Are you worried, stressed, depressed, feeling hopeless about life's situations or want to restore broken relationships? I can help! Life can bring on many challenges and stressors and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in providing mental health services, I am here for you.

I view counseling as a collaborative relationship between the client and the counselor. This collaborative relationship allows the client and therapist to work together to address issues the client is facing through the development of mutually agreed upon clinical and personal goals. During therapy, I focus on patterns of thoughts, behaviors, moods, and communication that may contribute to client distress. I often address these issues utilizing Person-Centered, Systems, Cogitative Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing (evidenced-based therapeutic practices).

Asking for help can be one of the most challenging things you will ever have to do. When you are at your most vulnerable you need an experienced professional to help!

I am excited to help you along your journey and eagerly await your call!

If you are reading this it is because something in your life could be better. The goal of therapy is for individuals to gain insight, explore their possibilities, and to change their world. If you are feeling significant distress or are seeking personal growth because you are not living at your full potential. I can assist you in improving your life.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, over worked or "stuck" right now? Are you tired of putting on a brave or happy façade? Is your relationship struggling? Life can be stressful and exhausting! Let me help you find balance and peace in a world full of chaos. I know that no single approach works for everyone; therefore, have been trained in a variety of treatment modalities including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Crisis, Suicide Prevention, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I offer convenient Teletherapy appointments to accommodate your already hectic schedule.

As a therapist with 20 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping individuals achieve a healthier state of mind. We provide telehealth sessions only, as telehealth has become an increasingly popular option for clients seeking counseling from the comfort of their own homes/offices. Embracing Life Counseling utilizes a holistic approach to treatment; addressing anxiety, depression, and stress management through evidence-based therapies which acknowledge the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. We believe true healing comes from addressing the root causes of mental health issues, rather than simply treating symptoms.

Your mental health is a vital key to living your life to your fullest potential. My approach to counseling incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Trauma Healing, Inner Child Work & others. I believe many of the problems we face in live are related to unhealthy thinking processes which affect the way we feel & interact with others. I also believe that it is through our struggles that we can learn, grow & find meaning & value in life. We will work together to find ways in which your thoughts/beliefs about yourself & others may be causing emotional distress in your life or your relationships.

Everyone, including me, goes through tough seasons! From feelings of fear & sadness to an overall dissatisfaction with life, we’ve all been there. Whether you're a young person trying to overcome social stressors or prepping to transition to or from college or the workforce, our care and coaching can help you achieve success from the inside-out. In addition, I can also help the entire family navigate through teen years, and strengthen family bond. Lastly, I can help to bring couples closer than ever before. Couples gain skills that garner success from the dating & pre-marital stages to the "empty-nest” stage.

Note: Journey to Restoration is accepting new clients for individual & group therapy........Life has a way of throwing us unexpected curve balls, knocking us down, causing unfamiliar emotions, anxiety, intra-personal & interpersonal conflict, & stress. Have you ever asked yourself, how will I balance all of this? Growing through life without a road map can be difficult. And just as your car requires monthly maintenance, so does your life.

I believe there is nothing wrong with seeking some help when the stressors of life are weighing you down. I here to help you learn how to distribute that weight and get your life and your emotions back in order.

Many of us have emotions and experiences which chip away at our confidence and the ability to make positive decisions. Those who want to understand those motivations and change them will reach for help. It's not a counselor's job to tell a client what to do. The goal is to help you understand how your experiences affect your emotional health and help you create coping skills to extinguish the negative behaviors which are holding you back. I offer online appointments with HIPAA compliant videoconferencing platforms to protect your privacy.
