Now Accepting New Clients - There’s no denying it, sometimes life can be really hard. And in addition to the many things happening outside ourselves, we all tend to get in our own way as well. We all sometimes think, feel, or do things that aren’t consistent with the person we want to be. This is completely normal, but it doesn’t have to be that way, and I’d like to help you make it better.

Psychotherapy is a helpful way to get relief from stress and suffering while at the same time finding meaning and purpose. As a licensed psychologist, I work with my clients to help them understand their emotions, relationships, and thinking patterns so that they will be able to face new challenges and make sense of past experiences. I work to create a relationship in which you will feel comfortable sharing. During our meetings I will pay careful attention to what you say and how you say it. Through curiosity, noticing patterns, and using humor we will work together to navigate the challenges you are facing.

Currently, I have availability for two clients. I am a state-licensed, nationally board-certified professional counselor with 32 years of experience. As a psychotherapist, my focus is holistic; treating the whole person and focusing on clients' gifts and skills, not just the so-called presenting problem. I believe all of us have answers within and need an objective, caring professional to help us discern what those answers are.

Therapy is a relationship between the client and therapist that gives you the opportunity to process and me the privilege of listening and offering another perspective on your situation. As a multiculturally competent counselor, I want to create a brave, non-judgemental space where you feel encouraged and celebrated to be your genuine self. Stable Minds therapy incorporates the neurobiology of horsemanship and the trauma brain in order to understand communication, coping mechanisms, emotional regulation, relationships, and so much more.

I believe we each have our own individual stories and unique experiences in which we face a number of challenges. In my practice I offer a space for those wishing to explore issues, develop skills, and heal past injuries. Incorporating a joy of movement and adventure, I believe health is holistic—combining physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual well-being and balance. I love to surround myself with nature through hiking with my sweet dog Nala, skiing, and gardening. I practice yoga, am a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, and believe in the energy and light within us all.

C'mon guys, let's be real, can we? I usually joke with the men that come to see me that they are either court-ordered or wife-ordered for therapy. I recognize that humor can be a powerful icebreaker easing into the process of addressing issues. Whether it be improved communication skills, increased self-awareness, developing empathy for self and others, mood management, or just plain having an empathic ear to validate your struggles. I can offer you assistance in achieving those goals and more if you would like.

Congratulation on taking a most challenging first step- reaching out and being willing to create change. I believe the primary goal of therapy is increased self-awareness. You may have parts of yourself that you are unconscious of, that you don't understand or that you belief that you can't change. Those perceptions can lead you to living a life that may not be in your best interest- causing painful experiences and ultimately preventing you from sharing your authentic self and who you are meant to be in the world.

Do you want to regain confidence, energy, optimism, and passion? Do you prefer to focus on what's strong, not what’s wrong? A grounded, heart-based approach honors intuition, dignity, and values.

Please note that I am currently at capacity and unable to accept new patients at this time. There is wisdom in the ways we adapt to our environments, but they do not always serve us in the present moment. My aim is to help people identify their adaptive patterns and view them with compassion, while also learning what to hold and what to let go. As a neurobiological informed therapist, I aim to help people move from judgement, shame and isolation to curiosity, acceptance and connection.

As your therapist, I will offer you the opportunity to reflect upon your life in a safe, respectful, and confidential environment.

We will identify how your life experiences are stored in your brain-body and influence your emotions, thinking, and behaviors. You will develop new pathways to promote a sense of well-being and inner strength.

I believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship. If you are seeking therapy, then you are already on your way to creating a more fulfilling life and I am excited to help you. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, beliefs, and relationship patterns that are causing pain. This approach is helpful for many issues including anxiety, depression, adjustment, and trauma. I specialize in working with teenagers and adults.

My consistent, caring and collaborative approach will help you gain insight and we will develop a plan to create fulfilling and lasting changes.

I have worked in this field for over 30 years in hospital, residential, day treatment, outpatient and home settings. My experience is primarily with young adults and with families who have children with special needs whether neurotypical or behavioral. I have worked with a lot of adolescents and pre-teens who are having difficulty adjusting to the demands of individuation and separation. It is important to regard everyone's life situation as unique and to support the process of personal awareness and growth.
