I mostly employ insight-oriented approach to psychotherapy. I believe, SELF-ACCEPTANCE is the first step in the path of happiness, I will help you accept yourself and experience making right choices. I use the power of now and mindfulness to help you tend to your emotions, thoughts, and sensations that occur in the present moment. I believe nothing is perfect, and relationships are complex. I will welcome the opportunity to work with you in understanding and improving your life.

I am passionate about working with diverse groups of people who suffer from trauma, whether from death, sexual or physical abuse, health complications, life stressors, or other complex matters; and have over 20 years of combined educational and practical experience doing so. With the understanding that life does not come with a “how to” guide, my goal as a therapist is to help you navigate the challenges of life which presents us with difficulties that may seem insurmountable. While you may not fully understand which direction may be the best route, sometimes talking things through can make all the difference.

I am a seasoned, wellrounded individual who shares empathy and compassion for all clients. My cultural competence is stellar as well as my ability to communicate with active and concerned listening skills. My primary goal is to aid and assist my clients to become resilient and successful while learning how to navigate through their challenges.

"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself as I am then I can change." - Dr. Carl Rogers. We emphasize to every person who comes through our door that they are the experts in their care. We provide the space and proper conditions to help this person live their life to their fullest potential.

You want to live the life you imagined for yourself; however, you find that self-criticism, painful past experiences, & negative feedback from others are taking up most of the space in your head. Your mental & physical energy are drained, leaving you feeling stuck and unmotivated. Your joy & hope are held captive & you find yourself in survival mode doing just what it takes to get through the day. You look at others & long for the success, confidence, & meaningful relationships that they seem to have mastered. You've tried many things (maybe even other therapists) & haven't achieved lasting change.

I work from a Christian perspective, helping people heal from broken relationships and symptoms resulting from emotional wounds (depression, anxiety, anger, addiction, etc.). I integrate faith with psychological techniques. My clients are not exclusively Christian, and for those not interested in integrating faith, I respectfully only focus on clinical issues.

I have a passion for wholeness and feel honored to walk alongside those who want to grow and those who just feel stuck - whether it's grieving a loss, the immobility of anxiety or depression, coping with life transitions, or working through the heartache of a troubled relationship. I work with men and women, young adults through older adults, and couples. I facilitate groups, and EMDR for trauma. I value spiritual growth and health and can include a spiritual focus.

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.... Rumi. "Are you experiencing sadness, anxiety/fear, or chronic unhappiness"? "Feeling unloved or unvalued in your relationships"? I believe that our wounds, our suffering & challenges can be a profound catalyst for awakening, for learning to love more deeply and for healing & transformation. And it will be my privilege to assist you in your healing journey...to alleviate suffering, awaken the heart towards self-compassion/loving-kindness and shape the brain towards greater joy & happiness!

Have you been telling yourself that you want to make changes and improvements to your self care, but been putting it off? It is easy to get in the habit of prioritizing other people's needs and wants ahead of your own. It can be a relief to find a nonjudgmental and approachable counselor to discuss your situation with.

Maybe your family was less than healthy growing up and you wonder how that’s impacting you today? Did you feel ignored back then? If you felt pressure to conform to others’ expectations and hide how you felt - you're not alone. Over time that experience can leave you numb, confused and angry. If you haven't been taught how to manage doubt and insecurity, they creep and leave you anxious, resentful, and depressed. You want to express yourself and hold healthy boundaries in your relationships, but don't know how to. I will help teach you to accept yourself, hold boundaries and stop beating yourself up.

Therapy offers a space for individuals to explore their past, present and future self. Your story matters. The more we try to hide, keep quiet or ignore our journey the harder it seems to find out what truly matters to us. Therapy can often be the last resort for many individuals and families suffering. I'd love for it to be the first option to a path of fulfillment. I still remember my first therapy session, the relief I felt when the therapist normalized my experience. It felt as if a weight had been lifted. A weight I carried for too long. I'd love to be the person who can offer relief and support to you and your loved ones.

Are you experiencing anxiety, grief, sadness, anger, trauma, or stress from daily life?

As a therapist I've provided treatment services in a variety of settings residential, behavioral/mental health, elementary/ high schools grades K-12th, and private practice. In each settings I've found the most common reason for a client not seeking help earlier, fear of being judged. I'm here to actively listen, offer coping skills and techniques to help you better understand problems and solve them.

Welcome! It takes courage to seek support and I commend you for taking the first steps toward healing. In life there may be issues and traumas that affect the way we view ourselves, view and interact with the world, and engage in relationships. There are times when our past or current challenges cause us to feel any number of emotions or feelings and these may have brought you to the place of desiring healing and wholeness or what I like to call, A New Day. I would encourage you to have hope, healing is possible and it would be an honor and privilege to walk with you on your healing journey.
