Are you struggling to find balance in your life? Let's work together to increase your self-confidence, control, and happiness! I enjoy working with adults in crisis. Anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and trauma are just a few of the areas of focus in my practice. It is my belief that no individual should face mental health challenges alone. Trained therapists can help clients overcome the challenges that seem insurmountable and may decrease their ability to enjoy life, set and achieve goals, and look forward to a brighter future.

Together we choose from a spectrum of techniques, including cognitive/behavioral, family or couples therapy, insight-oriented techniques, and hypnotherapy, to create the right plan.
I draw from many therapeutic modes. However, I specialize in hypnotherapy, including visualization and past life regression, due to the rapid improvement after just 2 or 3 sessions. Even initially skeptical clients are often astonished by the leap forward in stress relief, symptom reduction, or improvement in unhealthy habits such as smoking.

In my 27 years of practice, I have extensive experience working with trauma (PTSD), abuse, mood disorders, anxiety disorders (including OCD) and interpersonal/ relationship difficulties.
Art therapy encourages relaxation and emotional expression, easing the process of addressing difficult issues while allowing gentle access to the unconscious mind. This is key to discovering the root causes of many problems, which are often much harder to reach using talk therapy alone. The addition of EMDR can quicken the resolution of problems.

I believe that everyone deserves relief from emotional distress so that they can better manage their lives, participate in their community, and achieve their hopes and dreams. I also believe that people are much more than their diagnoses; both our minds and our bodies send us information to help us heal. I enjoy working with clients on whole person care by integrating physical health (diet, sleep, exercise) with a variety of therapeutic styles in order to meet a client where they are at in their journey of healing.

When you’re at the bottom of a chasm, it can be easy to miss the way out for the darkness and the hopelessness. I will look into that chasm and shout to the people at the lowest points, making sure they see the rope I’m throwing down to them. I won’t be able to pull them up all the way, but I’ll help them part of the way and before they know it, they’ll be climbing up to the surface because with my help, they’re strong enough to climb back into the light.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
