Today may be one of the “Bad Days,” maybe even the worst yet. Lately, bad days are becoming more frequent. Racing thoughts, worry, anxiety, sadness, and lack of motivation seem to be taking over everything. You’re doing your best, but doing day to day tasks becomes a battle that is becoming harder to win. You’re always tired. Your brain never stops. Loved ones are concerned and maybe complain, which makes you feel worse. You shut down and either put on a show or avoid the people, tasks, and events that are important. The negative voice in your head is getting louder and louder and it says horrible and scary things to and about you.

I have extensive experience treating individuals with anxiety, depression and attachment issues. I am most passionate about advocating for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.

Making the decision to seek help is the first step to realizing that you have the power and choice to create the life you desire. Work can be stressful, school can be hard, raising children is challenging and relationships change. All these challenges can have an intense impact on your mood, thoughts and motivation to participate in daily activities. It is the passion of SSA Counseling to meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be, to find resolution regardless to what that may look like.

Many times you think to yourself, "I'm just not happy." The stresses of daily life are overwhelming. You don't recognize the person sleeping next to you, work seems hard at every turn, parenting is difficult and you are tired of being angry. Maybe this feeling has grown over time or has just started to surface. Either way, there's a distance between the person you are and the person you want to be. There is a distance between the relationships you have and want. You just want more. To feel happy again.

Are you feeling hopeless today? Do the stress and anxieties of life feel overwhelming? Is a life trauma or past hurt holding you back from living free?

At Brighter Brains we use a holistic approach to treat problems at the source ... the brain. When one experiences traumas, losses, or injury, it can lead to actual changes in brain signaling and connectivity that negatively affect our mood and daily functioning. Brain-body health is necessary for maintaining long-term mental stability, physical wellness, and spiritual contentment. Individualized protocols are customized for each client using state-of-the-art equipment and proven treatment methods to address problems directly and provide relief quickly. Our approach to mental health is non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical.

I am a clinical psychologist with a background in philosophy, who enjoys helping people untie the mental and emotional knots that have held them back. Much of my work involves properly identifying the problems-in-living with which my clients are struggling and eliciting their latent skills and creative resources to overcome those problems. That is, before one can properly get anywhere therapeutically, one must answer the question, “What makes the ‘problem’ a problem at this time, in this way, for this particular person?”

As a Keymaker, we know that there isn’t a skeleton key that fits every person. And because of that we work hard to design the support & programing that you, your youth & family needs. That means if you’re not seeing a perfect fit, don’t worry we can create it together & support it through fruition. A Keymaker support service provider’s job is to provide appropriate and individualized support to the client and their family members so that they can be successful. This goal may be accomplished through being your advocate, tutor, task completion monitor, brainstorm facilitator, motivator, mentor, or coach.

The hardest part of instigating change in our lives is taking that first step. Whatever has led you to this first step, I am confident that I can be of service and support as we work together towards the changes and goals that you are looking for in your life or the lives of your family. In a friendly, supportive, and professional atmosphere, and through the use of research-based interventions, we can find and apply the solutions that will lead to changes you are currently seeking.
