Life often throws curve balls at us, leaving us without direction, hurting, and unsure of ourselves as well as the world around us. In that time, we find ourselves behaving and feeling ways that are not true reflections of who we are. Things from our past can really haunt us if we don't process them. My ideal client wants to process what they have been through and make changes for their future selves.

In counseling, my focus is to meet clients where they are, help them determine where they want to be, and enable them to accomplish their goals. Change is possible! It takes work, but it is worth it to become the person you want to be. I have seen clients rise above unbelievable challenges and accomplish their goals. I have also walked along side those who are grieving or hurting to see them blossom out of the depths of their experiences.

Do you have relationships in your life that are struggling? Do you ever feel that your life would be much easier if the people in it would "get it together"? The reality is that we do not exist alone. I help people explore their own unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to negative interactions and relationships with others. The truth is that we cannot change other but we can change the way in which we interact with them. Give me a call so we can get started on your journey to healthier relationships with yourself and others.

My ideal client is seeking therapy for a traumatic event(s) in their life. They are needing a safe space to share their experience and as they share, they are needing a therapist to help them put emotions/words to their story. Their goals include learning grounding techniques to help them when they become triggered, being able to think about the event without become anxious/depressed. Also, this client will want to be able to process their feelings and emotions around the event. It is hard to experience healing from traumatic events when we aren't able to understand our emotions or when we are unable to tell our story.

I help teenagers and adults manage their anxiety and stress better. There is a level of anxiety that is normal, that everyone feels, and that can even be productive. Then there is the kind of anxiety that is crippling—that is not often understood by those around us and that gets in the way of our happiness. It can keep you up at night, make you constantly distracted, affect your work or school performance, and even make you physically sick. Sometimes it can feel like anxiety comes out of nowhere, leaving you feeling confused, helpless, and desperate to find some relief (even if it's not in a healthy way).
