I work with folks who have anxiety, depression, trauma or PTSD, grief or other difficulty. Frequently, clients would like a calmer, more peaceful mind or would like help achieving their goals. Clients may have had high stress experiences or difficult childhoods. Therapy can help you find your voice, identify your strengths and resources, and improve coping skills that help you make progress toward your goals. Clients may want to improve their relationships with others or learn to live with less self-blame. Healing is possible with support, compassion, and understanding in a nonjudgmental counseling relationship.
Counseling may help reduce symptoms and possibly smooth some of those rocky patches you experience . I have helped clients learn better ways of coping that enhance their mental wellness. I am client centered, nonjudgmental, and accept you where you are. A therapeutic relationship can help you heal. My experience includes over 14 years in mental health.
Reaching out for help is not easy and I respect the difficulty in doing so. Learning to acknowledge and allow a variety of feelings can be a challenging experience for some. You can call or email me to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation to see whether we are a good fit for the work you want to do.

In therapy, we first work towards safety and understanding symptoms as adaptive. Frequently, symptoms developed as a strategy to survive the circumstances you were in. Often connecting current emotions to past experiences can help. The goal is to increase your ability to recognize and self-soothe the distressing emotions affecting you. Identifying and utilizing your existing resources is crucial.

I use trauma informed therapy to validate and support the client. Helping clients have curiosity about feelings, without judgment can help those who may become overwhelmed by emotions. I provide education on a client's unique problems and issues to further their understanding.
