At Evolve Psychotherapy, our compassionate therapists have a wide range of expertise, experience, and treatment options. We believe that people change by feeling motivated and by seeing the benefit of making a difficult change. We provide psychotherapy and education that offers motivational treatment to utilize strengths and help you decide what changes to make and how you will go about it. Using a solution-focused method of treatment, we see the work of a therapist as a collaborative partner in the process of change & healing. We believe in increasing mind-body awareness to assist in this process.

I believe that any person can make improvements in their life with nonjudgemental acceptance and guidance to increase coping skills, self-worth and a better understanding of themselves and what they are capable of.

My therapy style is flexible and client-centered. I believe that therapy is successful when the client-therapist relationship is strong and the treatment approach is tailored to meet the specific needs of the client. I have found that the ability to apply different theories and to take a holistic approach ensures the best possible therapeutic outcome.

Often times, life's waves produce times of emotional hardship marked by deep seated feelings of grief, sadness, confusion, depression, worry, and anxiety. Therapy is an opportunity to have the space, support, and safety to address the waves inherent in everyday life without judgment. If you are experiencing a life transition, a break-up, day-to-day parenting and relationship stress, or you are simply being haunted by past events or thoughts that don't seem to budge, therapy can provide an outlet to gain the insight, awareness, and relief you may be seeking.

I have 15 years experience working with individuals and families battling confusing effects of substance use. I provide an environment free of pressure or judgement for exploring how substance use impacts your life, as an individual or a family member. We will navigate through the unpredictable and difficult circumstances life can bring. This relationship provides support and self-knowledge as we learn how we can contribute to solutions and/or problems. Learning concrete education, skills and tools to handle people, places and situations will help to move forward in our lives, resulting in increased self-confidence and serenity.

I am a seasoned, licensed psychologist who specializes in the treatment of people experiencing life/career stress, chronic pain, substance abuse, anxiety and/or depression. I treat adults, couples and families.

We may encounter many challenges along our path. Challenges may include loss, chronic/terminal illness, trauma and mood disruption. At times, we can manage these challenges on our own. At other times, working with someone can be of benefit - perhaps even a necessity - allowing us to understand and move through the challenge; reconnect with ourselves and others and generally function better in the world. As a licensed psychotherapist and clinical social worker, I offer my knowledge, skill, curiosity and compassion in a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental environment to support you and/or family members in this process.

I provide a supportive therapeutic environment that is comfortable and non-judgmental. My clinical approach to therapy is a partnership that allows my clients to be interactive in their sessions. Together, we will discuss what your presenting concerns are and work on building skills that will help you cope with those issues. If you are unsure what your specific therapeutic goals are at this time and are looking for broader supports, we can also work together to gain a better understanding of yourself while building a toolbox of skills that will help you move forward on your journey.

Life can be difficult, at times we may feel out of control, overwhelmed, saddened or haunted by our past, or nervous about our future. These feelings can cause feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. I offer clients a safe and welcoming space to explore these feelings. Therapy can assist you in healing by resolving previous emotional conflicts, finding a new self perspective, and gaining new insight to gain relief from difficult emotions. I work with young and middle aged adults to navigate memories of childhood traumas/neglect that won't budge, relationship difficulties/break-ups, life transitions, and losses.
