Hi, I'm Wendy. Do you find yourself wondering how dating, relationships, and intimacy got so complicated? I help smart, successful people confront the REAL barriers to love, connection, and emotional fulfillment. Together, we'll explore the challenges that have gotten in the way of you getting the relationships with others that you deserve.

Women experience very unique challenges, which influence overall well-being, contentedness, and connection. Together we will build awareness and understanding of your experiences.

My approach to therapy begins with helping clients to define their goals and to empower them to move toward the most fulfilling life possible.

Anxiety, depression, and unprocessed trauma have been keeping you trapped. You want to thrive and feel like your life is moving in a better direction, that you have a purpose and that you’re no longer cycling through patterns that have only caused you more pain. You’re tired of feeling like you are going around in circles, feeling “stuck” but you're not exactly sure why or what to do. Maybe you can’t remember the last time you weren’t feeling anxious, exhausted, or doubting yourself. You’re curious about what a life full of intention, joy, and peace could be like but aren’t sure how to get there. I hear you; it’s time to transform.

As someone who has been on both sides of the therapy chair, I understand how vulnerable therapy can make you feel and how intimidating it can be. My focus is on creating a therapeutic relationship to allow for authenticity and empathy. I believe that by gaining insight and learning about the relationships we hold with ourselves and those we interact with, we gain a sense of understanding, confidence and security.

Hello and welcome! Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling with your relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? As your therapist, I can help you manage anxiety, and depression, avoid burnout and learn how to develop more meaningful relationships with others and yourself. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole-self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body, and spirit.

Experiencing depression, anxiety, or trauma can affect us to the point that is debilitating. I can help you understand your roadblocks. You'll learn to tap into unknown strengths, learn new strategies, or challenge beliefs that are no longer effective. I specialize in working with individuals, children, couples, and families. I've provided services for a wide range of concerns including trauma, grief, career challenges, ADHD, and more. Within about 3 months, clients report feeling better and began to thrive in their lives.

With 30 years of extensive experience working with individuals, couples and families my focus is on the resolution of problems (hence the name RESOLUTION COUNSELING). The goal is to improve relationships and facilitate positive change. I am certified in chemical dependency and related issues and treat many other disorders. Direct in my approach, I offer insights providing options for making changes. Breaking free of old, conditioned patterns is critical to finding fulfillment and happiness. Learning how to make healthy choices will enhance one's life. I instill HOPE that change is possible because once you have the tools you have the ability to move forward!

Having the tools we need to navigate our way through life's challenges is often the key to greater happiness and fulfillment. I believe that human beings start from a place of health and resilience. When we have difficult or traumatic experiences, we can often be sidetracked by self-doubt, anxiety, depression and more. This can make life and relationships feel overwhelming, confusing and at times unmanageable. Therapy provides a safe space to explore and understand ourselves better while also developing the tools we need to move forward. Through this process, we can begin to heal from the past while creating a more intentional future.

Life poses many challenges. As an experienced therapist I will work with you to help understand your feelings and experiences in order to make sense of the issues in your life. Perhaps you are struggling with relationships, life transitions or with feelings of inadequacy, perhaps life feels out of balance, or you are concerned about bothersome patterns of behavior. Anxiety, depression and grief may all accompany us as we live our lives. Listening to your story will allow me to assist you in better helping you cope. Working together I aim to help you discover new pathways to move forward on your journey.

Are you in your 20's and having difficulty coping with the complexities of life? Therapy is an amazingly powerful tool to create tangible change in young people's lives, but it is important to find a relatable therapist who doesn't treat 18-30 year olds with the same frames and modalities that are used for younger kids or their parents. I am a licensed LCSW who has been working with young adults in schools and in private practice for almost 20 years. My entire career is focused on helping young adults and their families through life's biggest challenges.
