I love working with children, adolescents and adults who know a better life is possible, but lack the tools, self-esteem and/or support needed to overcome old patterns and create a new way of being. The kids I support in the playroom often struggle to communicate, manage their behavior, exhibit confidence, problem solve and positively relate to others. Adolescents and adults I serve may have experienced harmful relationships, traumatic events, or notice difficulties feeling comfortable in their own skin. It would be an honor to accompany you on life's journey of ups and downs as you heal the past and work toward a brighter future.

It's difficult to figure out what to do when the bottom drops out from under you! How do I make sense of this? Will life ever be normal again? These are valid thoughts and feelings when you feel gripped by anxiety or life isn't going as you had thought or planned. While facing pain can be scary and challenging, I believe change is possible. If you feel stuck, I want to walk with you and help you find your way forward towards connectedness and wholehearted living. I am honored to come alongside you to help you develop healthy patterns and live to become the person you are created to be. I'm here to help you find hope.

Seeking help can be overwhelming, so many questions ... How do I choose the right therapist? Do I need therapy? What will it be like? Will this help me? Many share these understandable questions. My firm belief based on living life and working with others, is that challenging life experiences can be transformed into valuable life experiences. Something can be learned, even gained, from every experience. Painful memories can be reconsolidated and transformed. As I counselor, I make every effort to provide a safe comfortable space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings in a supportive, caring, and respectful manner.

Let's be honest. This is a challenging time and space to be living in. There is so much more you can control in your life experience than what society leads you to believe. I'd be honored to offer you a place of support, a genuinely connected relationship, and my expertise (in nerdy stuff like neuroscience and the cognitive process) to help defeat whatever is standing between you & the life you deserve. My goal is to bring hope and SOLUTION to negative things my clients are experiencing through their own personal empowerment.

I especially enjoy working with couples who are looking for ways to strengthen or repair their marriage. The children and teens in these families may also be experiencing challenges in coping with the stress of life, and I work with them to develop healthier ways to engage with parents, friends and school.

You did it - you took the first step toward a more enriched life. Yes, therapy can be scary, but so can continuing to exist day to day without fulfillment, fire, or clarity. No, we don't have to analyze your childhood for years in order for progress and steps forward to take place. What I will offer is a collaborative approach and meet you exactly where you are.

As individuals, we experience influences, temptations, trials and tribulations in different times in our lives, which can leave you feeling hopeless, helpless, out of control or like you have failed. I understand how life and environments can become a routine, a pattern, and sometimes an unhealthy cycle. I am here to help you identify and make steps toward being the kind of person or family you want to be.
