I offer a safe space for client to share their narrative without concern of being compromised.I also meet with the client in a compassionate and sympathetic way.

We offer skilled, licensed therapists who have experience working with individuals, children, and families who have faced trauma, abuse, neglect, substance use, foster care, and adoption.

Do ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you cannot reach your goals? Do you find it difficult to manage daily stressors, or do mental health issues interfere with your plans? Sometimes it feels like no matter how hard we try, we cannot overcome our problems on our own. I am a mental health provider who can help you overcome those obstacles. I have a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

You’re intelligent and a hard worker, yet you continue feeling pulled down by the weight of stress, nagging thoughts and uncomfortable memories from the past. You’ve always pushed through hard times but now you’re overwhelmed, feeling on edge and having a hard time keeping up with work and family . Sometimes the thoughts you work hard to forget pop into your head at the most inconvenient times. No one should feel overloaded and weighed down by the past. It’s exhausting!

Do you feel overwhelmed, worried, or sad and don't know where to turn? Is the way you are feeling affecting your relationships, your job, your sleep? Have you experienced disturbing or traumatic events in your life that seem to be affecting your daily living? Do you have struggles in your marriage or challenges as a parent and don't know what else to try? I help people like you everyday. Through the counseling process, you can begin to understand the struggles you are experiencing, and learn more effective ways of dealing with and resolving some of the difficulties in your life.

Human connection is a necessity. Yet, why do the ones we love the most seem to hurt us in the worst ways? If only they would listen, be understanding and meet our needs. Love should be easy, yes? What if I told you these paradigms of thinking hinder our ability to fully connect and get the love and relationships we desire? My area of focus is couples, married and unmarried, as well as families and adults/adolescents in dysfunctional relationship systems.

It takes courage to make that first phone call to establish a therapy session and it takes even more courage to meet that therapist being vulnerable in discussing your concerns in this life. My goal when I meet every client is to support them in discovering how to make this life worth living. Many individuals go through life just coasting day by day trying to get by minute by minute. While I can not give you a magical solution to take care of all of life's problems, I can be there for you, listen to you and guide you towards living the best life you can live for you and your family .

ATTENTION PARENTS WHOSE CHILD IS STRUGGLING WITH DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, OR INTERPERSONAL ISSUES (AT SCHOOL OR AT HOME): You have a teenager who needs someone to talk to, but you aren’t sure who they will feel comfortable with. When your child shares their challenging experiences, you want someone who can RELATE. You’re looking for someone who has lived what your child is facing, and who MADE IT THROUGH. Someone who has a shared understanding of the struggles of being a teen, someone who can provide support and empathy, and someone who has already learned to manage and conquer what your adolescent is feeling.

We all experience emotional ups and downs from time to time caused by events in our lives or even a recent diagnosis. I specialize in assisting those who suffer from depression, anxiety and addiction. Your symptoms may be triggered by job loss, relational problems, trauma, divorce or even loss of a love one. Your symptoms may effect your relationships with your family , friends, classmates or co-workers.

The group practice assists in finding answers for where (and why) an individual/ family may be in their life.....how they got there (influences, stressors, traumas, barriers), identifying alternatives for improved life functioning (treatment, employment options etc), and finally assisting in finding contentment, balance and peace with current life status while encouraging optimal functioning in all aspects of one's life or business.

It is not uncommon to find ourselves at some point in our lives feeling “stuck” often leaving us scared, paralyzed, sad, confused, angry, and/or fed up. It is my belief clients are the experts in their own lives and I aid in the uncovering process of their inherent goodness and strengths. Through an open and affirming, culturally competent, and trauma informed environment, I help clients feel “un-stuck” to then go and live the lives they want to live. It is my honor and privilege to walk alongside a wide range of clients and hear their stories.

I have experience helping children, adolescents, and adults with issues including depression, anxiety, adjustment and marriage/relationship issues.

I have the benefit of being both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an ordained minister, both in the state of Indiana. My caring and compassionate spirit helps me see each client in a similar and relational manner.
