Therapists in 83001

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Jackson, WY. I work with a wide range of clients including children, teens, families, individual adults and couples. I was licensed in in California in 1999 and licensed in Wyoming in 2014. Common presenting problems include depression, mood, anxiety, attention and focus and these issue's impact on communication and in important personal and professional relationships.

I am a member of an internationally recognized organization Association of Certified Biblical Counselors. My desire is to equip you to meet the challenges of life by the transforming power of Jesus Christ. I offer faith-based counseling that is a biblical alternative to other mental health therapy. I believe that the Bible holds all the answers to life's challenges, so I seek to speak God's truth into your spiritual and mental psychological disorders. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, marriage and family struggles, gender identity or a variety of other life issues, I would love to meet with you.

My ideal client is one who is invested in improvement and change. Most people really want to do and feel better. As a generalist with 30 years of experience, I enjoy the diversity of problems and issues I get to help people with. Because my treatments are principle based, they apply to a broad range of needs. I provide practical solutions to real problems.

Life can be challenging, and people often search for meaning and purpose to help them get through difficult times. As a therapist, I work with couples, individual adults, and adolescents to help them find that meaning. To me, there are three primary sources of meaning: love for oneself and others, purposeful work, and courage when faced with difficulties. I believe that addiction, aggression, and depression are often the result of a lack of understanding of our purpose in life. I'm licensed to practice in Wyoming, California, and Idaho.

Whether your 3AM questions are "Stay or go?" - "Control it or quit it?" - "How to forget it?" - or "Why am I feeling this way?" - my work is about recognizing old patterns and pathways in the neural net, how trauma of any kind can stop new learning, and how to heal with new choices. I've worked with adolescents and families since 1966, directed programs in America and England, and now practice in Wilson & Alpine, Wyoming.

Clients I work with have an element of wanting to restore hope in themselves, their professions, their relationships, and their life overall. We work together to restore hope in the areas and dynamic of their choosing, using experiential and psychodramatic methods to achieve those results more effeciently and more impactfully. There are many therapeutic modalities that will offer a client COPING skills. My purpose is to provide a client with HEALING skills as we work together to restore hope in your life story.
