“We find ourselves, time and time again in a thousand disguises on the path of life.”- Carl Jung. That path can be full of joy and dread, but it’s worth it. The challenge may be finding the inner strength and resolve to take the first step and find your own way through the dark night. Whether you're fighting dragons, depression, or anxiety, taking that first step is essential. That’s where I can help.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, my goal is to help people become the best version of themselves. No matter your past, I believe with the appropriate information, training and teaching your life can improve. I desire to help people experience transformation and restoration that will last. I have experience working with children, individuals and couples. I subscribe to a family systems approach when working with children and have found it is most beneficial to include parents and siblings in treatment. I also have a passion to help people who have experienced trauma and am trained in EMDR.

Do often find yourself wondering what you can do to feel better? Do you feel sad or feel that you have no energy or oomph? Do you want a break from the stress? Maybe you are worried about your child and not sure how to help them. You may wonder if you will ever find answers to your problems. It seems like you’ve tried everything but nothing works, at least not for very long. Maybe you've even tried therapy before, but it's only helped temporarily. It can be scary to reach out to a therapist because you want to make sure it’s someone who you can really connect with and also someone who will keep you in the loop.

Are you interested in being the best version of yourself? Allow me to come along in your journey. Our work together will involve understanding why you engage in certain behaviors, learning coping skills, and discovering the courage you never knew you had. You will be able to gain confidence and develop more meaningful relationships. This will allow you to achieve the life you thought was possible but didn't know how to achieve.

Our mission is to provide quality online mental health and substance abuse services while breaking down the barriers of traditional, office based therapy. Traditional mental health and substance abuse treatment tends to focus on what makes you sick, what you are lacking but at The Mindful Lemon, our clinicians let you sit in the driver’s seat, focusing on your strengths and assets to help you become the best version of you! This can be via traditional talk therapy, medication management, mindfulness techniques, an emphasis on health, wellness and fitness or any combination of the above.

If you’ve landed here, you are no doubt considering making some changes in your life and I'm glad to see that you are exploring your options for feeling better. People I work with typically feel worried, sad, overwhelmed or stressed, or are coping with grief--before, during, or after--an important loss. Feeling stuck in old ways of thinking or behaving, having problematic relationships, or just plain feeling uncomfortable with the status quo and desiring to improve one's quality of life are also common themes that bring people to my office.

If you struggle with chronic issues and have tried other therapists and are still struggling, I may be the therapist for you. Many chronic conditions are coming from significant early trauma that is difficult to access because the memory is not stored verbally in the brain. I am a specialist in accessing early trauma and clearing it through the use of brain-based therapies such as EMDR and Brainspotting. I am certified in Brainspotting and Systemic Family Constellations and trained in EMDR I/II. I combine these three methods plus my natural empathic abilities to access blockages and clear them. You will feel immediately better!
