Counselor, PCLC, MS

I use an integrated approach to counseling, drawing from Internal
Family
Systems, Attachment Theory, and Emotion Focused Therapy.
Currently accepting new clients- I work with a variety of life issues, from trauma and grief to depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and everyday stressors in-between. My hope for our work together is to help my clients develop a deeper sense of knowing and trusting themselves. I strive to provide a space to explore how and where a person may feel stuck in order to move forward with a better sense of awareness. I believe when self awareness grows, we are able to show up differently in our relationships, work, desires, and lives. I also believe change is possible when we have a trusting therapist/client relationship to build off.

Life transitions, the demands of running a
family
, raising kids, a high pressure and stressful job, money concerns, and children’s needs can all erode the time and energy you have to put into your relationship. Life and relationships can be tough. What is needed to make it work often feels overwhelming, unclear, and giving up may seem like the only alternative. We need connection. We need love. We need a path. Without it, the inevitable challenges of life become incredibly difficult. But right now, you might not be thinking that.

While there are thousands of quality parenting, relationship, and self-help books, finding the strategies that actually make sense and work for you, your
family
, and your relationships is daunting to say the least.
Relationships are the center of our lives: Depression often leads to a deep sense of loneliness. Anxiety drives the people around us crazy. Stress impacts interactions with those we love. At Center Counseling, we think about people in the context of their relationships and we work to help our clients feel more whole within themselves and in their relationships. We work with Couples, Parents, Adults, College Students, Middle- & High-School students, and Families to build healthy skills and strengthen connections.

If you are looking for change, balance, growth, or healing, counseling may be the right fit for you! Individuals who find a safe and knowledgeable therapist can find endless opportunities for personal growth. In therapy we often redefine strength to include vulnerability in order to connect, heal, and move forward. By fostering this connection we hope to not only survive, but thrive in life! I provide trauma-informed service to help clients heal, grow, and break down barriers to change. Therapy is client-centered and provided at a safe and comfortable pace.

Our work will incorporate any or all of the following: mindfulness, somatic interventions, inter-personal neurobiology,
family
of origin work, compassion focused, acceptance, authentic dialogue, EMDR, IFS informed therapy, yoga, movement, music, nature, community, and more.
The most important part of therapy is that you connect/feel safe with your therapist, and finding that therapist can be difficult, especially right now. Call or send me an email to arrange a free consultation and lets see if we think we're a good fit. Trust yourself, ask questions, you've come this far, you will find someone that seems right for you. Life is hard at the moment and you're probably ready for something to change, but what? I advocate for fierce joy, tolerating uncertainty and loss, digging deep, genuine relationships, holding ourselves accountable, playing to strengths, & being compassionate about our challenges.

I use IFS (Internal
Family
Systems) therapy as a powerful tool for addressing patterns and behaviors that are no longer working for a person or a couple.
I have been studying and working in mental health for 23 years since 1999. Emotional suffering due to relational conflict, anxiety and depression are some of the main reasons people seek therapy. When people engage fully in the therapeutic process, they can often experience moments of transformation that can be profound and or subtle in which their experience of suffering is either alleviated or their attitude towards their situation shifts in meaningful ways. My training and experiences as a clinical psychologist can help you to reduce your pain and how you relate to the difficult experiences or people in your life.

My approach as a human is to create a safe, inclusive, and collaborative space. I have developed a counseling practice rooted in finding meaning and purpose in one’s life. My passion for supporting others has been deeply influenced over 10 years of working with young adults aging out of foster care and youth experiencing housing instability. In addition to individual and agency practice, I have had the pleasure of facilitating fly-fishing retreats for men with cancer over the last four years. I’m interested in building upon an individual’s strengths, providing choice and freedom, and utilizing their self-determination.

Whether you are an individual, couple,
family
, or teen, reach out to me at Center Counseling to schedule a meeting.
[ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS] Do you question the relationship you're in? Do you wonder why conflict sometimes feels so difficult? Does it sometimes feel like there are patterns there that you just can't see or understand, but that maybe if you could, they wouldn't have to continue? Sometimes we reach a point where we are ready for change; where what we have been doing in our life and in our relationships, doesn’t feel good anymore. I will help you get clear on what the patterns are AND where they come from and how to shift them.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
