Before you can even grab your coffee the intrusive thoughts and feelings flood in. The need to do compulsions is on repeat in your mind through out the day. Other people seem connected to their life, moving through it naturally and freely..... You want that too. I hear you! I work with women to help them let go of the doubt & the need for certainty and to find peace & contentment in their life. I want you to learn how to stop answering the "what if..." questions and lean into your values-filled life instead!

I understand it is not easy to come to therapy but talking to family and friends is entirely different then talk "therapy". This is especially true if you are depressed, anxious, grieved, struggling in your marriage or have trauma. Just take that first step and make the phone call and I will guide you through the rest. My clients are so surprised to find out what a relief it is to come to therapy and wonder why they waited so long. My seasoned listening skills and thought provoking questions will help you know yourself better and reach your goals. My style is light and warm yet focused on results. Growth is my specialty!

Hello and welcome! I know how difficult it can be to navigate life’s challenges. I also know it may be even more difficult to seek help, but I’m so happy you’re here. Through our time together, we’ll explore where you are now and the goals you have for yourself, create a plan that will help you to move forward, and then work through it all together. I believe in creating an environment where individuals are empowered to explore their thoughts and feelings openly, with the goal of developing practical skills for managing challenges and building resilience.

Do you feel out of sorts, weighed down, stressed by everyday life or by some specific issues that you don't seem to be able to resolve? I can help you identify what is getting in your way and preventing you from fulfilling your aspirations and reaching your goals. I'll help you focus on the alterations needed so your life becomes happy, serene and exciting. It is often how we think that prevents us from finding solutions. Talking things out with an empathic other helps, and friends do. But they often project themselves into your situation and give you advice from THEIR perspective . A good therapist sees things through YOUR eyes.

Life is filled with many opportunities as well as challenges. My goal is to help children and adolescents recognize and seize those opportunities and overcome any challenges and obstacles that get in their way. By helping them create a positive mindset, build effective coping strategies, and expand their repertoire of problem-solving skills, they can live a healthy, satisfying, and successful social and academic life. The earlier these skills are cultivated within the child or adolescent, the greater the opportunities to practice and utilize them to their benefit.

When addressing life's most vulnerable impasses, we believe that strong relationship building and the development of an effective treatment plan involving insight and behavior change are the keys to success. Our therapists work with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families stuck in familiar but ineffective patterns of coping. We guide our clients through the process of change where keys to solution are courageously uncovered.

Hello, it’s so nice to meet you! My name is Elaine, but you can call me Laney.

I will help you increase your level of self-awareness and identify barriers that impede on personal growth and overall well-being by utilizing empirically based therapies. I assure you; you will be in good hands.
