I am currently working on developing my private practice at Safehaven Counseling Center where we take an integrated holistic approach to emotional, physical, and spiritual health. As you make your way through life, I am here to provide a compassionate, warm, non-judgmental space for you to better understand yourself and the journey that God has set before you. You may be experiencing difficulty in a relationship or suffering from depression or anxiety. You may be trying to make sense of past trauma or abuse. Whatever your situation, I am committed to walking alongside you as you work through difficult issues towards healing.

Life can sometimes be really hard. Sometimes by our own doing, sometimes because of someone else, and sometimes you just don't feel 'right'. These bumps (or mountains sometimes!) can be tough to get through. Whether it is you, your marriage or relationship, or your family that is struggling, I want to work together with you to get you back to where you need to be. I value authenticity and desire to be 'real' with my clients.

My goal as a functional NP is to get to the root of the problem. There are countless physical health conditions that impact our overall mental health. Many people are treated for symptoms, but the cause is frequently overlooked. At Syringa, we will assess things like thyroid dysfunction, hormonal imbalances in women, low testosterone in men, and many other common causes of mental health symptoms. Our goal is to treat the underlying problem and not focus on symptom resolution. When the body is healed, the symptoms will resolve.

I believe that we must be deeply connected to who we are first, in order to deeply connect with others. I also believe that true connection matters in all aspects of life. I would be honored to assist you in finding the emotional healing you need to thrive in the future. Individual sessions are designed to provide a customized space for healing and hope in a safe and supportive environment. During these sessions, clients work one on one to acquire vital tools for healing while developing coping skills, exploring intimacy, enhancing communication and resolving conflict.

I like clients that are unique, meaning I enjoy people's differences. I tend to create the treatment plan around the client and their needs rather than a cookie cutter type of treatment plan. I work with a wide range of clients from children and adolescents to couples therapy.

In counseling, the client's life story, relationships, attachments, emotions and thoughts are to be respected and cherished as a treasure. We believe that it takes courage to seek counseling, and that healing is an on-going journey towards health and wellness. This journey may be difficult at times to navigate. It is our desire to work with you to help you get through those tough times, whether they be something you are experiencing yourself, in relationship, within your family, or socially.

"What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim. Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!" (Alfred Adler) THERAPY to me is Thoughtful, Hopeful, Empathetic, Restoring, Affirming, Powerful, and something You CAN do!

Our mission at Life Counseling Center is to provide counseling and support services to the community that bring hope, freedom, and restoration from personal and relational pain. In addition, we are committed to meeting the diverse needs in our community by providing ongoing, innovative, and comprehensive care. We value the diversity of all individuals and the limitless potential they have for personal growth. We believe that our purposes can only be fulfilled when we are open to and dependent on God, each other, and the many resources that exist beyond our walls.

My philosophy is rooted in 3 pillars of commitment: first is truth, I seek to be a kind and insightful counselor. as such my interactions with clients are candid and honest, it is a core belief that we all need to hear the truth about our actions, our feelings and what we need to do to overcome the issues facing the client. This is reinforced through an experiential element in which the client is given exercises and homework assignments. The second, compassion. The third pillar is taken from the Greek philosophy of a "healthy mind and a healthy body" approach to mental wellness.

I have experience working with people of all ages with a diverse range of backgrounds. I am excited to provide services to individuals, families, and couples dealing with stress, anxiety, substance use disorders, depression, life changes, and trauma among other issues. I have worked in a variety of human service positions for more than 14 years helping children, youth, and families. I approach counseling from a whole-person health perspective which focuses on everyone’s unique needs.

Holistically-minded, future-focused, out-of-the-box solutions for every concern and situation. I enjoy working with clients who seek change and a future full of possibilities, despite past situations. Clients I work with often need help improving their self-esteem, navigating the intricacies of interpersonal communication, and working through blueprints of the past that are negatively impacting them in the present, working together to build a new future. I often function as a sounding board with the ability to see situations from a different perspective, while offering problem solving, guidance and unconditional regard.

The road to recovery can be overwhelming and not always clear. Our licensed professionals are here to help with competence and compassion on things like family conflicts, disturbed moods (such as anger, anxiety, panic, and depression) behavioral disturbances, stress, relationship conflicts, social problems, career issues, loss, grief, addiction, and trauma.

I am a licensed clinical therapist, who has over a decade of experience in the treatment of individuals as well as family systems. I began my experience in the field of Wilderness Therapy where I continue to draw from nature's inherent healing capacity. I operate from a strength-based perspective while utilizing knowledge of the most current research based treatment. I believe our life experience is a journey of change and transformation. When we take the courage to address our greatest conflicts, we enter a gateway to open to our greatest potential.

Welcome to a place where both children and adults discover a comforting haven, filled with therapeutic interventions tailored to their unique needs. I embrace an empathetic and holistic approach, ensuring a safe, genuine, and nurturing environment for all. I'm deeply driven by my unwavering dedication to support children and pre-teens aged three to eleven. Through both directive and non-directive play therapy, we embark on a transformative journey. Harnessing the natural language of play, I empower children to express their emotions and resolve conflicts.

I have a deep passion for helping those who are suffering from substance use disorders as well as other addictive disorders. Through both a directive and nondirective therapeutic approach, I can help you realize how to identify generational trauma, current trauma, lack of connections, and maladaptive family systems, that so often lead to turning to substances or behaviors to aid in the alleviation of the symptoms of those traumas and attachment injuries. With a loving and secure connection, I can help you identify your goals, realize the steps needed to achieve those goals, and maintain long-term recovery in your life.
