Also, I'm new to OK so chances are good that I won't have connections to your friends/family even in a small town.
Life is hard - no one was meant to have to figure it out on their own including YOU. Maybe you have hard stuff from the past to deal with, maybe you're caught up thinking about the future, maybe you're just trying to manage with parenting and adulting, or maybe your relationships aren't what you wish they were. Wherever you are in life, whatever you're dealing with, I'll meet you where you are and walk along side you. Together we can find your path to a more hopeful future and uncover some joy along the way. That's what we all really want anyhow isn't it - to find our joy.

It can feel helpless fighting a battle with your own mind. Filled with uncertainty of how to stop a barrage of unhelpful thoughts and worry. The constant anxiety affects your job, friendships, family, and lifestyle. Sometimes putting one foot in front of the other feels like lifting 1000lb weights. From incessantly planning to avoid the next bad thing around the corner to the feelings of being so drained that things that once brought you life are no longer enjoyable. It hurts, but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

The focus of therapy is to create a sense of empowerment over one's thoughts, feelings, and actions. The idea is to work through irrational thought patterns and understand the physiological mechanisms of the brain that help create change. Also, to understand how our past and present are link together while governing a person's choices in life.

Trauma can play a detrimental role in the very concept of who you believe yourself to be at your core. These beliefs run deep and can affect every aspect of your life from your job to your relationships. At some point in our lives, we are all in need of guidance to help us along our journey toward self discovery and healing. Through this process we can find meaning, purpose, and recovery from the symptoms of trauma and life struggles such as anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.

It's okay to speak up and ask for help to become a better you in your marriage, family, or as a parent.
Sometimes life is hard and overwhelming. You try to hold it all together and as far as anyone can tell you are doing just that. But on the inside you are falling apart. You're exhausted trying to keep your life together and hold it in so nobody knows what you're really going through. You're worried it's starting to show. But now it's enough. You don't think you can hold it in and hide it anymore. You're tired of keeping it all together for everyone else, and ignoring yourself and your own needs. It's okay that you are not okay. That's the first step, realizing it's time for something to change. It's time that you took care of you!

Maybe recent relationship, family, or career situations have led to you feeling a deep inner turmoil and questions you can't seem to answer.
I believe in the innate goodness of each person no matter what they’ve done, how they’ve been labeled, or what obstacles they face. I feel passionate about empowering people to break through their barriers to find a deep sense of inner confidence, peace, joy, strength, and freedom so they can overcome any challenge and accomplish their personal and professional goals. As an athlete and adventurer I understand the desire to achieve what can feel unattainable, and love to watch as people discover they have everything within them to succeed in anything they desire to accomplish.

How on earth do you choose a great therapist? Seriously, I mean...look at the hundreds of wonderful therapists on this site! Picking a therapist can be intimidating, but don't let it daunt you! Studies continually show that, for therapy to be "successful," there needs to be a strong relationship between you and your therapist. That's it. Really. Skill and competency are important-yes-but a therapist's expertise won't shine through if you don't trust them.

I have advanced training to treat issues related to attachment, relationships, sex, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse and growing up in a dysfunctional family.
With over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping clients create secure, healthy attachments to their loved ones and with themselves. Most of my clients are what I call, "cycle breakers." They are highly successful people who want to strengthen their mental heath and relationships. I do this through Emotionally Focused Therapy and the method of re-parenting, which is a way of giving oneself what they needed as a child and allows them to break unhealthy patterns.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
