Family Therapy in 46580

I believe that treatment is most helpful when provided in a safe environment that is free of judgments and filled with compassion and respect. I believe the majority of our troubles stem from our upbringing and the relationships we've had in our life, past and present. In order to heal, it is necessary to explore this. This will take time and will be difficult. We will learn coping skills along the way to manage life's ups and downs in a healthy way.

Finding a therapist competent in and understanding of eating disorders, chronic illness, trauma, and spirituality/sexuality issues is a difficult task, and I am glad you are here! Our sessions will provide you with the opportunity to work through the underlying mental health-related issues that are keeping you stuck. We might work on trauma, anxiety, depression, and many other aspects of your life. Sessions might be individual or with family. Your individualized recovery is important and deserves the best care available to you, including referrals to and coordination with multidisciplinary providers to ensure holistic treatment.

We all have parts of ourselves that we like, and we have parts of ourselves that frustrate, confuse, or scare us. I’m interested in the whole of a person - both internally and externally - and desire to create a safe space for all parts of my clients. It is my hope to help you create acceptance and safety for these parts of you as well. Being trained as a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT) gives me a holistic, systems-focused approach to clients’ lives. My experience with clients has cultivated a passion for trauma-informed, attachment-based, and person-centered care.

Life as a human can be an extremely challenging experience. Have you ever felt like you were made for something greater? You are a person, and as a person your life truly matters. I believe that we were created for something so much greater, and one of our great longings is to experience some of that greatness here on earth. Our experiences in life help to shape the way we view the world, and when bad things happen to us that can harm the way we see. I would love to walk alongside you to regain what seems lost. It is my hope to help all of my clients to optimize the person they were created to be! I look forward to meeting you!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with families, couples and individuals. I have experience working in day treatment settings, in-home as well as residential settings. I believe in treating the individual, not the masses. That meaning, I believe each client's experience is unique and what works for one does not work for all.

‘If only I would have… I shouldn’t have… I should have known … Why wasn’t I more careful? How am I going to get through this?’ Having an emotional response to a serious experience like an accident, rape, or natural disaster is normal. Nevertheless, the everyday demands of life can be just as exhausting. Your boss has been pressuring you to work longer hours because of being short staffed. You feel guilty for working and not being able to spend time with your children, partner, other family and friends. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, with a focus on your personal self-care, may be complicated.

Are you a parent with a child experiencing emotional or behavioral issues, finding yourself worn out, desperate to understand and help your child, and in need of support to find your way forward? Are you an adult impacted by and suffering from mental, emotional, or relational issues? Whether you're seeking to support your child or yourself, you need a safe space, a knowledgeable guide, and an empathic presence to help create the change and healing you desire to live your most meaningful and connected life. We are each our own best healer, with innate capacity and inherent wisdom. And we don't have to do it alone.

If you are ready for some positive changes in your life for optimal wellness, let's work together! I am goal-oriented and solution-focused. I want to develop a strategy with you to get to the root of the concern, not simply surface-level change.

We aim to provide a safe therapeutic environment that promotes a deeper understanding of self, others, and faith. Our therapeutic approach is anchored in the Christian world view. Our goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

For almost 20 years I’ve come alongside individuals, couples, and families struggling with a variety of concerns. One of my greatest passions is helping people discover their potential through developing their own tools and skills to work thru life’s complexities. I help people get to the root of what’s challenging for them. Together we will work towards rebuilding the way your mind and body responds to your experiences in life and will equip you with the right tools so you feel confident to pursue your goals towards healing.

I believe that each individual has a story that deserves to be honored. I want to meet each person where they are at and encourage positive and healthy growth. I strive to build healthy therapeutic relationships with my clients and create a space that feels safe and empowering.

I believe the client is the expert. You know your self better than anyone. You know how you feel when life happens, you know what frustrates you and what makes you angry. You know what is upsetting and what makes you sad, and you know when something isn't right or that something is off. The problem is that sometimes you don't know why, and if you don't know why, you can't fix it. I take an approach that starts with uncovering what you believe, because so much of what you believe becomes reality whether it's through our behavior or through some kind of a self fulfilling prophecy.

Life brings challenges and sometimes it becomes overwhelming impacting our physical and mental health. Our ability to manage daily frustrations is tested, being present with our friends and family is difficult, finding joy and meaning in life is diminished and our sleep patterns change. Together we will explore what wellness and connection mean to you and chart a plan to reach this goal.

I provide individual and couples counseling for adults. I also work with children and families on a limited basis. I will meet with you in-person at my office or virtually by phone or a secure video-conferencing platform. At this time, I am only accepting new clients on a private pay basis.
