My counseling style is collaborative and empowering, with a focus on cultivating a therapeutic environment that invites authenticity, embodiment, trust, insight, creativity, and humor. The core of my work is to help clients tap into their innate ability to grow and heal in order to connect to a life more deeply grounded in meaning and joy. Within a safe, empathetic, and nonjudgmental space, I invite you to examine inner beliefs and how they shape your behaviors, relationships, and emotional wellbeing. I believe that, with compassion and curiosity, sitting in the present with what is can be truly transformational.

Now doing In Person Myofascial Release! Talk therapy will remain virtual. Let me help you make some big shifts in your life! Most of the reason why we sabotage or ruin our progress is because our unconscious self is driving our behaviors. I can help you to bring those unconscious beliefs into your awareness so you can change your behaviors that don't serve you anymore. As a body-centered therapist (LPC and LMT), I help people who may be stuck in their healing process and are in need of deep and active work. By utilizing both psychotherapy and Myofascial Release, I help clients heal more effectively.

Hi there and welcome! Reaching out is one of the hardest steps, but I truly believe everyone can benefit from therapy. We all face tough situations, and talking through those situations with someone who can offer support in a non-judgmental, unbiased way can be extremely helpful. Since multiple factors affect how people respond to different experiences, it is essential that your treatment plan be individualized for your specific situation. Regardless of what brings you into therapy, I strive to offer these individualized plans by pulling from various therapy modalities while including you every step the way.

Are you feeling down or just not yourself? Are you overwhelmed or burdened by stress at home, work, or school? Whether you are challenged by life's transitions, relational concerns, grief/loss, anxiety, or depression, I am here to help! Everyone's experience is unique, and I work together with each client to process their current challenges and achieve the changes that they desire. You have it within you to reach your full potential and find the happiness you are seeking. I am EMDR trained and use the modality to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety and depression.

Awareness. It is often what is missing when you are feeling overwhelmed, out of control, or trapped by negative patterns in your life. I will work with you to help you grow your awareness, to understand the factors within yourself, others, and the world around you that are contributing to your unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and actions. By collaborating together to reveal these hidden factors, we will bring useful processes and tools into sessions to help you set goals that move you toward greater balance in your life.

Do you feel stifled? At an impasse in your life? Wouldn't you rather perceive dilemmas as an opportunity for growth rather than as pathologies?

Your relationship with yourself and others cause you to suffer in ways that your friends can't fully comprehend. Feelings of failure, insecurity, anxiety and depression have left you feeling like a stranger in your own life. You question yourself, wondering if you've done something wrong... whether there's something you should be doing differently. Friends and family are trying to be helpful with their advice, but it often leaves you feeling worse. Some days you have hope and others you feel you are in true despair. You are desperate to make sense of it all, and you don't know where to turn.

The foundation of my approach is curiosity. My individual therapy style is relational, nurturing, and insightful. Whether working with young people or adults, I strive to provide them with individual tools to transform into more openhearted and authentic versions of themselves. My maxim: You can heal so many parts of your life by approaching it with a curious heart and open mind.

We will mix and match different interventions, to create a personalized action plan that best fits your own needs, preferences, and goals for therapy.

Did you think you had this handled but it keeps coming up? Learning new coping strategies to change your behavior is often temporary but there is a better solution - change your brain. Recent research shows that the brain is flexible, it changed as you adapted to traumatic events and it can change again to recover original potentials. You can change your history.

I provide psychotherapy services to both individuals and couples for a variety of reasons. I have assisted clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and stress or need help with anger management, assertiveness, marital discord or maybe need coaching for personal growth and development. I use an integrated practice style that is both strength-based and goal-oriented. Depending on what you want to work on, I may utilize various evidence-based approaches based upon the presenting problem. As long as goals are safe and ethical, my goal is to help you achieve yours in a relaxed and non-judgmental environment.

At Conscious Grace Therapy, I work with clients to explore their relationship to self and to develop a life that is a more authentic expression of who they are and how they actually experience the world. My clients often identify feeling so overwhelmed by expectations, responsibilities and challenging experiences that being honest with what they feel, need, desire or experience is often not a realistic option. Instead, they live in the tension of striving to be the person they need to be or are supposed to be.

I believe that we are all predisposed to live happy, healthy, balanced lives. However, sometimes life experiences and nagging feelings of depression and anxiety can slow us down, making us feel stuck and hopeless. If this is where you are and would like to move toward more relaxation, peace, abundance, and joy in your life, I am here to help.

Life can be wonderful, messy, painful, and beautiful. If you are feeling alone, confused, or struggling to understand why you are feeling the way you are feeling, seeking out a “neutral person” can be very helpful. A therapist is a person who can listen to you in a non-judgemental way and help you figure out how to make positive changes in your life. We are a group practice comprised of social workers who believe everyone deserves access to quality and affordable mental health care.

Life can be unpredictable and feel like an uphill struggle filled with challenges we feel like we don't know how to face. Even in these hard moments, I believe you have the strength and resilience to not only get through life's burdens, but also find a sense of meaning, purpose, and deeper connection with yourself and others. These inner resources can be hard to find on your own. I am here to help you see your strength and ability to face challenges so that you can lead a more fulfilling life. My passion is to guide my clients towards making positive changes by using therapeutic tools that best suit the individual or family dynamic.
