a therapist to come along side my clients as they walk through whatever issue brings them to my office. I have found good therapy starts with understanding the person you desire to support and that is my first goal."

"When skiing, it is important to keep your weight forward; leaning in gives you control. The paradox is that very often our thoughts and emotions scream for us to do the opposite, to lean back, away from what brings us anxiety and fear. In life, like in skiing, leaning back is a natural instinct, but too often it serves only to diminish our control and take us in a direction opposite from the one we desire. To move forward, with intention and control, we must 'lean in'. This can be scary, and sometimes, we need some help along the way."

"I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families. I see each client as unique with unique needs and strive to tailor the therapeutic experience to fit those needs. I am experienced working with issues that are unique to co-occurring disorder clients and understand the complex needs that these clients have. I also specialize in working with children who have experienced trauma and who struggle with depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicide, substance use, defiant behavior, have difficulty coping with stress, and those on the Autism Spectrum."

"Exhausted? Tired of feeling overwhelmed? Where do you go when venting is not enough? When you do not feel like yourself? When the weight becomes too much? Sometimes life gets messy, you feel stuck, or you're not sure of the next step. You may need a caring ear, a safe place to process and reflect, or a motivating discussion. It would be my privilege to be your trail guide as you conquer your mountain; motivating you, encouraging you, and more importantly, celebrating with you when you reach the top."

"YSB specializes in prevention and early intervention for families with children, adolescents, and young adults struggling with emotional or behavioral concerns. This is my passion, and I've been with YSB, serving families, for many years. We are effective and we have the results to demonstrate that. "

"People are capable of tremendous growth and change, and the vehicle for change is self-understanding. We all develop a sense of self based on our past experiences, many of which we don't even remember. Understanding this sense of self and letting go of unhelpful beliefs about ourselves is the key to happiness. Western culture has unintentionally labeled many human experiences as pathological, needing to be "cured". Therapy experiences should not be about illness, but rather about meeting one's full potential."

"I have a heart and a passion for working with women, especially with those in the healthcare field. I have experience and enjoy working with doctors, nurses, counselors, psychologists, mothers, military members, ministers, and those who serve in a caretaker role of some capacity. I understand the challenges that come with being a caregiver or service member and needing help ourselves."

"My expertise is in working with children, adolescents, and their families. I have experience working with clients who have symptoms or diagnoses of anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral concerns including tantrums, social skills difficulties, siblings conflict, low self-esteem and many others."
