*ONLY TELEHEALTH SERVICES PROVIDED* I approach therapy through three lenses; one that is empathetic, a curious learner, and one that is a facilitator of thought. The development of a team-like mentality is very important to the therapeutic relationship and growth. My clients are experts on their own lives, and I am here to learn. Genuineness, trust, and openness is highly encouraged so that we may learn about ourselves, live a valued life, and grow to the best of our ability. My main focus is substance abuse, harm reduction, anxiety, depression, and integration of mystical experiences. I work for Heal Your Life Counseling LLC.

I believe children are capable of overcoming challenges and becoming the best versions of themselves. Whether they experience symptoms related to depression, anxiety, ADHD, or trauma, my goal is to restore hope, increase confidence, and provide the developmentally appropriate tools needed to achieve cognitive, emotional, and behavioral wellness. I value the therapeutic relationship and use effective techniques that help improve self-esteem, self-confidence, mood changes, thought patterns, and coping skills.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MDiv, LPC

I work with all ages of clients: adults, adolescents and children older than 6. My adult clients generally have a trauma or grief background and are ready to stop letting their past define their current lives. I do work from a Story Informed Trauma Therapy approach with EMDR, and together, we look deeply into your stories and begin recognizing patterns that were once very helpful, but now no longer working. By understanding why you made past choices, my clients find that they can begin to transform unwanted thoughts and behaviors into a healthier way of life. With children, I focus on grief, anxiety and life issues related to kids.

Most of the clients I see are looking for freedom. They want to live their lives no longer stuck in cycles of anxiety, depression, poor coping skills, strained relationships, etc. While many people are incredibly resilient, it is more than okay to bring a trusted person into your story and ask for help. That is a huge first step! If you are at that point where you feel you've exhausted all your options and you need help, don't hesitate to reach out!

As a psychotherapist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I treat a wide range of sexual, relationship and intimacy issues. I work with individuals and couples. Sex is one of the deepest and most powerful experiences we have and it can also be a source of great stress and shame when things do not go as smoothly as we would like. Cultural messages and biases can further compound these issues. I provide a safe and nonjudgemental environment for individuals or couples to discuss these issues.

Are you sick and tired of being stuck and feeling pained because of trauma and past painful experiences? Are you not sure about your life story and what it really means to be you? Do you feel slighted, and minimized by others? Do you have few people who really understand where you are coming from? Trauma can bring and keep individuals down sometimes with and even without provocation. If you have not been helped by talk therapy then art therapy coupled with Advanced Integrative Therapy and/or addictions counseling may put you on the fast track to recovery.

I am a licensed professional counselor and my motto is "I'm in the business of self-acceptance more than the business of self-improvement." I hold to the tenant that when we shoot for and achieve self-acceptance it is then that self trust, self love and self confidence organically emerge. We achieve these goals through a series of gentle conversations that lead to remarkable self discoveries.
