Helping others is my greatest passion. In my almost 20 years as a licensed professional counselor, I have rewardingly helped numerous clients through many difficulties, including: parenting, relationships, career decisions, marriage difficulties, bipolar, emotional difficulties, grief, trauma, schizophrenia, stress, depression, and anxiety. My overall goal is to be effective in helping you through a caring therapeutic relationship, treating you with the highest level of respect.

Let's face it, life events shape our present, and contribute to a loss of connection to ourselves, family, others, and the world. A recovered sense-of-self is essential for empowerment to face these issues. And, because this disconnect initially occurs in earliest childhood, traditional "talk" therapy alone is an insufficient approach. I am a therapist shaped by a myriad of life roles and events. I intentionally sought a PhD in clinical psychology with a specialization in "somatic psychology" to underscore my own therapeutic experience. Somatic psychology studies how the "body" informs and provides clues to our emotional responses linked to childhood.

Are you looking for a place to help you explore healing? Have you gotten to a place that you feel like you may need guidance to help you keep going? Are you burdened with depression, anxiety, grief, low-self esteem, or even life transitions? Most of all, have you come to understand that you are HUMAN and you just need a person that you can lean on for help?

I believe that individuals and families who seek mental health therapy desire to make changes but often are unsure where to start. Clients bring past trauma, setbacks, feelings of hopelessness, and despair into the therapeutic setting. Navigating through life transitions can often be daunting and confusing as well. Someone who can listen and partner with clients on their journey is paramount to their recovery. Goals include a life free of the constant bombardment of destructive thoughts that interfere with the quality of relationships and a sense of purpose.

For many years my clients have primarily been individuals, groups, and families coming out of abusive and sometimes violent relationships and addiction. Although that was the original primary focus, most of them also struggled with other accompanying factors like depression, anxiety and other serious mental health diagnoses. My clinical focus has recently shifted to more of a community-based population. I have found this work incredibly rewarding. I enjoy working with additional needs such as grief, prenatal, postpartum depression, and abandonment trauma to name a few.

We are all worthy of love, happiness and respect, as long as these do not come at the expense of others. Happiness, joy, peace, fulfillment, love and meaning are likely things we must discover, create and nurture throughout our lives. Our current selves are the culmination of our past however this is not all we are. I believe we all have basic human needs that are in constant flux and we are responsible for fulfilling those needs through the choices we make and relationships we maintain. Finding balance within life is fostered through challenging our perspectives and learning from our mistakes/failures, not shaming or fearing them.
