If you've tried before but things just aren't coming together you know how frustrating it is to not be able to be the real you.

If you are ready, I'd be honored to work with you.

Welcome to the Mental Fitness Group, an innovative private practice focused on achieving mental fitness through exemplary healthcare. Much like physical fitness for physical health, we must practice mental fitness to maintain our mental health. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with 20 years' experience in mental health treatment and psychological and neuropsychological assessments for adults, women, veterans, and the elderly.

Thank you for visiting my profile! I am passionate about mental health. I believe in the importance of coming alongside clients to better their mental and emotional health, which can positively impact behavior and relationships. I can work with children and adolescents with learning disabilities and ADHD, as well as help children and adolescents obtain healthy coping strategies, emotional regulation and social skills. I can also offer career counseling for teens and young adults. I believe that we can work to help children and teens reach their fullest potential. I work under the supervision of Randel Duncan, MA, LPC-S.

“You cannot pour from an empty cup.” You have to take care of yourself before you take care of the rest of your world & I am here to help you do that. I am currently an EMDR trained therapist who has experience working with trauma as well as unresolved emotional experiences. I also use solution-focused approaches, as well as cognitive approaches, to guide individuals to a better understanding of their own patterns of thinking. I have experience working with individuals struggling with stress, anxiety, substance abuse, mood disorders, relationship conflicts, life changes, and adolescents struggling with adjustment.

Horses and nature are the background of our therapy porch and I can't wait to invite you in. Horses provide a mirror to our inner world that at times we don't even see. Engaging with clients in unique ways provides experiences that allow for deeper, more meaningful relationships and self - awareness. Horses remind us to be genuine and guide us on a journey towards our authentic selves.

Are you feeling stuck or lost? Is there something on your mind that you just cant work through alone? Sometimes we need a little help from someone to help us navigate these thoughts and feelings. Having someone you can talk to free from judgment can really make a difference in your day to day life. I want to help get you from point A to point B and work through all the things that are challenging you.

I want you to know you matter and what you are experiencing matters. You do not have to keep going through this alone. Overwhelming feelings of fear, anxiety, grief, sadness, or anger can impact your ability to function in your work, school, social or intimate relationships. Sometimes these feelings are connected with traumatic life events such as abuse experienced in childhood or traumatic events that happened to you in your adult life such as rape, COVID 19, car accidents, work related, marital affairs, or any event you define as being an emotionally disturbing experience.

As a LPC, I provide individual, family and group therapy. I specialize in sexual abuse, coping skills, severe mental illness, suicidal ideation and crisis intervention. I have several years experience in Testing and Evaluation and am currently a member of the American Psychological Association. My primary theoretical orientation is Choice Theory, which focuses on supporting, encouraging, listening, accepting, trusting, respecting and negotiating differences. Validating clients and their experiences is an important part in building the therapeutic process. My primary focus is working with adolescents and adults.

Does life feel like it is too much to handle right now? Life can be hard, stressful, and overwhelming in any given season. Then add a traumatic event and it can seem like game over. Trauma comes in many forms and can wreck havoc on your life and the life of those around you. At times it can feel like chaos is surrounding you. I would love to help you or your loved one to create a safe place for the healing journey to begin. I enjoy working alongside young adults, adolescents, and professionals with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and vicarious/secondary trauma.

My goal is to help individuals to get through their emotional problems and traumatic experiences and to heal the pain they feel. I believe in a close connection of body, mind and spirit and think that counseling can very well be approached from this perspective. I have experience with individuals from many different cultures, mentalities, beliefs, religions, and behaviors. I want to help clients heal and become whole again. I want to help them prosper, move forward in life and get what they deserve.

Life can be difficult, especially when it's changing. I want to empower you to maximize your potential, build your confidence and effectively navigate through difficult life issues. I work with clients who are affected by challenging situations such as stress, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, behavioral problems, as well as emotional and relationship difficulties. My therapeutic approach consists of client/therapist collaboration integrated with a strengths perspective and evidence-based practices. I look forward to helping you move toward a more fulfilling and purposeful life.

If hopelessness, loneliness, fear, anger, and despair are a part of your regular experience, there is help. Too many people walk out their daily lives carrying these heavy burdens all alone. Sometimes, even in marriage, there is a deep loneliness that feels overwhelming, but you do NOT have to make this journey alone.

Our experience of life may lead us to feel Distressed. Disappointed. Discouraged. Overwhelmed. Anxious. Burned out. Angry. Our friends and family may have given us their perspective, and we just need another impartial, objective point of view. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, with 20 years of experience overall, and 9 years in Private Practice, my primary objective is to provide a compassionate ear--and in that context--to provide Clients with useful tools and resources to assist them in experiencing a more satisfying quality of life.

Feeling stuck? Hope and healing are available! I believe in the brain's self-healing capabilities, but sometimes, due to trauma, this mechanism does not function properly, and we get "stuck". I can help you re-process traumas and other upsetting events so that you can move forward.

At the end of the day…I want to help people, like you--- wrestle with the painful and messy areas of life that keep you feeling “ashamed”, “alone”, “stuck” and “worthless”. Whatever you are struggling with, I am here for you. I want you to have a “safe space” to wrestle with the questions you often wonder about God: “How could God allow these things to happen?” “Where was God during these terrible times”?

We all have faced difficulties at one time or another. Challenging situations can be a great opportunity for positive change and self-awareness. As a counselor, I strive to offer empathy, compassion and a safe environment to each of my clients as they are working through their pain and walk beside them on their journey towards healing.

I believe that all change begins with the determination to make something different in ones life. Feelings often control the choices we make and cause reaction instead of response to situations. Counseling is an opportunity to do self discovery and look at what needs are to be met. I really enjoy helping others to find behaviors that meet their goals and consider responsibility for what they can change. I am a Christian and will guide others with spiritual guidance if preferred.

I believe every person is a unique make up of mind, body, and soul. I work to partner with clients to find the best ways to improve each area. I understand that every person is different and hope to tailor a specific treatment plan to help. Please email or call to schedule an initial evaluation if you have experienced any depression, anxiety, trauma, adjustment difficulties, relationship issues, or any other issue you'd like to address.
