From this perspective, I specialize in life transitions (including divorce and other losses), relationship and identity concerns,
women
's issues, as well as stress management with individual clients (no couples).
I believe that "mental wellness" is a holistic perspective that includes mind, body, and spirit, when a person can feel satisfaction and enjoy life regardless of their current situation. Through psychotherapy I support the process of exploration, growth, and change so that a person can use their strengths and resources to challenge life situations or challenges. I draw from multiple theoretical orientations and view therapy as a collaboration where the client is actively engaged in the process in healing and becoming whole. I believe that internal change engenders external change.

Are you ready to go on a journey of self-discovery and unlock the thoughts that limit you? Come as you are! I provide a supportive, non-judgemental, direct, lighthearted, and often times witty, approach to therapy. My therapeutic approach involves deconstructing personal narratives, exploring the meanings of past events, observing patterns of thoughts and behaviors, and inspiring clients to integrate into the role of not only the author; but the editor of ones own life. The next chapter of life has yet to be written! Allow me to support you as you write your next chapter!

I understand the difficulties and challenges that personal growth and healing may bring. My goal is to provide a space where clients feel welcome, safe, seen, and heard. I am dedicated to providing an all-inclusive, safe space for clients to explore and express themselves freely. Through a collaborative effort between client and counselor, I explore difficulties and struggles in one’s life through the character structure lens of attachment, separation, integration, and adulthood. I strive to help clients gain the necessary tools toward greater self-awareness, understanding, and overall healing.

My desire is to help people live to their fullest potential. To live an abundant life, both personally and relationally, one must be willing to face the hard and intimate things we often protect. I have learned firsthand that if things are not discussed openly, much damage can be done internally. I work to provide a safe, sacred space to explore and work through life’s sore spots and find ways to cultivate healing and transformation. I have a heart for healthy, authentic family communication, grief work, life transitions, sexuality, body image, sexual intimacy issues, and individuals in later adulthood.

Healing is messy, and it’s also beautiful! You may feel stuck in a cycle that’s painful and no longer serves you, or you have a desire to look further inward. No matter the reason that brought you, I am glad you are here. It is 100% okay to ask for help, no matter what people have told you. Challenges are inevitable in life and are often a cue to action. When challenges go unresolved or unaddressed, they may get in the way of how you feel about yourself. The good news is there are many things you can learn and unlearn about yourself and the world you live in. I will support you through that learning and healing process.

I am passionate about supporting clients in overcoming trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and life changes. I use a strength-based, non-judgmental, and trauma-informed approach to counseling. Many of my clients come to me wanting change because they are tired of feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, and stuck. Some of my clients have done counseling before, but it didn’t go deep enough to understand and explore how patterns and experiences from their past are showing up in their life now. I will work with you to determine the root cause of your struggles and use evidence-based approaches to support healing.

Are you feeling alone and like the last priority in your relationship? Do you feel like you and your significant other keep having the same fight over and over again - so much so that you could literally predict word-for-word how your argument would go? Maybe you try to talk with your partner about the issues you both have been having in your relationship because you just want to fix it and can't stand another second longer feeling like you are just roommates, but those conversations go nowhere and usually end with one of you going silent or walking away?

Taking this first big step and going to therapy can seem impossible but as someone who has been in your shoes, I encourage you to find the courage to show up for yourself. You will learn a lot about yourself in therapy but more importantly, you will unlearn so much more. My goal is to create a safe space where you can process your thoughts and feelings and understand the purpose of your behaviors. I work with my clients to identify and unlearn self-limiting core beliefs such as feelings of not being good enough, fear of failure, and perfectionism. I hope you decide to take this leap and choose you because if not you, then who?

My particular areas of strength are treating anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, eating disorders,
women
's issues, body image & self-image struggles, and relationship/family problems.
I've been in the business for over 17 years and have a passion for providing competent counseling services within a Biblical framework. While I have a desire to integrate theories/strategies of psychology with Christian faith, I allow the client to determine what concentration of faith, if any, they prefer in the session. I would enjoy the chance to sit down and hear your story and offer feedback, wisdom & practical skills. I have a light-hearted & laid-back personality & enjoy supporting teenagers (11+), adults, families & couples through challenging times. Facing life's difficulties need not feel so burdensome or be braved alone.

People come to me from all walks of life, all seeking something different for themselves. I specialize in helping people working through life transitions. This includes people experiencing faith transitions or healing from religious/spiritual trauma or transitioning away from a high-control group, those transitioning to a new family structure, people entering a new season of life, those coping with a diagnosis or illness, and those navigating new relationships or exploring existing relationships in new ways. As life changes, we change with it. I help my clients explore and navigate this messy, confusing, exhilarating process.

Life is often challenging and overwhelming. To help navigate life’s challenges and guide you through the healing process, I provide therapy in an accepting and compassionate environment. Finding the right therapist to meet your needs is important. If you are dealing with anxiety and stress, learning new coping skills to overcome and manage these feelings is vital. Although my therapy practice is always individualized, we will likely practice mindfulness meditation and deep breathing exercises to help enable you to deal with these feelings when they arise.
