Hello, and welcome. I am a counselor who works with individuals and couples ages 17 and up. I treat depression, anxiety, panic, trauma, OCD, grief and loss, life transitions, and relationship distress. My approach is integrative, combining emotionally focused therapy, behavioral therapies, cognitive behavioral therapy, and somatic techniques. I am a LPC and I have a doctorate with over 15 years of experience in the field of psychology. Sessions with me tend to be semi-structured, with us working towards your goals while leaving space for timely stressors that arise. Warmth, support and curiosity are always present in my sessions.

Our professional group practice offers various services including professional therapy, life coaching and testing services. At The Center, we are passionate about empowering people to find pathways of growth and healing, to gain awareness/understanding of barriers and obstacles to health, to see our clients discover their God-given temperaments and to help them grow lives they love living. We provide best practice clinical care while additionally offering a faith-based integrative approach to clients who would like to incorporate their spirituality into counseling.

If you’re looking for a safe place to discuss life challenges and to explore ways to better your overall sense of well-being, then entering therapy may be the right choice for you! I offer counseling for adults going through life transitions, grief-related issues, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ-related issues, as well as a range of other needs. I'm passionate about working with people who are hesitant to ask for help and feel that everyone, no matter who they are, really deserve someone to hear them. Entering therapy is a brave step.

Awareness in itself is healing. -Fritz Perls. Imagine having the world's most incredible tool for healing, acceptance, and fulfilling experiences at your disposal. Now, what if I told you that YOU are actually this tool. Our mind and body connect in incredible ways. Sometimes, we just need help learning how to listen to what we need, and get to know the person we know we can be; and maybe, always were. At True North Vitality, we hope to help you find wholeness and of course, your True North.

Are you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed by life's daily demands? Are you at a point in your life where you are tired of dealing with anxiety, stress or depression alone that you are ready for a change? Then therapy can help. Starting therapy can take courage, please know that I am proud of you for getting started on this journey! When you come into the office, we will discuss what’s going on in your life and figure out how to move forward. My personal belief for therapy is that change can happen without focusing on a person’s deficits. I believe when we focus on happiness and joy that physical and emotional health can be achieved.

My passion is working with clients who struggle with eating concerns and body image issues. I have experience with anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. I can also help if you feel that your relationship with food and/or exercise is complicated but have not been diagnosed with an eating disorder. I practice from a Health at Every Size perspective and offer an inclusive space for all. I value being empathetic while challenging my clients to step outside of their comfort zone and unlock their strengths. Taking the first step to get help and support can be intimidating but it can lead to growth and change!

My goal as a counselor is to create a positive, supportive environment in which you can explore yourself, your needs,and your goals. You will also have the opportunity to assess the barriers that prevent you from reaching your full potential. The rational, holistic, and non-judgmental nature to the counseling I provide allows YOU to guide your own counseling experience.

If it feels like you're in a constant battle within your mind, you're not alone. We all experience negative thoughts and feelings that, at times, feel overwhelming.

Maybe you're left reeling after a life event (or global pandemic). Big and small life changes alike can cause you to feel like your foundations are shaking. But whatever you may be experiencing, finding the right therapist can go a long way towards healing and growth. This is where I hope to help!
