I am licensed in Ohio, Nevada, and Arizona and hold additional certifications in treating anxiety and working with dementia.
I'm happy that you reached out for help, which takes courage and strength. My clients are often people who are doing their best to hold everything together but feel the weight of stress, anxiety, past experiences, or major life changes catching up with them. Many are high‑functioning on the outside yet overwhelmed on the inside. Others are navigating relationship challenges, grief, burnout, identity questions, or a sense that they’ve lost connection with themselves. I work with adults who want support that feels human, compassionate, and practical - not clinical or cold.

Cycles of Life Counseling has added teletherapy services. Protect and care for your mental health and well-being while you protect and care for your physical health. My treatment philosophy is that people want to feel good and live with purpose. Sometimes though, life can feel too big to manage. Sometimes we feel stuck or unable to adjust when "life happens", We may have not learned a better way to cope or live well with or through challenges. Add to that, frustration and disappointment over feeling this way and we feel even worse. Let's consider another way for you ‘to be’ in the world, to live more fully, with emotional freedom.

I am a short term, wellness oriented and goal focused therapist. A joyful and purpose driven life is what most of us strive for. Sometimes we are temporarily knocked off the track by an unexpected life event or ongoing life situation that appears to be hopeless or unsolvable. These roadblocks, however, can be overcome with will, good support and the right tools necessary to change our attitudes and life circumstances so that life works for us, not against us, once again. For anxiety and depression I incorporate meditation, tapping, vagus nerve stimulation and relaxation exercises into my sessions to help you regain control.

Testing is used to clarify diagnoses and guide treatment options for those struggling with ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, dementia, depression, or other issues.
Just as you visit physicians for preventive care, you can meet with a psychologist to address issues before they become problematic. This proactive approach encourages the development of psychological health. People are in good psychological health when they make good decisions, manage stress well, communicate effectively, have healthy relationships, and take good care of themselves emotionally and physically. Let me work with you to establish and maintain your optimal psychological health. We can do that through the use of therapy and/or psychological testing, as I specialize in both forms of treatment.
