I am the clinical psychologist and director of a team of treatment providers who offer an integrated approach to mental health therapies. We strive to provide empirically established and structured mental health treatments while integrating psychotherapy, psychiatric medication management, and counseling. We are scientist-practitioners who pursue long-term positive changes for our patients and we believe that the ultimate goal of clinical work is not only the alleviation of psychopathology and symptoms, but the realization of long-term aspirations, the pursuit of meaning, and interpersonal satisfaction.

Life can be hard, and for many, the last several years have been particularly hard. Sometimes it is traumatic and tragic, other times it's overwhelming and confusing, and sometimes it just feels plain blah. Over the years, counseling has played an important role in my own life, helping me navigate the ups and downs. In turn, I have had the chance to walk with people during some of the darkest and most challenging seasons of their lives. My hope is to continue to journey with others and be a healing presence in their lives.

The clients with which I work best are those interested in a balance of exploration and practical solutions. I have heard it said that, "the past does not matter except for the ways in which it impacts the present." I promise I will not dive into the depths just to seem deep but also I promise not to stay cozy and comfortable if that is feeding an unhealthy status quo. I have no hang-ups about what a person's background is or how they present. I only look to help a person define for themselves "a life worth living" and then figure out how to have it.

I specialize in working with children, teens, women, and families impacted by anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, trauma, and major life transitions. As a parent myself, I understand firsthand the worries that come with supporting a child while caring for yourself. Parents often reach out when their child is struggling emotionally, behaviorally, or at school and family life feels tense or reactive. Women may be navigating abuse recovery, relationship trauma, divorce, or chronic stress and feel exhausted or disconnected. Clients seek me for practical support that fosters calmer homes, greater balance, and connection.

Hello, and thank you for taking the time and having the courage to seek out a counselor! To help you find your best fit, I work with adults, as individuals, couples, and groups. I work with people dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, grief/loss, suicide/self-harm, parenting, self-esteem, and abuse/neglect. While I specialize in Christian Counseling, I also work with many people who prefer not to incorporate their faith in the therapeutic process. My style tends to lean toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), helping people overcome self-defeating thought patterns. I’ve been in private practice for 20 years.

I believe those seeking therapy are usually in need of three things- help, healing and hope. I make it my mission to attend to all three needs in every session. I will help you think outside of the box; because viewing situations from a different perspective will allow for healing and the ability to move forward with life.

Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) Therapists
What should I expect from rational emotive behavior therapy?
The therapist will work with the individual to recognize rigid thought patterns that sabotage goals and set them back. The objective is to identify, challenge and reframe negative thoughts and enable an individual to understand that they possess control over their emotions and their behavior. This therapy often emphasizes the use of reasoning and self-direction.

Is rational emotive behavior therapy effective?
Rational emotive behavior therapy is evidence-based and is highly effective. It helps a person reframe self-defeating or catastrophizing thoughts and gives them tools to approach a range of circumstances they may encounter post-therapy as well. REBT can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.

When do I know if I need treatment with rational emotive behavior therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with rigid, unreasonable thoughts that dwell in negativity, they may feel stuck. A rational emotive behavior therapist can help a person examine and change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior. This concise and concrete therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

How long does rational emotive behavior therapy last?
REBT therapy treatment is short-term and focused in nature. It can last for a set number of sessions, ending within a few weeks or months. Like any type of therapy, however, sessions depend on the individual, as well as the severity of their condition or problem. The individual may wish to ask the therapist about typical progress and how long they expect treatment to take.
