My clients often come to me because they feel discouraged about resolving the challenges they are facing. Though troubling, depression, anxiety, conflict are often an invitation for us to take the time to focus inward, understand core issues underlying the symptoms, and learn more about our true needs. With this new awareness we may consciously choose new actions that help us develop a more fulfilling future. Through our work clients tell me they enjoy greater self esteem, more confidence that they can create what they want in their lives, and happier, healthier relationships with loved ones.

I am honored to come alongside clients to help them achieve their therapy goals. By collaborating, I assist clients in formulating goals and we work on meeting them together. My experience has equipped me to assist clients with managing anxiety, refining coping skills, regulating depression, alleviating stress, and dealing with conflict. I aim to give my clients the tools to thrive and empower them to take action. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, and women. Specifically, I am passionate about supporting mothers as they navigate the challenges of parenthood and the stressors involved in care giving.

I feel incredibly fortunate to help my clients find the freedom to live a life of their choosing, improve their relationship with self and others, and find peace. I use brain-based therapies proven to uncover and address issues that talk therapy can take years to heal. In doing so I help children, teens and adults overcome challenges that keep them stuck in negative patterns. Often traumas are at the root of these negative patterns. By offering Brainspotting, a cutting-edge therapy that evolved from EMDR, trauma is accessed, processed and released. This is life-changing. This is freedom.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 12 years of experience. I understand that each person seeks therapy for their own unique challenges; therefore, therapy should not be a one-size-fits-all approach. My therapy orientation is an eclectic one. I am well-versed in Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered, Attachment Theories, and Art Therapy. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Play Therapy. I am certified in EMDR.

I have a heart for clients of all ages and I believe it is never too early or too late to take any step in a positive direction.

I believe that the one hour you devote to yourself during the therapy process will have a positive effect on the remaining 167 hours you will live during the week.

The process of finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I am here to provide an open, warm, and genuine environment where you can feel safe and find peace. My passion is helping others. Based on my education and life experiences I believe working through our struggles provides an opportunity for a more satisfying and fulfilling life. My experience includes work in several areas including depression, anxiety, foster/adoption support, bipolar disorder, and life transitions.

In my work as a therapist I have found my true passion in helping people find happier, healthier, and more productive lives. I love working with people in all stages of life and all states of healing. I love working with teenagers, parents, individuals and married and co-parenting couples coming alongside them in their difficulties and heartbreak with the goal of finding true joy again.

I work with adolescents, families and adults struggling with a variety of emotional, psychological and behavioral issues. I provide both therapy and assessment in my practice.

I use different approaches to help clients work through individual and interpersonal difficulties and believe strongly in the concepts of self determination and self actualization. I also provide divorce mediation services.

My approach assumes that my clients are the best judges of what they need, that significant and lasting change can take place in every session, and that anyone can learn ways to create a more productive, purposeful, and passionate life. I love collaborating with my clients in creating and sustaining the changes they wish to make and surprising them with how quickly and deeply these changes can manifest. I have a broad range of experience with challenges clients may face, and have in-depth experience with trauma, teens, men's issues, and challenge of creating purpose and meaning.

Is your world getting smaller due to the grip of anxiety or OCD? Are you isolating and tired from nonstop thinking, and missing the joy in life? Are you a parent whose child’s anxiety is out of control and spilling over to other family members? I offer warm, nonjudgmental support to children, teens, adults, couples and families. I specialize in anxiety and trauma and have resources and tools that will help you get out of your head, connect with others, and feel better.

Tele-medicine in the privacy of your home or office. Anxious? Stressed? Are you a highly sensitive person (HSP)? If so, you may be interested to know that this is not a disorder. Do you have a rich and complex inner life? When you were a child, did your parents or others see you as sensitive or too shy? How can someone be too sensitive? If you do not consider yourself sensitive, perhaps you are in a relationship where sensitivity would enhance your intimacy and partnership. I help individuals and couples struggling with relationships. Do you want to live an authentic life?

Glad you're here. You may not be in the best mood, relationship, or situation, and you might be trying to help a loved one find a therapist; whatever it is - you are in the right place. My theoretical approach is always client-centered with an ecclectic treatment approach pulling from Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt, and Brainspotting therapies. I love helping people willing to explore hard things - who've had trauma - who are ready for different and want to make the most of it - who understand the importance of being true to yourself while honoring life choices for others - with strength.
