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.

Healing happens through movement of your body, opening of your heart, training of your mind, and alignment with your soul! By learning and practicing Expressive Arts Therapy practices, you may cultivate more joy and peace in your life.

I feel a person's history, current life situation, and steps they are taking towards the future are all part of the therapeutic process. Often times, just talking with someone and hearing ourselves speak out loud what has been in our private thoughts helps to initially ease some of that burden. In addition to offering a non-judgmental space for you to process your concerns, I will collaborate with you on strategies for better managing what feels challenging for you right now.

Everyone has seasons in life where they are struggling and need help. I provide a supportive and nonjudgemental space to receive support and healing for anxiety, depression, life changes (such as divorce, birth, marriage, moving, new jobs), loss, trauma, emotional regulation, relationships problems and even general goal setting. I believe the key to life satisfaction is identifying your core values and then working to align your behaviors and decisions with those values.

A strong, secure relationship can bring enormous joy to your life, and a struggling relationship can bring tremendous pain, fear, and despair. If your current relationship is in trouble because of conflict, lack of connection, or problems you can't fix on your own, I can help. I work deeply with couples so that they understand their own attachment styles and emotional patterns and those of their partner. Couples gain confidence in their connection so that they can leave behind patterns of emotional reactivity and withdrawal/shutdown, and share their needs, fears and feelings with confidence.

I have over 20 years of experience as a social worker and therapist and over 14 years as an art therapist. I have worked with children and families in a variety of settings and capacities. I started my career working in foster care and residential settings and have experience working with grief/loss, trauma, family discord, behavioral and emotional issues, and mood disorders. Since becoming a parent in 2006, I have a passion for working with parents, women and mothers as well as adolescents. I am able to engage individuals who may be uncomfortable with traditional talk therapy.

**I am taking new online clients* Hello - I help women break free from manipulative relationships. We can feel so trapped by toxic coaches, bosses, partners and family members. Many times these people appear to be great, fantastic people and the toxicity is hidden so we feel at fault; we end up feeling crazy. You are going to learn to recognize your own needs and feelings. You will see what behaviors are OK and which ones are abusive. You will forgive yourself for your choices and participation. And you will see that you are not crazy. Your inner voice is correct; your compass points to true North; you will find a way forward.

As humans, our desire for connection and belonging is innate, healthy and our birthright. Too often, parts of us seem to sabotage our relationships and peace of mind by utilizing old learned patterns, meant to protect, but now limiting our fullest expressions of love and security. When we explore, honor and understand the origins of these parts and turn toward them with compassion, we offer ourselves the opportunity to integrate and heal old wounds, to live and love in the present, informed by, but not limited by the past. I assist individuals and couples in transforming themselves and their relationships.

Being a woman can be magical and empowering. It can also be exhausting. As women we navigate the many pressures of our every day lives. We can get lost in the day to day aspects of motherhood, being a partner, a friend, daughter and trying to uphold a career. Meanwhile our dreams and longing for more often take a backseat and get lost in the shuffle. In every woman , there is a voice that begs to be heard and a story that desires to be lived. Living a life in your own wild freedom is not something you need to wait to do someday. What would life look like if you listened to Her now?

Are you struggling with what is going on in your life or something that you previously experienced? I work to support women contemplating, experiencing and processing changes in life with specialties in infertility, pregnancy, postpartum and parenting. Life changes are extremely challenging and I am here to support your process. I also focus on reunification therapy between children and loved ones (all genders). Children who spend time away from a caregiver need additional support regaining trust and safety in the relationship. I support this rebuilding in a safe and intentional way.

People seek counseling for so many reasons. Though the Covid-19 crisis has shifted priorities and focus for many of us this past year +, there are still many other issues that bring people to counseling, that still need and deserve attention. We can work on whatever you need now, whatever issues feel most urgent to you - families, partners, work, health, money, etc. Always, we'll focus on strengths, options, and possibilities, and decide together how best to move forward. Using a blend of coaching and counseling, we'll work to create your best life possible, both during this difficult time, and going forward.

When is enough enough? Life is a constant process of managing work, family, friendships, partnerships, parenting, a household; the list never ends. Every year you might think it's going to be better, less stress, more fun; and then it's back to the same draining routines. If you feel tired of wishing things in your life were different and finding yourself stuck in patterns and relationships that don't feel good, something has to change. Starting now might feel like too much, but, we know there's never the "perfect" time and waiting will set you back another year.

Simply put, I love being a part of one's journey toward his/hers greatest emotional health. I believe that all persons have unique tools to heal one's self. I see my role as a compassionate guide who, through effective inquiry, honesty, and our reflection upon the power of choice, can assist your transformation big or small. Whether you desire to improve your parenting skills, assist your struggling teen or clear your path to living more authentically, I would enjoy joining you along your journey toward your greatest health.
