"Is your marriage headed for divorce? Are you tired of constantly fighting and feeling misunderstood? Have you been holding onto past hurts and pain? Are you dissatisfied with your sex life? Many couples long to experience deep intimacy with their partner, but do not see it as possible. Instead, they settle for cold, conflicted, loveless marriages and often stay just for the kids."

"I believe anyone can be overwhelmed by a recent situation, a long standing issue, feel drained, and loose perspective. Once in this situation, the ability to make good decisions is affected. My counseling environment is safe, supportive, and non-judgmental. This provides room for and encourages personal growth and time to gain a better perspective. Counseling empowers a person to deal more effectively with life situations. The counselor-client relationship is essential to enhance and promote well being in the client."

"My practice centers around teaching people principles on how to access their own innate psychological health, and how to utilize this understanding for their own well-being. This can include a healthier concept of self, a more productive way of viewing difficulties and overcoming challenges in life, and how to establish more meaningful relationships. I help client's suffering from depression, anxiety, attention issues, addictions, emotional regulatory disorders and relational conflict learn skills such as CBT, DBT, 3 principles training, and mindfulness to help better their lives. Teaching new skills is an integral part of my practice."

"Psychotherapy is the practice of talking things through with a skilled and trusted professional. Conversation lays out a frame of reference for solving problems in one's personal life and eases emotional pain. For anyone who seeks therapy, there is a desire to improve communication, to be better understood and connect with others. Finding the courage to change the way to communicate more effectively can be difficult. Unavoidably, there are times when we lose our way, have misunderstandings, or struggle with doubts about our own capabilities. An experienced therapist can help us find solutions to problems and relief from pain in a nonjudgmental atmosphere."

"I work with people who have experienced trauma - this can mean anything from trauma that comes from difficult relationships, to PTSD, war, sexual abuse, accidents, surgeries, and less-than-ideal childhoods.

With pre-marital couples, my focus is on fostering closeness in order to build more security and enjoyment together. I also have expertise in helping couples with infidelity issues."

"Has the weight of the world become too heavy? We are not meant to carry it alone. I became a therapist to help others navigate the transitions, challenges, and torrential storms of their lives, just as I learned to do in my own life. The client-therapist relationship is sacred. I pride myself on the strong connection of trust and compassion I have with my clients, so that our work is meaningful and successful. I hope you look forward to sessions and enjoy having a nonjudgmental outlet to call your own."

"Hello & welcome! We all have our reasons for seeing help at various seasons in life. I really like the saying "It's ok to not be ok"! I know that can become cliche, but it's one of the things we often have trouble believing and accepting. Maybe you are just seeking some guidance or a new perspective. Or perhaps you are in a really challenging situation and not sure of your next step. Whatever it is that brings you to this time of seeking help, it takes courage to reach out and ask for help. Discovering new ways of addressing one's situation can be both enlightening and empowering. I would be honored to assist in that process."

"I provide individual and family therapy services in a supportive, authentic and normalizing environment. I work to help others feel empowered as they work toward their goals and recognize how much they are able to shape their own lives when provided with effective tools and insight. I believe that the appropriate use of humor is extremely helpful and I strongly believe that it is not my place to judge you or to impose my values on you during the therapeutic process. I view counseling as a team effort where the counselor and client work together."

"Whether it's life challenges, obstacles or transitions that are prompting you to seek counseling, today you are one step closer to your personal journey of growth and healing. Fear of change is natural, but can prevent us from letting go of old beliefs, behaviors, ways of being and situations that are no longer beneficial to our wellbeing."

"Experiencing anxiety, emotional pain, feeling stuck, or feeling directionless at times are all very normal human experiences. Creating a warm and trusting environment where you can feel safe, listened to, and understood is vital for me to understand how you experience your pain in your own unique way. For over ten years I have used this style of treatment to flexibly and creatively tailor components from multiple evidence-based practices, including those that are cognitive- and acceptance-based, to create a therapeutic experience that best fits each individual and their own unique needs."

"^^^ NOT accepting new clients at this time ^^^ If you've ever been told you're 'too nice' or 'bossy' then we'll probably work well together. I have a knack for helping people whose childhood caregiver was overbearing and/or struggled with substances or mood disorders making them emotionally unavailable, resulting in your too nice or bossy style. You may thus attract mates who have a similar style of relating with you and so security is elusive in your relationships. I'm well versed in the grief and recovery process that follows 'break-ups' in love and work that result when you cannot be yourself."

"Overcoming anxiety on your own can be challenging. You don't have to be alone with your feelings. I can help. Life is hard at times - pain, disappointment, and loss are inevitable. Our past can be impacting our personal and professional lives. Each stage of our lives presents us with new challenges & opportunities for growth and expansion. In a supportive environment, my clients feel comfortable exploring themselves, to feel connected and understood. This allows my clients to unburden themselves of the things they have been carrying around, to learn more about themselves, imagine a better life, and try out new ways of being & doing."

"Depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life stress, trauma--all can be overwhelming and hard to sort through on your own. As an experienced licensed psychologist, I can help you address these problems effectively. Using mindfulness and other evidence-based therapy approaches, I'll help you regain control and satisfaction in your life. In therapy we will collaborate in a supportive and caring way to identify your goals, develop an effective treatment plan, and move you to that better, more joyful place in life."
