Life is often really tough. My goal is to provide a safe space for my clients to share their story, their struggles, their victories and their goals so they can feel less alone and also have a therapeutic partner to sort through what they'd like to understand better about themselves in order to take new steps towards wellness and growth. Being understood by a compassionate person is strengthening, and so is having a therapeutic partner to help you think about what you're thinking about and what you'd rather be focusing on.

Sometimes life challenges us with difficult circumstances and painful emotions. At these times we may not be able to see our way out with any clarity. A compassionate guide can be helpful. I have a deep respect for one's capacity to heal and I invite the integration of mind, body, spirit and emotions into this process. I explore with you the themes in your life that create blocks to feeling centered and fulfilled. While it is important to hear what you are saying, it is also important to hear what you are not saying, providing a deeper kind of listening.

Hello! I want to thank you for taking a step towards finding a therapist that is right for you. It is my belief that everyone can benefit from exploring ways to address, refine, and improve their mental health. In the same way that a physical ailment might stop you from doing something you love, challenges to your mental health can do the same. I have a passion for walking alongside individuals & couples seeking explorative life change, whether it is addressing an old concern, exploring current issues, or simply setting yourself up for success moving forward. It is my goal to empower clients in seeking healing and resilience.

Counseling can serve many different purposes--it can help us gain understanding into ourselves, gain understanding in how we navigate our world and relationships, it can help us heal from past hurts. I strive to offer a therapeutic setting where clients feel welcome and safe to process challenges in life and to gain perspective. For some clients building skills and tools can be helpful in overcoming struggles. I provide an avenue to equip clients in this way. I have been a counselor for over 30 years, and believe people are uniquely created with God given potential to live a victorious life.

Relationship and sexual issues can be hard to talk about. You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in cycles that no longer serve you, or simply unsure of how to move forward. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, past trauma, unwanted sexual behaviors or sexual problems, you're not alone in feeling like things shouldn't be this hard. You want clarity. You want relief. You want to feel like yourself again—or maybe discover who that is for the first time. My role is to walk alongside you as we explore what’s getting in the way of the life you want to live.

I am passionate about working with individuals/couples in relationships and personal growth. Many of my clients are adults facing challenges in romantic or family relationships. This includes conflict, sexual issues/addiction or infidelity. I also specialize in working with adults on issues such as: identifying life purpose, career choices, stress/burnout, loneliness, depression and anxiety. The goal for all my clients is to find freedom, peace, balance and connection. By the time we've completed therapy, clients often tell me that they have found a deeper understanding of themselves and peace in their relationships.

Life can be hard, it can be even harder when we are stuck to reacting to our own pain with judgmental thoughts , unhelpful behaviors and end up caught in a place we do not want to be. As a counselor I have had the honor of working with great individuals who have experinced depression, anxiety , trauma and substance use struggles . Helping individuals help themselves work through pain and be able to discover, and more deeply connect to what is important to them is truly meaningful for me.

I believe finding meaning and purpose is important throughout life, and therapy can be a supportive space to explore these questions, especially during times of change and uncertainty.

Everyone has experienced trauma: either "small-t trauma" such as grief/loss, verbal abuse/bullying, injuries/illnesses, or instability in the home or "large-T trauma" such as rape, assault, physical/sexual abuse, or debilitating injury/illness. As a result of trauma, some individuals experience disruptive memories and/or emotional distress from current situations. I assist clients in gaining insight on their situations as well as the development of specific skills and behaviors that will help to reduce emotional distress. I believe that every client has the ability to heal from trauma.
