I am the author of Be Calm: A Guided Journal, creator of Gentle Beacon, and specialist in the treatment of anxiety and
depression
.
I believe you were born with the skills you need to live life. You can create, connect, and cut a rug. Sometimes through life we have an experience, environment, or emotion that is so strong; it separates us from our natural skills. Where we once had ease and order, we now have dis-ease and dis-order. I believe combining our skills, self-determination, and safety will get us back to ourselves and living once again.

I have experience treating those with
depression
& anxiety, Bipolar I & II, & as well as personality disorders including BPD.
I have over two decades of experience working with individuals seeking to improve their emotional & spiritual health. During this time I have seen first hand how difficult it can be for individuals to admit that they are struggling with their thoughts and emotions and their overall emotional health. It is even more challenging to have the courage to seek out and ask for assistance and help. The good news I want to share is that when I've had the opportunity to work with someone asking for help, that individual is able to improve their mental health and grow to experience their thoughts and emotions with depth and positivity.

Counselor, NCC, LMHC

My specialties include trauma, anxiety, and
depression
.
Trauma can be difficult and complex. The path to healing can be as well. Clients who have experienced trauma, but who have a strong desire to overcome their obstacles and strive for a healthy, balanced way of life, relieved of the mounting weight of the experience, are the clients that instill enthusiasm and drive in me. Their needs may range from help processing underlying emotions, dismantling unhelpful thought patterns, or creating goals that align with their strengths. These values and motives make up my ideal client. They want freedom from a negative experience because they know the potential joy of being their fullest self.

These can often be signs and symptoms of
depression
, anxiety, and overwhelm and all can be addressed and shifted in counseling to a much better feeling, relaxed, calm, confident and motivated way of life.
Are you feeling stressed-out, overwhelmed, frazzled, irritable, and anxious? Is it getting harder to get out of bed each day? Are you facing some life challenges that seem to be just too too much? Are you feeling like you're at a dead end, procrastinating, no motivation, and moving through life is like moving through molasses? Are you down on yourself and feel empty inside? Has there been grief/trauma/different forms of abuse in your life?

“Shame dies when stories are told in safe places,” writes Ann Voskamp. And shame is woven into so many of our stories - whether we're dealing with
depression
, trauma, loss, or challenging relationships - past or present. In my work with clients, I seek to provide that safe place where those stories can begin to be told, healing can begin, and shame can die. I honor my clients’ stories and I value the collaborative relationship so necessary for healing and growth to occur, realizing, in the words of Lysa TerKeurst, that “there is this beautiful thing called imperfect progress – slow steps of progress wrapped in grace.”

Mental health affects all areas of our lives and by addressing these needs, patients begin to live more fulfilling lives. My ideal patient is curious and motivated to explore ways of improving the quality of their life in ways that are meaningful to them.

Depression Therapists
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
