***NOW OFFERING ONLINE COUNSELING***Do you ever feel stuck? Stuck in your relationships or stuck in your thoughts. You feel like no matter what I’ll never be good enough. You feel alone, frustrated and not understood. Do you wish you had a “start over” button? You struggle with the “should” and “if only” this or that would have happened. Do you feel disconnected from the people that you care about? Have you started using substances or behaviors in unhealthy ways to cope with things that have just not gone according to plan? Do you ever think about the future and feel hopeless not hopeful.

We serve individuals who are currently finding it difficult to manage life stressors as it relates to work, relationships, dealing with losses, school stress and/or other life challenges.

If you are haunted by past trauma that doesn’t seem to get better with time, I am able to help you find relief. If your relationship has hit an all-time low, and you don't know if you can take it much longer, I can give you the tools to work through conflict and reclaim the love you have for one another. If having affairs or watching porn has gotten out of control for you or someone you love, together we can move toward healing for both you and your partner. If you’ve been disillusioned by religion and need to find a safe place to heal from spiritual abuse, I can walk with you as you find the kind of spirituality that works for you.

We can never make peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves...Dalai Lama. Is it time to begin making peace with yourself?

Your relationship has changed. Anxious thoughts are starting to creep in. You keep asking yourself, “Is it just me?” Glimpses of the person you fell in love with show up now and then, so you hope for better days to come. You still care for each other, even though the good memories are becoming more distant. If only she could listen, if only he understood what I was going through, if only we could find the right words to say, if only we could move forward. You long for connection and understanding. You’ve tried to be there for each other but feel like you are falling into cycles that you can’t get out of.

You are worn out and tired of the drama, big behaviors, fighting and discord in your relationships. Is there something big about who you are or who they are that might be affecting your relationship? You have self- doubt and think you must be the problem. You keep telling yourself you won’t let it happen again, but nothing seems to change? You feel tired, depressed, and even angry that you are not enjoying deep, personal rewarding relationships with a spouse, parents, your children or a significant other in your life. You want a change, you want to find healthy rewarding ways to get your needs met in a relationship.

It’s time to step into a life of wholeness. Whether the past keeps you from moving forward or the thought of the future makes you fearful, you can begin to heal and grow as you resolve the effects of challenges that have kept you from living a fulfilling life. I specialize in promoting healing in the counseling process through addressing the whole person, spirit, mind, and body. Behavioral patterns and negative beliefs and perceptions may be preventing you from experiencing a life with hope and meaning.

Life is full of moments. At times, moments are difficult or negative. Those moments can be full of life scenarios including mental health difficulties that are overwhelming and hard to maneuver alone. My desire is to work with you and empower you to understand your obstacles, provide a safe place to work through them, and become who you have always been destined to be.

My belief is that each individual deserves to be happy, and I respect the diversity and authenticity of my clients.

Counseling is most effective when it is interactive. Whether clients are working on reducing the effects of stress, anxiety, or trauma, teaching clients how to control their responses to their environment is very important. All of us want to feel like we are in control of ourselves at a minimum. When we learn to control our responses in stressful situations in a manner that is acceptable for us, we can begin to feel content the majority of the time.

You're tired of pretending everything is fine! You feel like your heart is broken. You've lost sight of who you are and are desperate to find your inner spark again. You feel like you can't move forward because of things that have happened in the past, and you are fearful of the future. There's so much in your head that you don't even know where to start to find peace. You want a safe, confidential space to share your story with someone who listens and understands without judgment. Let's get you moving forward!

You struggle with feeling good enough. Things may look pretty good on the outside, but inside you don't really know who you are. There is always that voice that tells you you're not good enough. Saying yes all the time, people pleasing, working harder no longer has the same effect it used to. You don't know what else to do. Deep inside you know there is a better way to live. A better way to feel. To be happier. But how?

Life's journey can lead us through unexpected and challenging terrains, leaving scars that can be difficult to heal. If you're carrying the weight of past traumas, know that there's hope for healing, and I'm here to offer you a guiding hand on this path to recovery. The burden of unresolved trauma can impact every aspect of your life. If you're looking for healing from heavy relationships, past experiences, and wanting to feel confident in the decisions you're making - you can certainly achieve that.

Life can be complicated and seem challenging at times. Seeking help takes courage! Mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, post-traumatic stress and addiction can be difficult and overwhelming to face alone. Support and guidance are often needed for healing. Each person needs their own unique therapeutic experience, and I use a variety of evidence-based techniques tailored to meet those needs. If an area of your life is not serving you well, let’s talk.

Do you want to get at the root of your stress, triggers, anxiety, or depression? Do you want to learn how to be kind to yourself? Do you want you, or your kids, to be able to notice and cope with their emotions? I will help you investigate why that behavior is being triggered in you. I'll help you process the root of that behavior. You'll learn to notice your stress, anxiety, or depression in the moment and to be kind with yourself rather than judgemental. My previous clients have gotten rid of social anxiety, have improved their relationships, have developed new ways to cope, and are living more empowered lives!

You're not just looking for a professional; you want someone who gets you, a trusted guide on your unique journey. Clinical expertise alone won't do; you're after a compassionate, supportive partner to walk with you through life's twists and turns. The goal isn't just therapy; it's a warm, empathetic connection to help you find your way to a more fulfilling life. I tailor therapy to your specific needs, specializing in addressing various trauma types such as childhood trauma, relational wounds, codependency and more.
