Existential Therapists in Sun City Summerlin, Las Vegas, NV

I am a student therapist intern now accepting new clients in Las Vegas. We are all aware of the impact emotions can have on our lives, so I am excited to help you navigate through this emotional time in your life. As a student therapist, I am working closely with a supervisor to offer you the best treatment possible and walk beside you while you get on the path you are seeking. I enjoy working with children, individuals, and families, and this is a safe place for you to lay out your plan and gain the support you need to achieve your goals.

It takes courage to admit that what you've been doing is no longer working for you or your loved ones. Together we can explore new ways to cope and make the changes you ultimately desire. You have already taken the first steps to make a change just by acknowledging that you are no longer comfortable with the way things are. I'd like the chance to meet you and answer any questions you may have.

Therapeutically, I use an integrative approach geared towards understanding self, specifically what drives one's thoughts and behaviors. I have been trained as a Clinical Psychologist, and I help identify automatic thoughts that lead to specific ideas and feelings, as well as understanding how our thoughts and behaviors are fueled by former messages that have been consistently reinforced. At the end of the day, my practice is shaped by uncovering a deeper understanding of self, discovering how our environment has constructed us, and determining what road we can choose in order to reconnect with self, others, and life.

Thirty years of experience helps me work with you from a compassionate, humanistic perspective. You will set your own goals, gain support, challenge your "auto pilot" thinking and overcome what keeps you stuck. Lowering anxiety and depression, getting through a break up, changing careers, dealing with couples' issues, fine tuning parenting skills, managing stress.These are just some of the typical issues I work on with my clients. I am certified in the treatment of anxiety, and have added cutting edge Virtual Reality tools that offer clinically proven benefits. I value all my clients and their choice to lean into their struggles.

I would like to take this opportunity to share my process of therapy, as a blended view that embraces the whole person’s, body, mind, spirit and emotions. I place value upon the healing relationship that looks beyond simply treating a disease or disorder. A philosophy that views each person is whole but may need additional support to understand the total person. It is my philosophy that optimal health and mental wellness are connected to all areas of your life. I believe the client is always the expert on their own story and to have a respectful, informed and kind partnership that honors their own personal experiences.

Perhaps you feel overwhelmed and depleted from being pulled in many directions. You want to say no but find yourself saying yes instead, fearing that family and friends will get angry or be disappointed if you say no. You worry it may jeopardize your relationships if you do. Each time you think about setting a boundary, you feel anxious, or guilty, and sometimes even selfish for considering it. You want to live your own life. However, prioritizing yourself and honoring your own needs seems almost impossible. At times, you feel stuck, unable to know what you want, or focus on your life goals and dreams because you have little energy

If you're using avoidance, food, substances, or just keeping busy around the clock to cope, and the future seems a bit dim, remember, there's hope. In those moments of overwhelm, irritation, or even panic, it's a signal to pause and rethink where you're headed. Together, let's rediscover balance and regain control, cultivating a sense of hope and purpose. I have openings on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays.

Welcome! You've made it this far on your mental health journey, and maybe you are wondering what the rest of the journey might look like. The truth is: therapy is different for everyone. Some of my previous clients have enjoyed our time together talking about the events of the past week or some changes they are contemplating. Other clients have used our time together to review and process deep emotional scars, with the intention of trying to create a meaningful way to move forward towards their goals. This journey is about you and where you would like to go.

I am dedicated to a holistic and person-centered methodology that incorporates the transformative insights of Carl Jung and Virginia Satir, alongside a yogic viewpoint. This synthesis aims to foster a deepened self-awareness and a harmonious body-mind connection through the integration of mindfulness principles and somatic therapy techniques, tailored to meet your unique therapeutic goals. The essence of my approach is rooted in the conviction that nurturing a sincere and empathetic rapport is crucial for achieving meaningful personal development.

My practice supports authentic living. I hope to join with persons and offer my understanding of where they are. Such genuine contact encourages awareness of possibilities that otherwise remain just out of reach. Relationship is central; foundations of healthy relationships include trust, respect, honesty and risk-taking. Persons I sit with commonly say I am supportive and challenging, non-judgmental and honest. Persons with previous therapy experience say that our play together is "different" than their other therapy relationships, perhaps because I fundamentally believe persons are good and have inherent power to grow and change.

I use various counseling theories based on your individual needs to empower you to achieve your own unique goals.

As a master's level student therapist in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, my passion is aiding people in self-discovery, boosting self-esteem, and managing life's shifts, anxiety, depression, and relationship health. I work with Adults, Teens, Children ages 10 & up, Couples, and Families. I use an empathetic approach grounded in teaching self-compassion. This belief guides my practice, empowering clients to recognize their resilience, enhance self-worth, and navigate life confidently.

Romantic relationships are one of the hardest things that you will ever do in your life. Communication problems, arguing, bickering can lead you to have the same type of fight day after day. You both could be using attacking or harsh words in these moments of disconnection. This leads you to more hurt and pain. Learning how to work through any problem that exists in your relationship is hardworking but possible. Issues that you might have could be letting your partner down or not meeting their expectations, money issues, parenting disagreements, lack of sex, or even working through an affair.

Trauma work is an intricate process that requires consistency, safety, and patience. I believe trauma is complex and impacts each person differently. I also believe unresolved trauma tends to operate in the shadow of our psyche, often causing us to function in a state of reaction rather than response, and thus we may feel a sense of lack of control in our lives. We may have been dealt a hand in life that we didn’t choose, so we made sense of it best we could with the tools that were available at the time.
