[Good news! Day, evening & Saturday openings are now available] As a group practice, we have a particular interest in helping our adult clients address traumas that may have occurred across their lifespan. Trauma can come in all shapes & sizes - we believe that trauma can be at the center of many concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, performance issues, & addiction, to name a few. We also love working with little ones, teens, and their families! Fears & worries, behavior problems, family & life changes, school & relationship struggles - these are just a few reasons why we see younger people & families.

No matter our age, race, socioeconomic group, educational level, sexuality, spiritual affiliation (or non-affiliation), or cultural backgrounds we all face the inevitable challenges of life, none of us are exempt from this. Most times we are able to navigate victoriously through these experiences, but sometimes our challenges can leave us so overwhelmed that we have difficulty understanding our situations and coping with our circumstances which makes it very difficult to find a way to overcome them. Ultimately we all want to "live our best life" and sometimes we may need to reach for a trusting hand to help us manifest it.

My life experiences have been too numerous to count. I've had loved ones die, disappointments, medical problems, divorce, betrayals, and more reasons to celebrate than I deserve. I have been extremely blessed by Jesus Christ my Savior, who is the source of all my strength. With God's help, I have accomplished things I never could have imagined. My greatest joy has been raising my three daughters. God gave me wisdom and taught me to have compassion for others in their times of struggles, trials, and difficulties. He taught me to see others through His eyes. He is my constant companion and counselor. Jesus is all the world to me.

I will help you discover those tools and assist you in life transitions so that you may find your true self. Do you feel like you're on autopilot? Life got you stressed out and you're just going through the motions. We will work together to help you recognize any thoughts or maladaptive behaviors that can produce painful feelings, that can lead to unresolved issues. Together we will discover your choices along with therapeutic goals to help you reach your full potential.

I have been a therapist and consultant for 32 years, supporting those that are looking for solutions to life's difficulties. Whether it is relationships, internal struggles, career guidance, or family conflicts, I love using evidence-based tools to support the discovery of your solutions. Having worked in the substance use disorder and mental health profession and at the executive level of larger organizations, I have years of practice allowing me to be creative and individualized in supporting your needs.

Are you feeling angry, anxious, or depressed? Weighed down by life stressors? Overwhelmed by conflicting roles and responsibilities? I will partner with you to help you be happier and more effective in navigating life's stressful complexities and challenges. I believe that we all need a shoulder to cry on, a place to vent, and someone with whom to brainstorm new ideas. I see my clients as unique, competent, and capable human beings who can use their strengths to bring about positive change in a timely manner. I am committed to supporting each of my clients in a safe and confidential environment.

The problems you're experiencing may seem overwhelming, but they can provide an opportunity for you to change your life for the better. Seeking out help is an important step toward dealing with the problems that have kept you from thinking, feeling, and relating to others the way you want. I enjoy helping individuals, couples, and families who are experiencing a variety of challenges. My two primary areas of focus and expertise are working with clients who are experiencing problems in their relationships, and those who are going through a transition in their life that is creating stress.

It can be overwhelming to navigate life on your own. While it may be scary, going to therapy can help you feel supported as you journey through the difficulties that life can present. I appreciate those who are willing to overcome their fears and allow me the honor of being a part of your story, helping you to navigate the obstacles.

I remember many years ago, while in graduate school, a professor stating that the client may not remember the therapist's words but will remember the connection or alliance that was forged. This statement speaks to the fact that fundamentally it is the working relationship which drives change. Therefore, it is extremely important that you find a therapist who strives to "get you."

I have had the opportunity to assist people in obtaining their personal goals since 1994.

Congratulations for taking a positive step to move forward with your life! Are you courageous, ready for change, tired of the same problems keeping you from happiness and need support about where to go from here? Are you struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma/grief, depression, negative thoughts, sleeplessness, meaninglessness? Are you finding yourself in dead-end relationships or jobs? Do you struggle with chronic pain or other chronic health issues that you just can't resolve? Have you tried working with others who haven't helped? As a holistic psychotherapist, life & health coach, I can provide an effective alternative.

Taking the step to start therapy can be difficult and filled with mixed emotions; everybody deserves the best chance in the game of life.I'm here to help you play the cards you've been dealt-just with a little more intention and strategy. I am a LCMHC, CRC, and a facilitator for MHFA. My years of experience providing individual, child/couple/family, and completing various psychological assessments allows me to keep my focus on my client, their needs, and the ebbs and flows of life. It is my hope to help the person's life become more manageable, instead of life managing the person.

Are you dealing with depression? Is anxiety keeping you from reaching your full potential? Is anger getting in the way of relationships? Are you in the need for an unbiased third party for couples counseling? I also specialize in acute trauma and ADHD. I work with children, adolescents and adults. Life is all about change whether we want it or not. Life can be difficult at many phases. I will assist you in discovering your strengths and supports and how to use them to solve problems in your life. Are you ready to focus on the solution?

I primarily work with adolescents/young adults going through a variety of problems (depression, anxiety, substance abuse, etc). Over the years I have specialized in working with teens who are self-harming and having a difficult time adjusting to life's stressors. I do not work with just the adolescent/child. I feel it is a family issue that must be addressed by helping the entire family unit build supports and effective coping mechanisms together to move forward in a healthy manner. I specialize in working with Borderline Personality Disorder.

If you are wondering what to do now that SHIfT has happened, (that's my acronym for life has changed (shifted) and you don't know what to do), if you're feeling scared and anxious, or so down in the dumps thinking you'll never feel joy again, let's talk. I know that sometimes we all need help to cope. I have helped clients feel better, sometimes as quickly as three sessions, empowering them to help themselves. Clients say that what they appreciate most about working with me is my compassion, understanding, and ability to truly listen.
