My working history has made me passionate about helping clients where they are in life, with a special interest in early development. I encourage the exploration and processing of initial presenting concerns, work towards meeting desired goals, while also supporting growth in all aspects of life that may arise over the course of our therapeutic time together. I recognize that the time spent with me is only an hour of someone's regular day-to-day life, and hope to provide skills that remain applicable - long after any therapeutic time with together.

Healing and recovery is possible. Change doesn’t come over night so it can seem daunting but in my 17 years of experience I have learned that people mainly want to be heard and validated. I will support ANYONE though ANYTIME, ANYTIME. I have experience working with grief, trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, low self esteem, and mood instability. I value working with all ages, genders, backgrounds, and orientations. As a person centered and solution focused therapist we will begin where you are and move toward mental wellness. EMDR/CBT are effective tools to address concerns.

Everyone has a rough time sometimes. This can be a result of trauma or mental health or even our own choices. My goal as a therapist is to help recover from those times and enter the next phase of healing so that the third phase of life can be amazing. Our past doesn't define us but how we respond to the past can define us. Let's work together to make that the most positive growth point.

I have been told that I am a good listener. This is an essential quality in a good therapist but it is by no means sufficient. Throughout my training, I have collected what I believe to be the most effective strategies and perspectives for bringing about change in a person's behaviors and beliefs that is consistent with who the individual wishes to be. I am particularly proud that I have been able to work effectively with people of broadly varying belief systems in ways that enable them to call on already existing internal resources to improve their lives within their own personal environment.

Where do I go from here you might ask? You've endured a traumatic experience, maybe even more than once. You just had another blowout with your troublesome child or your family is in a spiraling crisis. You're in a volatile custody battle. Perhaps you don't recognize who you are anymore. You are paralyzed with fear or you don't know why you are so sad. Did that last explosive outburst of anger cross a penalizing line? I can help. I can work to help you function, to overcome a baffling obstacle or see a new vista.

So many of us have been through traumatic experiences that have left us feeling hopeless, overwhelmed, and falling into unhealthy patterns. We experience an inner critical voice that tells us we are not good enough, ugly, or worthless. I love to provide a safe and comforting space for clients to process their difficult life experiences, break through cycles of shame, and begin recovery from addictive behaviors, including with eating and embodiment issues. Together, we focus on healing, reclaiming health, practicing intuitive self-care, celebrating your authentic self and beauty, and cultivating self-love.

Life can leave us feeling confused, overwhelmed, disconnected, and full of emotions that we may not understand. You may find yourself struggling with trauma, acceptance, anxiety, depression, worry, fear, grief, and/or shame. You may remember a time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to learn ways to diminish unwanted feelings and symptoms. You're ready to face your problems and work through them. Most of all, you're ready to improve your quality of life and live beyond your struggles and worries.

"Over the past few years, the demand for mental health services has increased. The field of mental health, in efforts to meet this demand, has caused the technique of counseling to become commercialized. When I created Harris & Harris my mission was to create a business practice that was ethically driven to get back to the basics of counseling. Customer volume should never be a measurement of success within a business, but providing consistent quality service should always be a measurement standard."
