I utilize aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed neurobiological perspectives, EMDR, interpersonal relationships, existentialism, and more, to help you reach your goals.
It is time for you start being the person you were meant to be. There may be many things that prevent you from getting where you want. However, you deserve to prioritize your own self-care and live your life to its true potential. Our relationships and our self-perceptions can easily become distorted. We must often take a step back to look forward to the next chapter to get the things we want in life.

I am trained in the following: "CBT" (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) - helps you to understand how your thoughts and feelings drive your behaviors; "TFCBT" (Trauma-Focused CBT) - focuses on how the trauma in your life has affected your present life experience; and "Hakomi Therapy"- a somatic psychotherapy designed as a self-discovery tool done in mindfulness.
Often times we find ourselves going through the motions in life and not feeling "alive". We can't seem to pinpoint what it is that’s creating that disconnect, but we know we want to feel better. I'd love to help you with a guided self-discovery, an understanding of exactly what those obstacles are, and how to move past them to help you live the life you've imagined!

Trauma turns your world on its head, not only through the event but the aftermath. Anger, grief, confusion- all of these responses may come out of children, teens, and even adults by lashing out, throwing tantrums, making impulsive decisions, losing focus, and withdrawing from friends and family. These big changes are hard to process and can cause not only your child but you and your family to struggle. You're tired of trauma stealing the family, the child, the life you had before. You need someone to walk with you through this, and I'd love to be that person.

My goal for the counseling relationship is that you, the client, and I, the counselor, will develop trust with one another, work as a team to define and explore present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and work toward those goals. While my counseling philosophies are informed by a biblical worldview, I will in no way pressure or require you to uphold my morals, values, or religious beliefs. As the client I respect your value/belief system and will ask that you inform how that is incorporated into counseling.

Relationships can be messy — whether it is you and a spouse, you and your children or just you and the world. Sometimes we do it well and other times we need a little guidance. We were never meant to figure out things all on our own. We all need others to help us by way of encouragement and direction.

The decision to come to counseling is special. Something inside of us longs for something more or maybe just a better understanding of ourselves and the confusing world that we live in. I am always honored when someone shares their deepest hurts and greatest fears and allows me to be a part of that.

I am glad you took the first step in reaching out and finding a therapist. I know life can be difficult, and going to therapy to talk about personal things that are affecting your life is very difficult. It is even worse when you feel alone, are a part of a small community, or have faced adversity in life. I am also aware that mental health struggles are not easy to manage alone. Sometimes, all you need is a safe, comfortable and nonjudgemental space to process life experience and express your struggles.

As life takes unexpected turns through loss, new opportunity, or unanticipated routes, there are inevitably mental, physical, and social consequences. My approach to counseling is to engage clients in a values-based and goal-oriented fashion to help them navigate these transitions depending on their individual experiences and worldview. I offer clinical, career, relational, and grief counseling. I also specialize in stress-relief techniques utilizing heart rate variability software that can be completed in as little as 4 sessions.

My aim as a therapist is to be a safe relationship where clients can process, heal, and formulate life goals. I believe that current and past experiences such as chronic stress and depression, frequent life transitions, emotional neglect, and more will have a significant impact on physical, emotional, and relational health.

Behavioral Issues Therapists
What happens in therapy for behavioral issues?
No matter the type of therapy, individuals form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is often therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Individuals learn to identify situations that are especially troublesome for them and acquire new patterns of thinking and behaving. In therapy for ADHD, one of the most common behavior issues for children, individuals learn how to improve frustration tolerance, control impulsivity, manage attentional focus, and gain skills of self-organisation.
What therapy types help with behavioral issues?
Many types of therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Perhaps best-known and most widely tested is cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT), in which individuals learn new behavioral strategies and curb reactivity to frustrating or distressing situations that trigger disruptive behaviour. Anger, anxiety, mood disorders, impulse control problems are commonly addressed in CBT. Family therapy or parent management training is often helpful to reduce parent-child conflict and behavioral difficulties at home.
How long does therapy last for behavioral issues?
Among popular approaches to treating behavioral concerns, CBT is considered a short-term therapy intended to be administered in 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Parent training in behavior management, often used when the underlying cause of behavior issues is ADHD in children under 12, usually occurs in weekly sessions for 8 to 16 weeks. When behavioral issues stem from persistent aggression or defiance, therapy may last for months, and usually targets both children and their parents.
How effective is therapy for behavior issues?
Studies show that therapy for behavior issues in children is highly effective and may prevent the development of antisocial behavior later in life. Family intervention—parent management training or family therapy, both of which involve parents and children together—is considered most effective, notably for children under age 12 who persistently engage in aggressive, defiant, rule-breaking or other disruptive behavior. Whether provided alone or in combination with medication, CBT is highly effective in helping people regulate their emotions, and for people with ADHD, it addresses impulsiveness, hyperactivity and attentional focus.
