"I am an existential-humanistic practitioner who will provide an empathetic, non-judgemental, and confidential environment where you can be fully heard and understood. I am not interested in identifying symptoms to label human beings in order to meet the needs of insurance companies. I am interested in meeting the needs of individuals, families, and couples by utilizing a mind, body, and spirit approach with the intent of addressing the root causes of pain and discomfort. This approach will pave the way toward happiness and give the spirit fertile ground in which to flourish."

"Sometimes life is messy; it can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate on your own. That's why I do what I do! In a caring and compassionate way, I help you identify and overcome barriers to your happiness and well-being. Working together, we can explore effective ways to manage the complexities of life and develop coping strategies to better enable you to "enjoy the journey.""

"**At this time, I am not accepting new clients** Like the Hokey Pokey, change is essential in order to "turn ourselves around". But finding a therapist that clicks can be as problematic as finding the right shoe (it has to be the right fit- and believe me, not every therapist is a perfect fit!) When it comes to any type of change, even therapeutic, the greatest factor is the relationship between therapist and the client. My practice is honest, genuine while being direct. I try to create a comfortable and caring atmosphere. I work with individuals, couples, and families to create new perspectives and insights to reach optimal results"

"Therapy can help when life becomes overwhelming, when we are experiencing stressful transitions, when we are stuck and unable to move through hurts or injuries in relationships which once brought us love and security. If we feel sadness, fear, depression or anxiety which are preventing us from living the life we want or when unforeseen trauma, divorce, or family conflict adversely affect our children, therapy can help find ways to resolve the barriers to achieve a healthier outcome. My approach is gentle, empathetic but direct. I work with clients at their pace to discover the best outcome for themselves."

"Sometimes we feel stuck, unsure how to move forward, live in joyous and satisfying ways. Trauma has a way of making us feel stuck in the past, alone, and unable to see the future free from the grips of the imprinted negativity the traumatic events left on our lives. These problems often lead to other issues: chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety, etc. My goal is to help you become unstuck, and release the negative emotions that have become built up around these issues, identify existing problems, and learn the tools needed to help you cope."

"While a person can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe emotional distress, the relief is only temporary.

You have taken a significant first step towards facing your difficulties constructively and confidently; freeing you to enjoy all the good things life has to offer. Let's talk!!! "

"Parenting can be challenging and it's typical to feel frustrated with your child or adolescent. A parent's needs often come last leaving them overwhelmed and feeling spread thin. Allow me to help you navigate parenting in this ever changing world. Perhaps you need new strategies to reach your adolescent or tools for successfully blending two families. After 14 years of experience as a special education teacher in Clark County School District I easily build rapport with children and this connection provides me the opportunity to create positive change. I look forward to working with you and your family! "

"Connection can be one of the most transforming experiences in your life. Counseling is a process that can offer a therapeutic connection to enable you make transformations in your relationships, find healing from trauma, and find relief from depression and anxiety; just to name a few. I have made that kind of connection with many clients who have begun that transforming experience one step at a time. Once you take that first step, you can begin a ripple of change towards success in many areas of your life."

"Is your child or adolescent having difficulties with their behavior at home or school, experiencing changes in mood, or struggling with their relationships? Does your child have a developmental disorder or intellectual disability and need help navigating social situations or life transitions?"

"COUPLES: You love each other but your communication is often hurtful. PARENTS: You love your children but everything is a power struggle. INDIVIDUALS: You feel worse than you should and don't know how to help yourself. Therapy offers relief, hope, and a path forward when life challenges arise. I have received specialized training in couple's therapy, parent coaching (all ages), and Depression/Anxiety. You want improved relationships and personal growth - and my 15+ years experience is a powerful force in getting you there!"

"***NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. EVENING AND WEEKEND APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE***I believe that therapy is a personal journey. I believe that our struggles come from normal reactions to abnormal life circumstances. If you want to reach a place in your life where relating to others is filled with joy rather than anguish we can work together in achieving your goals. In addition I work with a focus on Perinatal Mental Health. A lot of people affected by pregnancy, pregnancy loss and childbirth may feel overwhelmed and overlooked. I am here to help guide you through the emotional journey. "

"Seeking therapy can intimidating, but tackling the stress that our home lives brings us alone is a difficult task. I understand that therapy is a unique and occasionally awkward experience so I want to tackle this process with my clients with honesty and humor. If you are struggling with anxiety, negative self image, or a difficult family or relationship and need a space to build confidence and strength then I would be happy to work with you. I love working with clients to help them build a deeper understanding and love for themselves and invite everyone in my office to be their most genuine self."
