When you are overwhelmed and not sure that you are giving your best to your work, relationships and family, the self doubt can be overwhelming. Maybe you feel misunderstood. Through, the "Gentle Listening" of therapy I provide, you can feel cared for and decrease your anxiety, as you face difficult decisions. In time, you can again find joy in the little things, feel love in your relationships, satisfaction in your career and peace with your children. I believe we all have our own answers, but sometimes we need to have someone help us find them. I am always honored when I am that person.

I think of therapy as a journey. I see my role as walking along side my client, shedding light on the past, helping make connections between events, thoughts, actions, and feelings. Working collaboratively, we make use of these insights to develop new perspectives on the past and the present. At the end of our time together, I want my client to feel more secure and confident moving forward under their own power, liking who they are and what they have to offer the world.

What type of Clayton mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
