Transform your relationship with life! Reduce stress. Release old patterns. As a licensed psychologist and registered yoga teacher, I help clients with the difficult emotional housecleaning needed to build more vibrant, satisfying, authentic lives. I cultivate collaborative relationships with clients and utilize a wide range of interventions including mindfulness, brainspotting, guided imagery, cognitive behavioral therapy, and grounding techniques to address the emotional, relational and physical challenges in clients' lives. Areas of expertise include stress management, work-life balance, burnout recovery, women's issues, grief and loss, transitions, trauma, health challenges, yoga for cancer survivors, and supervision of therapists in training.

I am passionate about people and the diversity inherent in being human. I believe that our connections and collaborations with others can be a tremendous asset to healing. I integrate a Body-Centered approach to my work in trauma, individual processing, and relationships, which supports me to help others in embracing new possibilities. In witnessing the barriers and potential in you, I facilitate a movement towards being the person that you would like to be. I have expertise in working with Attachment, Developmental Trauma and PTSD, EMDR, Diversity Issues, Depression, Relational Challenges, and Personal Development.

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 have a difficult time asserting your needs at work or in your relationship? 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 specialize in couples counseling and men’s issues. FOR COUPLES, I help you use existing strengths in a process of Calming, Listening, Recommitting and Problem-Solving. This work exposes deep wounds beneath the conflict. Healing those wounds is the victory you need. FOR MEN, whether your struggle is relational, depression, anxiety, substance use or another, we can interrupt the repeating cycle with new habits, thoughts, behaviors, faith and\or relationships. I have been married 35 years, with 4 grown children. I have had 3 careers including USAF pilot, software development and now therapist and chaplain. I believe I can help you.

I admire people who consider going to counseling. It can be a difficult decision, and often, it is made during a vulnerable time in one's life or relationship. Then it is even more challenging to find a good therapist who will meet your needs. While I am an excellent therapist, I may not be right for everyone. It is a priority for me to help you find the therapist that is right for you, therefore I provide referrals to other qualified therapists, should I not meet your needs.

Are you seeking to change relationship, behavioral, or emotional dynamics that cause distress? Are you tired of feeling anxious, irritable, or down? Maybe you had a past traumatic event that is still affecting you. Regardless, you are ready to work through difficult feelings, thoughts, and or memories to gain insight into how they drive you and transform this insight into stronger relationships, better behavior choices, and regulated emotions.

Exhausted with your life and wondering how you got here? Confused about your career direction, relationships or making sense of your experiences? Have anxiety, drugs and alcohol or shadows of past trauma become too familiar? Having someone to help you sort through the pieces and re-orient to your own life and values is crucial. Getting to a place of clarity, aliveness and self-awareness is possible and so worth it.

I have been providing support to children, adults and families during times of stress, transition and crisis for over 30 years. Areas of specialization include trauma resolution, life transitions and grief. My approach is both compassionate and practical. Supporting healthy attachment in relationship and supporting the inner changes that occur when one steps onto a spiritual path are of particular interest as well. Moving from worn out habits driving behavior to genuine expression and presence.

I have been working with people from all walks of life for years. My expertise lies in issues stemming from mental illness and/or substance use issues. I also provide support to those going through difficult situations such as divorce (including difficult divorces/custody issues), relationship issues, job issues, or family issues. My goal is to work with people to help them achieve their best life.

Challenges are a part of life. How we meet those challenges - whether they are our partner relationships, parenting, work, or transitional - determines our contentment with ourselves and our interaction with people in our life. If you are interested in learning more effective skills to assist you in meeting life's challenges, i am excited to facilitate your journey. The journey may be difficult but is always worth the effort. We will utilize your skills, look at your goals, and together develop a plan for success.

Do you often find yourself wondering, "What's wrong with me?” or “Why do I keep doing this to myself?" As your therapist, I flip these questions on their head and instead ask, “What happened to you?" Specializing in trauma, addiction and EMDR therapy, I work with people to help them better understand the experiences that have shaped their present difficulties. Trauma is any adverse, negative experience or event. Anxiety, depression & addiction are common signs of trauma. I provide a safe and supportive space to help people make sense of what has happened, understand how it affects them presently, and to feel hopeful for the future.

My purpose in life is to help people develop healthy, meaningful and close relationships, and feel more at ease with who they are. I have 27 years of experience as a psychotherapist. I embrace the philosophy that relationships are an essential aspect of your emotional well-being. My approach to develop constructive change, is to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns, so you can understand your path to happiness. My greatest joy is witnessing my clients growth through gaining insight and awareness into their true selves, and having deeper connections in their relationships.

I empower people to make changes in their lives. I help clients navigate life transitions, resolve relationship issues with family, co-workers and friends and manage emotional difficulties such as anxiety and depression. Helping individuals and families address ADD/ADHD challenges and issues is another area of expertise. We work together to discover the client's strengths and resources, sources of support and identify obstacles to change. I help people increase motivation so they can take action to achieve the life they want rather than the life they wish they had.

As a licensed MFT and a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT) trained in Trauma Resilience (TRM), I am absolutely passionate about helping those impacted by sexual integrity issues. I work with addicts and their partners using individual, couple, and group therapy modalities. I am quite aware of relational trauma that partners of sex, porn, and relationship addicts experience, and I compassionately work to guide addicts through isolating and shame-filled experiences. My role is to help reduce this shame and systematically get to the root of the addictive and compulsive behaviors that have led to intimacy disorder issues.

Everyone experiences difficulties in their life. Some difficulties are transient. Sometimes, however, there are situations, difficult emotions, or relationship dynamics that won't resolve on their own or are so overwhelming that they become dangerous for you or others around you. This is when getting outside help from a compassionate, knowledgeable, and skilled professional who has experience working with these issues can be so beneficial. This is where I come in.

Welcome! I am a licensed therapist who specializes in working with depression, anxiety and life transitions. In therapy, am grateful to support my clients through some of the most challenging times in their lives. I strive to form therapeutic relationships that are supportive, healing and transformative. I provide practical tools to help my clients navigate difficult situations in education, career, relationships and parenthood. Together we will establish goals for therapy and work together with practical tools and supports.
