I would love to talk with you about how we can work together! I will support you during sessions so that you better understand how you experience life, resulting in feeling more comfortable as you approach challenges. I work with adults, teens, and children. I have spent my career learning how to find the best approach that feels right for each person. For adults this often includes getting to know yourself better with increased compassion. For children, I support learning new ways to reduce childhood stressors and acting out behaviors, often through play. This results in positive feelings between parents and their children.

My clinical training and experiences thus far provide me with the unique capability to support a variety of people and populations; these include behavioral and emotional issues in children/preteens, parents, adults struggling with anxiety, unhealthy thinking patterns, relationship stressors, and communication barriers within relationships.
The world we live in is overwhelmingly unpredictable, which can lead us to not only numb our own emotions, but also hinders our capacity to communicate in healthier ways, build meaningful relationships, connect, be intentionally productive, or engage in much needed acts of self-care. Feeling the weight of one or more past traumatic or stressful experiences can easily cripple our ability to shift away from destructive behavior patterns. You may be feeling stuck– uncertain of who you are, what you want, and what you deserve, or maybe you’re caught in the spiral of believing that you don’t deserve more than what you have now.

As human beings we are wired for connection. Acknowledging past trauma, working through the pain and coming out on the other side are key steps to relational healing with others and ourselves.

I understand how chaotic and overwhelming life can be. I would love to walk alongside you as we begin to process the past, acknowledge the present and prepare for the future, helping you attract the relationships and life you want.

I also take a special interest in counsleing families of chronically ill children.
Perhaps the most difficult and courageous decision one must make in life is to ask for help during troubling times. I practice holistic reality-based therapy, teaching clients to become agents of their own change. I will assist in identifying goals, as well as barriers, and together we will collaborate to devise and implement a set of life skills and tools that will ultimately become the backbone of positive change for an individual or family. I believe that the client-therapist relationship is the single most important factor in successful therapy outcomes.

Mallory is married to his wife, Amy, and they have two teenage children.
Mallory believes that at any stage or age, all people have this in common: we have stories and are created for connection. While life can be amazing and beautiful, there is a deep awareness and experience of brokenness and pain — in ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. Mallory believes counseling is an opportunity to enter into your brokenness and to find meaning, redemption, and ultimately healing and wholeness. This therapeutic process requires courage, authenticity, and a willingness to be vulnerable.

Life is full of transitions, and it can be difficult to navigate life changes. Do you feel frustrated, alone, misunderstood, or sad due to family conflict, an unfulfilling romantic relationship, low self esteem, stress, or parenting your children? Relationships can be complicated, and it is disheartening to feel stuck in situations that cause anxiety, sadness, or stress. Tension can build even more if you have a child or teen who is struggling with their behavior or emotions. This can negatively affect school, work, or home life. It takes courage to reach out for professional help.
