Stress can be psychologically toxic, even for helpers. Loss, trauma, injury/Illness anger, shame & fatigue can lead to anxiety and depression as well as relationship and behavior problems. Therapeutic relationships improve health by assisting with psychological detoxification and with the establishment of healthy emotional, interpersonal/social, mental, and physical habits to help inoculate against these "toxins." Sometimes natural healthy defenses against toxic stress break down and fail to protect us against painful or maladaptive feelings, thoughts, and beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world around us.

As a holistic psychologist and interfaith minister, I understand clients' situations in the context of mind, body and spirit. I provide psychotherapy to individuals in a relaxed and respectful atmosphere. My clients have healed from depression, anxiety, trauma, life changes, divorce, parenting challenges, grief, and stress. I offer alternative healing with a variety of psychotherapy approaches for a quicker, more lasting healing. It is an honor to empower people to return to self-understanding, wellness and joy. My journey has taught me that each life challenge is an opportunity to grow.

I believe everyone has inherent value, has purpose, and belongs in this world. A person can be greatly impacted by stress, life changes, trauma, and pain/hurt which can lead people to believe they do not have value or feel no longer worthwhile. People can heal from these things and can learn new skills to better regulate emotions. Sometimes people just need someone to show up and help guide the healing process. We can heal the hurt and find ways to move forward in life. I work to provide a calm, safe, open, non-judgmental space to allow this process to begin.

You who are highly sensitive and feel a lot, welcome! You'll explore more deeply with me than in traditional talk therapy. You’ve likely tried psychotherapy before but have noticed that the work has either gone nowhere or taken you only so far, or you felt misunderstood. With an uncanny and intuitive ability to really “get” people from many walks of life, I will invite you to go beneath your thoughts, connect with your body and emotions, and gently access the root of your emotional discomfort and hurts to facilitate noticeable shifts with each session.

Life difficulties can propel us forward or they can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, angry and depressed. They can also take a toll on our interpersonal relationships. They can make us feel like our entire life is out of balance. I invite you to a safe environment where you can openly process difficult life experiences so that you can live a more fulfilling life with more meaningful relationships. I work with individuals, couples and families who have experienced trauma. I work from a core belief that our minds and body are interconnected. Past traumatic experiences get stored in our bodies and physical symptoms can manifest.

It takes a lot of Courage to seek help. For most, the journey begins when the struggle becomes overwhelming or unbearable. The Willingness to accept support & guidance usually does not come easy. I applaud anyone who does so. Basic human needs include survival, a sense of belonging, power, freedom and fun. When these elements are not in place or are out of balance, we can present as anxious, depressed, stressed out and angry. I work well with people who are wanting to gain clarity around imbalances, and who want to take action on making changes that align with, and help to maintain, personal integrity.

Are you ready to invest in yourself? Do you feel stress and anxiety are limiting your potential for happiness? Often, we are asked to give, even when we do not have ‘it’ to give. This can leave us feeling overwhelmed, lonely, and downright exhausted. The good news is that it doesn't have to be that way. I can help create the safe and calm space you need to reprioritize yourself, your surroundings and your goals. My clients do not just want to survive life, they are looking to thrive!
