You’ve been thinking about therapy for a while now. You feel overwhelmed by the daily grind. Unable to balance the demands of work and family. Doing nothing is no longer an option. Maybe you’re feeling stuck in a negative headspace. Over-thinking things. Distracted at work. Feeling less present at home. Headed down the old path towards self-destructive behaviors. You're not alone. You aren’t damaged, weak, or “broken.” You’re none of those things. You’re simply human.  And, these days, being human can be incredibly hard.

I work with individuals of all ages. I specialize in children, adolescents, and young adults. I have worked with issues such as depression, anxiety, school/college related issues, relationship issues, self-esteem/image, family conflict, self-harm, trauma, etc. I believe every person has their own unique world view. Counseling should be tailored to an individual’s specific needs. Rapport building, and collaboration with the client is essential as well as being culturally informed. I am empathic and nonjudgmental and offer a safe environment for all. Please note: I do not take insurance.

I primarily deal with the current issues that a client is coming into therapy for. I want to know if they were in therapy before and why. I primarily deal with a Family Systems Approach and due to that will be interest in the clients background and their family history. I will focus on current and past stressors and any traumatic experiences that the client identifies either currently or from children. I am currently only providing online services. I currently have openings and can schedule an appointment within several days of being contacted online or via my telephone number at 506-9620.

Effective therapy develops goals for change. Treatment also supports establishing new ways of experiencing life, behaviors and relationships. My private practice emphasizes making change through openness and trust, and building a personal plan that suits your unique life circumstance. There is no prescription for the length of therapy; some changes can occur with a few sessions and others may taken longer. Having realistic goals can help define when therapy is completed. Please call or email me learn more.

Everyone needs a different perspective at one point or another. I invite you to bring your old strengths into a new perspective to improve current issues you face in your life. You may come to gain a viewpoint outside of your current network of friends and family, and to take a look at your own perspective. By gaining new insight, you will find ways to make positive change and cope with whatever it is you carry with you through the door. Together we can, through talk therapy, explore how you can become the healthiest you.
