I believe the therapeutic process is much more beneficial and efficient when the process is viewed as a collaboration. You and your life experiences can be your best teacher and I utilize the lessons you have learned to facilitate change and propel you to a better life. The following are some of the life transitions and challenges I have considerable experience in with adults, adolescents and children: anxiety, anger management, bipolar disorder, blended/extended family challenges, depression, divorce/relationship loss, marriage and pre-marital, stress management and unemployment workplace issues.

For me, working with teens and their families, along with couples and individuals, is my vocation rather than my profession. I help families and teens make sense of the struggles faced by kids and their parents today. I help couples rebuild strong bonds. I guide individuals into a heightened awareness of themselves and their world. Another professional/personal passion is Cancer. In this domain, it really takes one to know one (and their caretakers). Guiding either the patient or caretaker is a new mission for me. I work closely with the sentiments in Dr. Kelly Turner's books - Radical Remission and Radical Hope.

Accepting New Clients; does not accept insurance but can provide out of network paperwork/superbill. Military/law enforcement/small business owner discount. Too often people wait...and wait, hoping things will "just get better." Or maybe there is a stigma around seeking mental health services. My passion is helping people who have been stuck for too long, maybe even thinking all hope is gone. Being a veteran myself, and more specifically a Navy Psychologist, has enabled an understanding of this unique population. I am aware of the intricacies in navigating the VA and maintaining security clearances in careers after the military.

As a certified sex and relationship therapist, I find many people have difficulty talking about sex and often define themselves by the sexual challenges they live with. Instead of seeing sexual differences as negative or bad, what if we can redefine them to focus on our ability to feel pleasure during our sexual experiences? Sex is often not “safe” for people in emotional or physical pain. Some people develop a fear of engaging in sex; others avoid even talking about sex. When leaning into fear and avoidance, they give up on pleasure and sexuality.

It is my pleasure to work with individuals, couples, and families, to help bring hope and healing. Couples can find themselves in a place where they struggle to connect and end up in defense postures, feeling frustrated and disconnected. Often, there is healing that needs to take place as well as learning to see through each other's "lenses" to build a strong attachment that will last. Many individuals struggle with anxiety, depression, and past trauma, as well as negative thought cycles, leaving them stuck and miserable. It's common for teens to experience low self esteem and confusion about the future and where they belong.

Hello there! Welcome to my page. My work and focus changes with the age of my client that I’m working with. With a younger child, I join my clients on the floor and have a wide array of toys and games to connect with the child and play with them. With my pre-teen, teen, and young adults I focus on relationship building and gaining trust to assist with the goals that we set. I treat all my clients with respect to reflect the innate worth I believe that every individual holds.

Hi there! I am a License Professional Counselor and have been helping people realize their true inner power for healing since 2010. My job as a counselor is to walk alongside you to assist in opening your mind to more helpful ways to walk through life. Many of us have had early, or current, experiences that have changed how we respond to people and situations. My specialty in treatment is being able to look at some of those situations through a different light and incorporate that part of us into our current story.

What if you could navigate your relationships, manage stress during life transitions in healthier ways, understand the roots of your anxiety or addiction and communicate in ways that foster deeper connections? As an experienced therapist, I understand that embarking on a journey of change takes courage. Imagine a life where you're not bound by the limitations that keep you feeling "stuck" in patterns that no longer serve you.
