You may be here because you want to be able to adapt to a new transition, acknowledge and process difficult emotions, and engage in growth. Wherever you are in the process, I will meet you where you're at to help you get to where you want to be. Therapy asks that you be vulnerable, trusting, ready for change, and willing to do the work and I am honored to be considered as your therapist.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults to provide individual, couple, and family therapy. I work from a systems focused perspective where treatment draws from client strengths, is solution-focused, and family centered. I believe in being supportive and empowering clients in their journey to improve. I enjoy using cognitive behavioral techniques to address concerns such as self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and general life stressors.

Currently accepting new clients. The professionals at TCMA are committed to supporting individuals and families through difficult and challenging life moments. Our treatment philosophy is that people should receive only the services most appropriate to their specific needs, personal orientation and presenting problems. We employ only those counseling approaches that adhere to the highest standards of our profession and believe the counseling process is successful only when the work is done between both the counselor and the client.

"Liminality" refers to the middle stage of change, the threshhold between what was, and what is yet to be. It is when, and where, we are forced by circumstance or choice to leave behind what is familiar, and to journey into a place of uncertainty. It is a normal part of being human. I named my practice Liminal Therapy to honor the process of change and human resilience. My clients are adults (18+) and include people with ADHD and related anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, addictions, and issues related to the stressors of life stages and transitions. Diversity and multicultural wisdom traditions are welcome and appreciated.

My practice is currently full, but I'm happy to provide approximate wait time on openings. I have deep appreciation for the strength it takes to reach out for support when life becomes overwhelming, stressful or we find ourselves stuck. Recognizing that we might be in need of support can be difficult, I see it as a bold and courageous endeavor that can lead to a happier and more enriched life. I utilize an eclectic approach in my practice to support my clients with managing a variety of mental health issues, to assist in finding symptom relief, to work towards achieving improved relationships and overall increased life satisfaction.

Hello! Please make sure to view my insurance/payment section before contacting. I enjoy helping people to challenge their problems, to navigate new environments/social or emotional spaces, and to create new understandings of themselves as they evolve. I enjoy working with college-age clients, single people, couples, parents, veterans (I am an Army veteran), people facing life-stage change, and anyone looking to resolve issues from their development. I often find that, regardless of a client’s complaint, there’s a little kid on the inside who needs some resolution or reassurance for them to feel safe and enough so to move on in life.

Healthy and fulfilling human connection is more important and meaningful now than ever before. Feeling safe and comfortable out in the world, and/or readjusting after several years that made us re-think our most intimate relationships and how we connect with our partners, can be unsettling and exhausting. Peer relationships, family connections, or life partners, I work collaboratively with clients across the life span. I am an advocate for preventative care in all aspects of our lives, including our mental health and relational health.

Maya Angelou said, “do the best you can until you know better and when you know better, do better.” It's never too late to meet your authentic self & do better. Healing requires surrender, & when we let go of the familiar we make room for something greater. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I provide a safe & secure space for everyone to peel back layers & explore their inner world so they can heal. I provide insight toward better ways of being human that are in alignment with the true self. We are all unique & deeply gifted human beings, & I strive to empower every person I work with to discover their true unlimited potential.
