My work is dedicated to helping people develop healthy and satisfying lives and relationships. Though it can be difficult to make the decision to begin psychotherapy, I have found that those who have sought my help have achieved valuable results. I offer confidential psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. I have an expertise of working with clients dealing with issues of depression, anxiety and trauma, along with learning to cope with relationship issues and managing through difficult life transitions. I am committed to helping you receive the services best suited for you.

It's hard being a human, and sometimes we experience a great deal of suffering. The pleasant news is the body/mind and human spirit have the innate capacity to heal. Yes, even when it feels like you're totally stuck, when your nervous system is overwhelmed, and things seem to be falling apart around you. Perhaps it's been years or decades feeling like you're fighting against the current of life. Maybe its more recent events and circumstances have activated an energetic buzz of fear/anxiety/grief/longing... Whatever the case may be, you're here NOW.

I know that choosing a counselor or therapist is a very personal and individual process. With over 10 years of experience working with Children, Adults, Families, and Couples, I have seen my clients make significant changes to improve their lives and the lives of those they love. I feel honored to be a part of and to witness my clients growth and progress. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe deeply in the power of counseling and would be happy to meet with you to discuss your specific needs.

EMDR/Trauma Therapy: Are you a sensitive soul or empath perhaps overwhelmed by the stress in our world? I am here to help you find your balance again and offer support and tools to establish a clearer, resilient path moving forward. I will help you re-evaluate your needs from a holistic perspective to feel good again, to find wellness and peace. Different from traditional therapy, I offer guidance that looks at all aspects of health, incorporating both your psychological & physical health/wellness in counseling. This approach means longer term sustained progress.

Therapy can be initially a very stressful undertaking, that may or should initiate change. I like to look at the positives of change and how that makes a person feel better about themselves and their outlook on life, now and in the future. In my 20 plus years of experience as a therapist I have found that the relationship between the client and therapist is most important for this to occur and for real healing to begin. I feel that my calm and excepting demeanor is a good fit for people to begin this process. It should be noted that I do not do marriage or couples therapy as my colleagues are a better fit and I prefer individuals

My experience lends itself to working with many different types of people. Thus, I enjoy working with adolescents, teens and adults; both male and female. Issues of specialty include: identity issues, self-mutilation, behavioral issues, sexual assault, trauma, coping skills, anxiety, and depression.

Do you feel overwhelmed, unhappy, or anxious? Are you grieving a loss or struggling with infertility? Maybe you are struggling with food, disordered eating or a negative body image. Are you looking to improve your relationships so you feel more at ease and satisfied in your life? Perhaps you are experiencing health issues that are impacting how you feel about yourself. Life can be difficult and sometimes we need someone outside our circle to listen, understand and support us through these challenges. If you are looking to make a change, I would be honored to assist you along your journey.

Going to your first counseling session can be scary, and my goal is to help you feel comfortable and let you know that I am listening. I focus on helping clients work through cognitive distortions and negative thought patterns. I believe that every person deserves a chance to tell their story, to know that they are heard and that their story matters. I take a holistic approach to counseling, considering the many physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional aspects of a person’s health. I am excited to work with clients of all demographics and I bring a considerable amount of life experience to the counseling field.

Life can be complicated for different reasons. Sometimes more support can help. At any age, life can be overwhelming, negative behaviors can persist, relationships trapped in hurtful patterns, or inner worlds caught in negative thinking which stretch our coping, and cause stress. In all this WE WANT TO FEEL BETTER! Counseling offers a private, confidential space to get help. It is an honor to listen and join in your life story. I work with adults/couples/families/teens and children, listening to your goals to bring balance, health, wellness, peace and more happiness.

Throughout our lives, family relationships can bring us great joy and sometimes great stress. These relationships are always complicated. I can help individuals and families navigate the "ups and downs" of everyday life or difficult transitions. Because of years of experience working with pre-teens and adolescents in the schools, I have a special understanding of the unique needs of kids. Everyone in the family deserves to be heard and families who learn to really listen to each other and work on a plan for change, will build lasting, happy memories. I can help you get there.
