Our life's work is helping clients achieve a better sense of self and happiness...more recently we've recognized that without good mental health providers finding this balance in life can be more difficult and stressful. As a result, we tend toward and Integrative approach and have our clients transform into the people they want to be. We see each client as an individual with many parts to their identity. Utilizing a holistic and systemic approach we help clients reintegrate the parts of themselves to function better as individuals and within their systems. Our focus tends toward a systems based approach using behavior methods.

I am aware the path to healing can be a bumpy and uncomfortable one. I provide a compassionate and empathetic approach to this healing process. My approach looks at our internal wounds that left untreated, continue to cause pain. I like to ask, in the words of Dr. Gabor Mate’, ‘why the pain, not why the addiction?' We know using a substance or behavior is how we cope with the pain that feels unmanageable. Our pain, ‘dis-ease’, and dis-comfort often stems from unresolved grief & loss and are the result of 'what happened to us'. Let's look at what happened to us instead of what is wrong with us. I believe this approach decreases shame

Together, we can work to create new solutions for dealing with emotional pain. Starting this process can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to. I have an up front, relatable style, and work to help clients improve their functioning, sense of well-being, and peace. Understanding and validation are key ingredients in my work, but sometimes we need to go deeper and challenge ourselves in order to find the peace we deserve. I can help facilitate this process, and reduce your fear. This work is best suited to treating Anxiety and Mood Disorders, Addictions - C-SAT, and Trauma.

I specialize in working with teens, tweens and thier families facing a variety of issues, including anxiety, ADHD, depression, self-esteem, and behavioral challenges. Whether it's navigating academic pressure, social dynamics, or family conflicts, I am dedicated to providing personalized support and guidance every step of the way. My approach to therapy is rooted in evidence-based behavioral techniques, supplemented by somatic interventions. I believe in the power of teaching practical, body-based skills like breathing techniques, which can be easily integrated into daily life outside of therapy sessions.

I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker that has been in practice since 2006. Throughout the years I have worked in different settings with individuals from all ages. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, and individuals struggling to cope with symptoms of depression, anxiety, marital or interpersonal relationship problems. I am familiar with non-traditional love styles and my approach is kink-affirming and sex positive.

I believe that through self-acceptance change is possible. I work with individuals to discover resilience and perseverance by working through barriers and building strength in their self-awareness along the way. I work with adults 18 and older struggling to manage life transitions, anxiety, depression, navigate difficult relationships and/or family dynamics, improve self-worth, and with those who may be struggling to cope with experiences related to trauma. I incorporate mindfulness with REBT, CBT, Behavioral, ACT, and Solution-focused techniques.

I appreciate the long and difficult journey one can sometimes experience prior to making the decision to seek out the support of a therapist. Therapy can offer a hopeful means of prevention and intervention and facilitate a healthy way of responding to challenging behaviors and complex developmental issues. With specialized training working with children, adolescents, and families, I am committed to collaborating with you throughout the therapy process in order to work towards the desired progress and growth for you and your family.

At Willis CC, our guests are encouraged to challenge themselves & find new ways to cope with life’s challenges. We believe to be human is to experience pain. We believe suffering, while part of the human experience, is not the identity of our humanity. Therefore, helping you hold pain lightly & with compassion while taking action to change your life is essentially what therapy is all about. We are dedicated to offering support & nurturance to those seeking a new direction while holding onto their values. You don’t have to see a therapist for the rest of your life, in fact, the sooner you need us less, the better for everyone!

As a therapist, I work collaboratively with my clients in processing their experiences and finding healthy and productive ways to solve problems as well as gain insight into the reasons for maladaptive behaviors. In the treatment process, I encourage clients to formulate their own treatment goals and we will work together to find ways to achieve these goals via modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Solutions-focused interventions. I see my role as one of support, guidance, active listening, and empowering the client to develop positive coping mechanisms in the process of making changes to thoughts and behaviors.

It is no secret that mental distress can be a devastating roadblock in life. It is my hope that together, we can create a completely safe and understanding environment in which we can work together toward achieving balance, implementing healthy coping strategies, and navigating life’s many obstacles toward growth. Therapy can be quite a daunting step to take for many, but I have no doubt in my mind that together, we can lay the foundation for personal growth.

When experiencing heightened emotions, it can be challenging to complete daily tasks, find joy in relationships or just feel like yourself. Often when one person in a family is struggling the entire family is impacted. I work with individuals and families struggling with connection, anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, relationship and family concerns. I specialize in working with families, parents and individual adults to build strong relationships and help families tackle the tasks and goals asked of them every day.
