You are not alone. Struggling to follow through, make choices, motivate yourself, or feeling disorganized, impulsive, confused, struggling with emotions, thoughts and relationships? Think you may have ADHD, depression or anxiety and struggling to understand what is going on or explain to others how you feel? There is help. We help those that struggle at home, school or work. Building self-esteem, clear thinking and healthy ways to handle stress. You don't have to struggle with fear that stops you from moving forward anymore. We work with frustrated parents, sad kids, mad teens and couples living on different planets.

My ideal client is between 15 and 70 years old and possibly struggling with an addiction, depression, anxiety, relationships or other mental health issues. Let me help you find yourself and become the person you always hoped you could be!

Do you often find yourself going back and forth about making a change in your head? Is part of you wanting to make that change and part of you not feeling sure or quite ready yet? This is all part of the change process, and you are probably further along than you realize! Sometimes a new perspective and new tools can help us "get off the seesaw" and get closer to the life we want to have. I often see clients who are dealing with trauma, substance use, anxiety, or depression. I work to build a space of non-judgment and acceptance so my clients can be seen exactly as they are without fear, so we can find the path forward together.

I love working with adolescents, young adults, families, and couples!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner whose approach to therapy is individualized based on my clients' needs and personal background. I will establish a safe and secure therapeutic environment, free of judgement and pre-conceived notions. I strive to provide you with a therapeutic experience that is both genuine and provides unconditional acceptance to help gain your trust as I help you develop the skills needed to reach your goals and be successful in your therapeutic journey.

Are you feeling stressed or depressed? Perhaps you are struggling with a specific issue, feeling lost, or maybe you're feeling completely overwhelmed? Life can indeed be overwhelming. It sometimes diminishes our ability to see the solutions to the problems we are facing. There are many ways to deal with life's challenges. Sometimes the ways we choose to deal with them are unhealthy or counterproductive.

I have approximately twenty years of experience working with adolescents, adults and families dealing with issues pertaining to depression and anxiety disorders, past trauma, stress and anger management, family and relationship difficulties, behavioral problems, positive decision making, and grief/loss. As the wife of a retired Air Force veteran, I have a comprehensive understanding of the issues and difficulties facing service members and their families. I also have extensive experience addressing client trauma and aspire to assist clients in reprocessing their trauma so that they can lead full and healthy lives.

I work with Men and Women when Anger, Fear or Depression is the only feeling they seem to recognize. It's my aim to help people who know all about Conflict, but too little about Conflict Resolution. I provide Relationship and Individual Coaching for teenagers as they navigate through the complex feelings of being pulled between family, friends and themselves. I work with adolescents and adults struggling against ADHD and for those whose ADHD and ADD has blossomed into Anxiety, OCD, Depression of Addictions. Together, I work with Couples, Families and Teenagers helping them with the Relationships and Communication Process.

I work with individuals with a wide range of concerns. My clinical specialties and interests include disordered eating, body image, obesity and weight loss, LGBTQ, gender identity, phase of life transitions, grief/loss, relationships, assertive communication, issues related to trauma/adverse life experiences, holistic health and wellness, self-compassion, and promoting self-awareness and insight. My background includes significant experience in the delivery of behavioral health care including individual psychotherapy and inpatient, intensive-outpatient, and outpatient groups. In addition to my experience with psychotherapy services, I also complete psychological assessments, provide supervision to pre-doctoral psychology interns, and consultation services.

It's the perfect time to create the life and relationships you want! Therapy doesn't have to be an anxiety producing activity. Long-lasting change takes patience and time to accomplish. However, I understand that hard work is necessary to achieve the timely results clients appreciate, so I am direct in my approach. I love helping people enjoy their lives more fully and accomplish their goals by helping them decrease their depression and anxiety symptoms and increase their self-esteem. I also enjoy helping couples work through the problems that are keeping them from having thriving relationships.
