To me, life is like a river, sometimes peaceful and gently flowing and at other times unexpectedly rough, with rapids and unforeseen obstacles. It is my honor to sit with you in the hard, the unknown, and the unexpected, providing a calm and safe space for you to be heard. We can work together to help you discover and understand emotions unfamiliar or even unknown, navigate decisions yet to be made, and integrate your past with your present. Together, we can help you understand how stories of who you were told you were and who you have told yourself you are in the past do not have to define who you are today.

Another day of throwing outfits on the floor- you don’t like the way anything looks on you. You wonder, should I try this new diet? It might be exactly what I need. It is the same thing day after day. What am I going to eat today? How will I look after eating this? You never feel satisfied with your body and are always trying to find some way to fix it.

I strongly believe in the power and importance of the therapeutic relationship between me and my clients. There is nothing more important to me than building trust and safety so that you feel comfortable opening up about what is happening in your life.

I know that I feel my best when I’m secure in my relationships: with myself, my spouse, my children, and community. This has created a practice for me of paying attention, listening and participating in conversations that both nurture and challenge these relationships. I will create a space, through our relationship, for you to do the same. And if it is your child that is seeking that safe space my playroom invites curiosity and emotions of all sorts. It is a safe space to work through trauma; with play as the language and toys as tools, and a soft spot to land when it gets hard and scary.

There has to be more to Mental Care than crisis management, disorders, illnesses, or diagnosis labeling. We are proactive in the maintenance of our bodies, yet, we neglect the "main computer" the mind, the psyche, the CORE of us. We, at CORE, believe in working hard - Mental Health Boot Camp - if you get the drift. Compassion is abundant at CORE but not in the form of soft talk. You are doing hard work and we take it serious. As a team we will discover those aspects of "self" that make us all so amazing. We will walk together sharing life's stories and how they do or do not define who you are at our CORE.

Life certainly has its ups and downs and I am a firm believer in getting the support that best suits you. Therapy is for anyone who would like to feel better, experience more fulfillment, have more clarity, overcome obstacles, and grow stronger & wiser. I believe we can all benefit from taking the time to better ourselves, yet this process is different for each client. For some it might mean putting proven strategies in place to accomplish goals. For others it might include healing from past traumas in order to move past what is holding them back. Developing effective coping skills is at the foundation of it all.

Often people experience feeling unseen, unheard, and unworthy. It is very important to me to create a therapeutic environment where we can navigate complex emotional challenges. I strive to provide a safe, least restrictive, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore and navigate their emotions and feelings. I specialize in addressing suicidal ideation, self-harm, depression, relationship issues, and grief and loss. I also specialize in supporting staff who operate crisis lines. I ground my practice in person-centered/ humanistic therapy techniques. I believe in the inherent worth and dignity of each individual.
