I specialize in Relationship Therapy (couples, pairs) & High-Powered Therapy for individuals. <> Relationships: we feel frustration, anger & loneliness when we're not understood, seen or respected. We wonder - How can I love someone & also hate them? Why do I want to push them away & also wish they'd be closer? How can I feel lonely in a partnership I'm not alone in? <> Individuals: I work with strong, high-achieving "Type A"s who find it hard to slow down, to "just be" content, who need someone who understands your pace, how your mind works, how it feels like you're 15 steps ahead when everyone else is still figuring out step 1.

I am lucky to be doing what I do. I get to shed light and help people get unstuck so to reveal their authentic selves. For 12 years, my main focus was on helping children as young as 3 years old and parents. I am now open to working with all ages. I have an eclectic approach which includes client-centered, experiential and existential therapy. I allow the person to go at their pace so to address things when ready and with encouragement when needed. I help gain perspective, have accountability, learn about feelings and coping skills, increase self confidence and self esteem and process trauma.

I offer a dynamic approach to mental health care using holistic, body-mind integrated therapeutic techniques. I believe that often individuals need support to clear what's blocking our natural ability to navigate our lives from our own truth and that each of us have instinctive abilities to heal ourselves. I can partner with you to identify and activate your inner strengths and authentic self. I provide counseling in a safe environment and my clinical focus builds upon clients' existing strengths and aliveness. In office or video counseling available.

I work with individuals who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and Complex PTSD, especially those who feel emotionally overwhelmed, have difficulty setting boundaries, feel disconnected from themselves, and struggle with rescuing/fixing others at their expense.

The difference between a glass half empty and one half full is a matter of shifting perspective. Sounds simple, but years of trauma, habitual behaviors, and thinking patterns can train our brains to see only what we expect to see. Research has shown that these brain patterns can be shifted at any time in life. New brain based therapies such as brainspotting make this process more accessible, creating shifts in your feeling and thinking states that lead to more balance and emotional well-being. Learning to recognize and listen to your body's innate intelligence is the first step.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. We aim to cultivate hope in all our clients.

We often deal with more than one problem at a time. Our passion is helping people who struggle with multiple problems build a fulfilling and meaningful life.

There is nothing I enjoy more than helping people improve their lives and relationships; feel less stressed and more content. I take a down-to-earth approach that focuses on your particular needs, desires and goals. Then we come up with a plan for how to enable you to meet your goals.

Once you understand the source of your difficulties, and have an ally to help you make the necessary changes, anything is possible.

“One of our greatest freedoms is how we react to things.” – Charlie Mackesy. This quote has a personal significance to me because it highlights the human capacity for resilience and the ability to transform difficult experiences into opportunities for personal growth. I'm passionate about assisting individuals who may have difficulty acknowledging their strengths, and empowering them to confront challenges with confidence. In addition to providing support to individuals facing diverse challenges, I take pride in being available as a listening ear to anyone who needs it.

Are you unhappy with your life or unfulfilled in your relationships? Do you feel overwhelmed by worry, sadness, anxiety or uncertainty? Sometimes we just get stuck and find that coping on our own isn't working.

I use evidenced- based interventions specializing in depression, anxiety, relationships and behavior patterns, as well as addiction issues. I am accepting new clients and will respond the same day.

Transitions are, by their very nature, difficult. Adjusting to any life change requires continued growth, self-development and a balance between one's inner strength and external resources. I assist adults (as well as senior citizens) to create a meaningful existence in the social and environmental contexts of their lives. I use cognitive behavioral methods to help my clients successfully cope with a broad spectrum of stressors and personal life challenges related to major life events--career change, retirement, divorce or the death of a loved one.

My passion is meeting and working with you. I want to walk with you, understand your life and be a support when your life feels like a struggle.

Disconnected, stuck, unmotivated, or deeply pained teens improve with therapy. If your teen is glued to their phone, failing school, has experienced a traumatic event, suicide attempt, is self-harming, abusing drugs, or has parents going through a divorce - we've seen it all. The teen experience is tough! At Antelope Recovery, we understand that not all teens want to go to therapy, but they know that what they're currently doing isn't working, and they want to feel better. We also specialize in helping teens who have tried other types of help, such as 1:1 therapy or medication but have not experienced significant improvement.

Through a blend of interventions I assist children, adults, parents, and couples in overcoming their anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, dissociation, traumas, grief, and relationship patterns and conflict.
