With enhanced clarity via our sessions, we can find ways for you to feel better about your life and to live the life you were meant to live.
I can be of help to you if you have any of the following issues: intrapersonal; relationships; communication; establishing and maintaining boundaries; emotional support; self-esteem; management of anger; living within your financial means; addictions; grief and loss; chronic pain; peace of mind. In 1976, I began my career in counseling as a school counselor and have a good track record with individuals of all ages. As a "seasoned" counselor (read "older"), I have helped individuals, couples, and families successfully navigate the issues that contribute to their pain and distress. You and I will work together as a team.

I fully believe that we must understand where we came from to better understand how we deal with situations today. Our past has made us who we are today, and we respond to our needs by what we have learned from our past. I've spent the last 24 years trying to better understand how to support people as they learn who they want to be and work towards their goals. I try to make a safe and comfortable setting where we can talk about what you want in life and how to achieve it. You will find me to be pretty laid back and easy to talk to.

Each individual is the expert in their own life.
I enjoy working with young adults going through transitions and adjustment issues. These young adults may struggle with moving forward due to unresolved childhood trauma, or an individual may struggle to establish better boundaries within their interpersonal/intimate relationships, or even an individual struggling to meet their goals due to a substance use disorder they are facing. I enjoy working with these individuals, especially if they have moderate-high motivation, but I am also willing to assist patients in the population who are struggling with motivation altogether.

You will not walk this journey of self-discovery alone because life can be very “I’m over it” at a times .
Give me a break, are you serious?, What now? No one understands, I'm anxious..I'm depressed. How many times have you said these exact words this week? I sure can relate-and if you can, you’re in the right place. Welcome. Self-empowerment, radical acceptance & authentic human connection will be the cornerstone of our work. I utilize a strength-based humanistic approach to guide us...but healing doesn't happen via theory. It lies within you - your hopes, hardships, successes & infinite wisdom. Sometimes we'll laugh. Often, we'll cry. But either way...

Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control us, or be anxious/angry all the time I want you to be free of emotional pain, able to deal with life on life's terms, and find meaning and purpose in work, family, friendships and all other life areas.
A lot of people see therapy as a one-sided conversation with little opportunity for interaction or getting to experience each other as real people. I owe it to you to be as real as possible. I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible and experiencing yourself in new ways. I do not believe therapy has to always be a painful experience. I understand that making that call to a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment to call and see how I can help.

I can offer a sense of peace and hope that there is actually someone in your life that is willing to listen.
My ideal client is ready to think big. They are ready to recognize their power by becoming more aware of unhealthy behavior patterns and belief systems in relationships and within themselves that are keeping them from aligning with who they truly are. They are willing to take small steps at a time and understand that forming better habits takes consistency, experiences and possibly saying "no." They want to be heard by someone that has the mental space to listen. They want to learn how to live in the present and learn how to love unconditionally.

Throughout my 10 years working in mental health, I have learned how important it is to our healing to be connected in heart and body. I believe building a better understanding of this mind-body connection and the impact it can have on both our physical and mental health is critical in symptom management, emotional regulation, stress management, overall health and wellness, and navigating our everyday life in this world.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
