I work with individuals navigating stress, life transitions, burnout, and questions of identity, purpose, and belonging. Many feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected — from themselves, others, or the world around them. I support those seeking a more grounded, connected way of moving through life, including people drawn to service, care, or environmental and community work. Together, we make space to explore what’s shifting and what matters most.

While not everyone experiences mental illness, everyone has mental health that must be maintained just like physical health.
People may think they aren’t “that bad” yet, but asking for help early and often is one of the best ways to maintain wholeness in mental health. Often people think seeing a therapist makes you weak or or means you’re broken, or in some cases that you don’t trust God. Too often people are used to holding it together on the outside while internally feeling exhausted, anxious, trouble sleeping, overthinking, or questioning themselves. If this is you it's time to take care of your mental health.

You’ve been everything for everyone. And somewhere along the way you lost yourself. But how did this happen? Maybe it was the day you swallowed your feelings to keep the peace. Or when you started saying “I’m fine” knowing you weren't. But now, you're here. Exhausted. Tired. Disconnected. Wondering how you got so far away from yourself and how to get back. You’ve been holding it all together for everyone else. You’ve mastered being the strong one, the dependable one. You look around at the life you’ve built and still feel disconnected from yourself. To wonder if anyone sees you beyond what you can give or do. You need to see YOU!

I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since April of 2000. Much of my work focuses on helping my clients find acceptance in themselves listen to their own voices and create a fulfilling life. I believe that each of my clients is an expert in their own lives.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
