Whether you are working to navigate the difficult terrain of grief , facing a significant life transition, living with depression, anxiety, or looking to better understand your relationships, I will support you as we seek to find meaning in your experiences allowing for healing and growth. We all have feelings of discontentment from time to time but when these feelings are severe or prolonged and interfere with your daily life, your relationships, or your sense of well-being, it's time to reach out for help.

I named my business Life Journey Counseling because I believe that we are all on a journey. We typically have ideas about where we are headed and how we will get there, but life often deals us something different...something we didn't plan for. How we handle that is the key to our own personal growth. I am inspired by the power of people to help themselves, but also a firm believer in the importance of having support and help when we need it. I help people through the therapeutic relationship we form to realize their full potential.

People come to psychotherapy because they want to feel better. A big part of a therapist’s ability to help a person feel better lies in their taking a compassionate and loving stance toward that person. As a transpersonal, mindfulness-based and person-centered therapist, I strive to create a safe space to explore your inner world. I work with you on strengthening a mind-body connection to support a whole-person healing journey. By aligning to clients’ innate wisdom I assist clients in feeling heard, empowered and supported to work through their relational patterns, wounds and trauma.

I work in a general practice setting and have helped a wide variety of clients with a wide variety of issues. In addition, I volunteer as a Court Appointed Special Advocate for abused and neglected children and am certified as a Child and Family Investigator. Whether you are an individual, a couple, or a family needing assistance with problem issues, I would like to hear from you. Together we can find options to solve your problem issues and move you forward in your life.

Life is full of challenges. I believe these challenges can also be stepping stones to our own personal growth. Whether stress from a job, a relationship issue or perhaps experiencing depression or anxiety, everyone deserves to have a non-judgmental, safe place to be able to talk. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I strive to make my office a comfortable environment where those "hard conversations" can happen, resulting in a deeper understanding of what roles we play in relationships as well as how our thoughts impact how we feel and act.

WELCOME! I ENJOY WORKING WITH INDIVIDUALS who are motivated to learn about themselves and their relationships~to their partner, family, work, creative endeavors and/or physical health. CLIENTS report that they appreciate my humor, compassion and interactive style. TOGETHER, we explore how specific patterns may be at the root of emotional, interpersonal and/or physical challenges. TO BRIDGE THE GAP that often occurs between insight and transformative change, I draw from my background in the MEDICAL FIELD, as well as from NEURO("BRAIN")SCIENCE, MINDFULNESS PRACTICES and current research regarding the intricate RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH.

Do you get anxious and overwhelmed easily? Are you more emotional or feel things deeper than other people you know? Do you tend to notice things others don't? Are you highly intuitive? Have you always felt different or flawed? Do you startle easily or are sensitive to loud or annoying sounds? If you answered yes to many of these questions, you may have a normal trait known as a Sensory-Processing Sensitivity, aka Highly Sensitive People. I have this trait and am dedicated to helping others navigate their life in healthy ways. In addition to being a licensed therapist, I am a Certified Grief Counselor.

I work with individuals, couples and families who are seeking support during difficult experiences such as the death of a loved one, divorce, relationship changes and personal challenges. I believe that with the help of a professional most of us are able to heal from those difficult experiences.

I work with children, teens, and adults who might be experiencing overwhelming feelings and emotions, are stuck in disruptive patterns, or are feeling detached from the things that were once loved. Perhaps there has been a significant change, traumatic event or challenges at school that have made things feel different than the way they were. Sometimes you might not be sure what has changed but feel that something is just not right. Support can be helpful if you or your child are struggling with sleep concerns, physical aches and pains, behavioral changes, or an overall sense of worry or stress.

Sometimes we all need a little help as we navigate this thing called life. I am here to help. I specialize in grief , trauma, anxiety, depression, self esteem, and self-harm behaviors affecting, children (10+), teens, young adults, and adults. I also specialize in the oncology population with both the adult and pediatric age groups with over 15 years of experience. Lastly I am available to help parents with coaching in order to improve parent child relationships and help children thrive.

Are you experiencing anxiety to the point of having panic attacks, or feeling so down that getting out of bed in the morning takes enormous effort? Are you feeling alone and grieving, having recently lost a loved one, a pet, a job, or a relationship? Perhaps you are going through a confusing life transition and are looking for a new sense of purpose and direction. Whatever you are struggling with, you are not alone. There are times in everyone’s life when we need some extra support and guidance. I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or grief .

Our minds and hearts can be overwhelming places to explore alone. Perhaps you are feeling disconnected from yourself, wanting to improve your relationships, or wanting a better understanding of yourself and why you do the things you do. If so, I may be the therapist for you. I am passionately committed to working with individuals to assist them in living a more connected, authentic, and empowered life. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space to encourage curiosity and growth to support you in working towards your goals.

I am a licensed professional counselor with experience working with individuals, families and groups. I enjoy working with clients of all ages, but I have a special affinity for early adolescents and teenagers. My experiences as an educator serve as the foundation for working with these clients and their families. I use a client-centered approach and believe my clients are experts in their own lives. I view my role as therapist as a facilitator who assists clients in discovering their own truths and gaining a deeper sense of themselves.

Life can feel heavy sometimes, you seem to be plodding along just trying to get through it, or worse, waking up filled with dread at what the day ahead will bring. You struggle to find anything to get excited about or look forward to. It could be that something intangible has shifted and you have lost your sense of hope, optimism, and enthusiasm. Or perhaps a transitional event has occurred; you left a job, changed careers, retired, divorced, your kids grew up and moved away, you experienced the loss of someone close to you, received a life altering medical diagnosis, or a caregiving role has consumed your life.

As a psychotherapist, I partner with individuals who are wanting to work with/on their relationships, family dynamics, trauma (past or present), grief , identity, anxiety, and/or depression. One of my primary specialties is with adults who grew up in a dysfunctional household, working to resolve how those experiences are manifesting negatively in the present. Additionally, I specialize in relationship issues and grief . I work with people who are highly motivated to engage in their own healing process in order to grow, change, and cultivate possibilities.
