As your counselor, my goal is to provide professional care that inspires real-life changes for your mental health and wellbeing. I create an open and safe space to best support the vulnerability and strength that comes with sharing your story. My foundation of trauma-informed care allows me to recognize the effects of trauma in your life and provide a healing path to recovery. I incorporate techniques of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build skills of mindfulness and emotional regulation. Together, we can understand the influences of your past and plan for a positive future in all aspects of your life.

Life's challenges can feel dark, heavy, or even impossible to deal with. Most people who start therapy feel stuck repeating the same painful patterns. Do any of the following resonate with you? You fight all the time with your partner. Your energy levels are at an all time low. You feel dread, fear, strange thoughts, and a pounding heart. You wake up every morning feeling overwhelmed and depressed. It is possible to feel better. Imagine a life where you could...Control how you respond to anxious thoughts. Get to the root of problems and solve them instead of using band-aids. Have the loving relationships you've always wanted.

Together we will work from a place of empowerment, learning and discovery to strengthen some of the positive skills and resources you already have, while adding more tools that will equip you to pursue greater mental health.

There has to be more to Mental Care than crisis management, disorders, illnesses, or diagnosis labeling. We are proactive in the maintenance of our bodies, yet, we neglect the "main computer" the mind, the psyche, the CORE of us. We, at CORE, believe in working hard - Mental Health Boot Camp - if you get the drift. Compassion is abundant at CORE but not in the form of soft talk. You are doing hard work and we take it serious. As a team we will discover those aspects of "self" that make us all so amazing. We will walk together sharing life's stories and how they do or do not define who you are at our CORE.

Addressing life difficulties can be overwhelming, stressful and isolating. It takes a lot of courage to overcome your obstacles, but doing it alone may not be enough. Pursing psychotherapy is the first step to elicit change in your life. My goal is to provide an empathic, safe, and understanding environment to help clients work through their difficulties together. The goal is to figure out what rings true to you, that has not always been evident. By working together, we can help you find greater joy, freedom and satisfaction in life.

If you have found yourself in the midst of feeling lost, anxious, depressed, grieving a loss or just needing to talk to someone, please call me and make an appointment today. I believe one of the purposes in my life is to sit with those suffering through their humanity and to let them know they’re not alone but a part of a larger self. I believe grace meets us where we are but doesn’t leave us there. I want my clients to be able to embrace and learn from their weak days to help them get stronger and transform into the best versions of themselves. “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” -Carl Jung

Sometimes, you feel so overwhelmed you wish someone else could step in and live life for you for a while. You're juggling too much and you're worried that if things don't change for you soon, you will hit a breaking point and everything will fall apart around you. The coping skills that have worked for you in the past have stopped working, and now you're wondering if they ever worked that well in the first place. You hope therapy can answer your questions and help you cope. If part of this process for you has been wondering if your anxiety is related to trauma you've experienced in your past, then you have landed in the right place.

Relationships evoke our deepest longings and fears, and touch on wounds that may have been long hidden, wounds which we’ve often lived a lifetime without recognizing. The pain of disconnection we feel in relationships, the heated arguments and periods of distance or alienation, can leave us lost and confused, stuck in emotional knots, with our desire for closeness vying against our protective reactions. Cycles of conflict may escalate, and with them, the pain. All the while, deep down, we quietly long to share ourselves more honestly and fully with those whom we are closest to.

Most of my clients live in fear around how much food they eat or do not eat. Their relationship with food has evolved into one of pain and hiding versus pleasure and health. I use a Gestalt approach which gives voice to a person's conflicting two parts: the part wanting to hold onto the eating disorder and its benefits, and the part wanting to let go for permanent growth and healing. Clients ultimately can reach a place where they discover choice, freedom and inner peace.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point.

Hi, thanks for your interest in looking for a counselor. I hope you find someone who will support and encourage you to be the best possible offering of yourself in this life. Maybe that person is me. If so, I'd like to share that my approach is truly about growth and healing. Growing into our fullest potential and healing (acknowledging and letting go of) parts of the past that hold us back from that. In my humble opinion, this work is most essential in living a life of authentic Joy, Peace, Love, and Connection.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
