Are you feeling stuck in a rut, depressed, angry or anxious more days than not? It's not a matter of willpower so please take the first step and stop beating yourself up! We were all created to be loving, connected, and balanced individuals and anytime we are not feeling that way it's because of our baggage. Professionally and personally, I have found that by combining IFS therapy with EMDR, many people are able to revisit painful experiences in a way that allows them to release feelings of terror, shame, and guilt and leave their baggage behind.

A Walk with Grace, LLC, presents a compassionate and non-judgmental space to approach change. I am a licensed professional counselor committed to working with individuals, couples and families who are seeking to discover skills as they recover from life challenges. This collaborative approach help clients to better understand their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors as they transition through the healing process. I believe that when we understand our past we are then able to make informed decisions about how we choose to interact in our present.

As an experienced, licensed counselor, I understand what steps are needed to make real healing possible. Just like the physical body, healing for the mind and spirit requires time and it is important to know at the onset that the counseling process will be a journey, rather than a sprint. I provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental space in which to share their story, helping them take their first steps on the path to lasting health. As a trauma-informed, source-focused counselor, I prioritize addressing the root source of a problem rather than its symptoms.

The exquisitely personal work we do in psychotherapy is one of the most challenging, and most richly rewarding efforts we can undertake. Seeking a deeper understanding of ourselves, healing pain from past relationships and pursuing a more energetic life are essential journeys to take. It is a privilege for me to accompany clients on this journey, holding the lantern that lights the way ahead and sharing in their struggle to find an invigorated life. This relationship is the foundation of healing and healthy change; a relationship with a therapist who is genuine, respectful, resourceful, compassionate, humorous and nonjudgmental.

Sometimes it's hard to reach out for help when life presents unexpected challenges. Perhaps your relationship has soured. Maybe your child has you ready to yank your hair out. Has dealing with aging parents taken its toll on your emotions? Are you an athlete looking to take your game to the next level? Need help coping with nagging pain? There are times in life when you need to talk to someone who can help you see things from a new perspective, resolve your issues, and get back into the game of life.

Finding the right therapist for YOU and the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors associated with positive therapy results. I place primary importance on our relationship providing an atmosphere of safety, warmth and understanding. While I have a wealth of professional and personal knowledge and expertise in individual and family recovery from addictions/compulsive behaviors, family of origin issues and life patterns that prevent authentic living, I do not approach the relationship as an "expert" but rather as a supportive guide who joins you on the journey. I am passionate about all things relational.

Have the challenges of daily living caused you to become emotionally, mentally, spiritually and/or physically overwhelmed? Don't despair, there is hope! Rather than being content with the dysfunctional effects of life's challenges, I believe a more viable solution is to work towards identifying the source of the struggle and define ways to eradicate or lessen the pain or brokenness. You are not destined to remain hurt or broken; together, in a caring, trusting, and compassionate environment, we will explore a life path that can lead to your good health and wholeness in spirit, mind, and body.

I firmly believe that every person can benefit from working with a therapist. Let's face it...none of us get through childhood and adolescence scot free. We all have experiences that have caused us emotional, relational, and/or physical pain. Psychotherapy, at its best, provides a safe and supportive relational environment to help heal emotional and relational injuries from the past, untangle outdated and now unhelpful coping strategies developed to deal with the hurts, and gain the skills and understanding needed to move forward in life with stability and flexibility to handle the future.

With life coming at you from every angle, it can cause anxiety, depression, and fear of failure. Life makes you feel that nothing ever gets better and your past keeps showing up and making it worse. You need a safe space to slow down and heal from your past, show up and thrive in your present, and prepare for the future you want! I specialize in helping you get it ALL under control! I know the difficulty you have had trying to find a quality therapist when you work a 9-5, so I offer support both evenings and weekends! I specialize in healing trauma, increasing your self-esteem, and I offer EMDR and hypnosis.

After receiving invaluable warmth & empathy during my own experience of therapy I felt obliged to give others the same compassion. I use my skills as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator, Registered Yoga Teacher-500, & EMDR trained therapist along with IFS-informed parts work to help empower others to heal their wounds. I was motivated to earn the credentials of Registered Yoga Teacher-500 & Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator when my psychotherapy practice revealed to me that achieving whole-self healing requires not only addressing the scars of the mind, but also those held in the body.

I work with individuals middle school aged and up. My client's issues range from ADHD, depression and anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia in addition to phase of life/life changing issues. I work with many LBGTQ+ individuals and work very hard to be culturally sensitive and competent. If we are a good fit for one another, I have no doubt that we can work together to help you get back on the road to enjoy life or feel more confident in what you want to do next. Ideally, a client would choose me that was looking for a more relaxed feel while being able to complete the work. I'm more sweaters and T's than suits and buttons.
