On this journey call life, there are many ups and downs, twists and turns. Everyone needs someone to talk to in a comfortable non-judgmental safe atmosphere, a place providing warmth, compassion, and respect. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I have learned to ask amazing questions and then listen. My primary focus is helping women who are working through issues of depression, anxiety, grief/bereavement, obesity/weight loss, chronic pain, relationship matters, everyday stressors, or work-life balance issues. A holistic comprehensive approach is tailored to consider the whole person, while exploring the interactions between the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and social aspects of life.

I have over 15 years working with children and teens who have experienced trauma. I enjoy working with this population to address anxiety, depression, family issues, self-image issues, and trauma. I also see children or teens who have chronic medical conditions and help them adjust to the changes of their lives now that they have this condition. I use evidenced based treatments to address the issues and meet every person where they are in the treatment process. I enjoy watching the progress that is made so that the children and adolescents see there is a light at the end of the tunnel and we can reach it together.

My desire is to help individuals, couples, families and peers, to be the best they can be. Pouring positivity in lives, deep listening, and mindfulness are a few ways to reduce stress and increase happiness.

Seeking help can be difficult and rewarding. Counseling can be the first step in making life changes. I believe that all we need is a little guidance and support to help us through our journey of life changes. Are you struggling to find yourself or balance your life? Are you struggling with stress, excessive worrying or intense feelings of sadness? Are you hurting in some aspect of life and want things to be different? Are you stuck in a rut and looking for change? Please know that there's someone out there that can help.

Additionally, I work with teenagers and adults who have autism spectrum disorders, helping these individuals and their families gain practical skills and insight for better relationships and improved coping skills.

I started Family Matters Counseling Center after I realized that a family system is one that the client creates and is not born into. From here I developed a passion to learn each unique families story to help them overcome their obstacle in maintaining balance within their family system. I help clients re-ignite their passion and hope in reaching their career and personal goals. I do this in a collaborative and gentle approach as I assist you in your journey with every step.

Seeking treatment for the first time or searching for a new therapist, can be overwhelming. I believe the relationship between a therapist and client to be paramount in reaching treatment goals. If you don't connect with your therapist, you're probably not going to do your best work and achieve your goals. I find this to be true for adults and more so for pre-teens and adolescents. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental atmosphere for clients to be their true self and express their truest thoughts and feelings. I aim to assist clients in identifying their most genuine and fulfilling life by individualizing treatment to the client.

Are you at a point in your life where sadness, frustration, or fear seem to be dominating more than the joy and peace you deserve? Has this lead to not only your difficulties in spirit, but also detriment in your relationships? We have all been there, in at least one time in our life or another and when we are, the wounds we have deep inside are exposed by the vicious cycle we get caught up in. This exposes the negativity toward self, and hinders our ability to see hope and light.
