Struggling with depression and anxiety that is impacting your relationships? Right now, we are in unprecedented times. People are needing additional support.

I've spent many years evaluating and observing people. What I've found is that many of their symptoms, anxiety, depression, substance abuse or other addiction issues, etc. usually stem from one or more traumatic experiences they've had. I define a traumatic experience as any event in a person's life that causes one to make a person feel unsafe. What happens next is that even if people don't remember in their mind, their bodies usually do and this causes a person to feel unsafe no matter where they are.

Our ideal clients would be those who enjoy a more philosophical approach to better understanding him or herself. We work with the whole age spectrum, and we enjoy guiding clients toward a better understanding of his or her purpose of being in the world. Specifically, the issues that we specialize in include grief, trauma, spiritual enlightenment, coping skills, personal transformation, wellness, brainspotting, and changing one's behaviors through changing one's thought process. Regardless of the perceived assets or handicaps that one enters the world with, he or she must still find a way in order to survive and hopefully, thrive.

Seeking therapy is often a reflection of significant discomfort in your life. Maybe you feel that your emotions have become difficult to manage, or perhaps you feel numb to them. You might feel stuck in your relationships or job, or perhaps you have experienced a significant event and are having difficulty adjusting to or making sense of it. These are just a few of the many situations that therapy can help you navigate by taking a curious approach to your thoughts and feelings and deepening your understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your mind.

I believe that counseling is an ongoing process of self-acceptance and personal growth. Counseling can be beneficial for situational challenges, mental health struggles, and personal exploration. I provide an environment free from judgment, biases, or agendas; while also cultivating a trusting environment to help clients feel supported and understood. I believe that the client and counselor work together to create client goals and change; change is best nourished when a client is given compassion, grace, and understanding. I also provide client-centered play therapy for children (ages 2 and up) to assist with processing emotions.

People often come to psychotherapy in search of more peace; to work through personal challenges and/or relieve pain from sources such as anxiety, depression, feelings of inadequacy, loss, or addiction. They may be struggling in their relationships or moving through a profound life transition. For some, their faith has been shaken in some significant way. Whatever the motivation might be for seeking professional help, I care deeply about assisting clients in gaining insight, education, self-awareness, and strength. Everyone has challenges. Working collaboratively, we can achieve the goals most desired for a healthier life.

I work with individuals, couples and families who are seeking healing and a deeper understanding of the factors that influence their lives. I have worked with people recovering from abuse, trauma and grief, families with members on the Autism spectrum, couples trying to rediscover one another, families who are trying to start living in healthier ways and many others with a variety of issues. Each person is unique and part of a larger system that has helped them become who they are. I provide tools to help understand those systems, and develop behaviors that lead to greater self efficacy and a richer life experience.

I have extensive experience working with a wide variety of issues with children, adolescents, and adults, which include anxiety/panic, depression, anger, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, sleep disorders, self-harm, grief, chronic pain, trauma, and PTSD. The foundation of my work recognizes that the mind, body and spirit are equally important in healing the person. Because there is a constant interaction between these 3 entities, each has a significant influence on the other. When all 3 entities are addressed, optimal and sustaining changes can be achieved. I enjoy working with all issues when using this approach to help you achieve your goals.

It takes courage to ask for help and I commend you for taking the initiative. In a very comfortable and supportive environment, I will help you to create the life that you want by providing you with specific skills/tools that are designed to be regularly practiced and applied in order for change to occur. I will also share the neurobiology behind the suggested new principles so that you understand why they are successful. I work with adults and mature adolescents only who are truly ready to invest in their personal growth. Living presently and without stress, fear, guilt, and worry is absolutely possible.

My goal is for therapy to be a collaborative process to facilitate change, and I use an integrative approach to help clients explore and achieve their desired goals. I advocate for therapy to be a safe space for clients to come as they are, process their experiences, and promote personal growth. I value authenticity and meet clients where they are at while gently challenging them to make shifts for forward progress. I have a passion for working with healthcare workers, first responders, service members and dependents, college students and young adults, and high achievers, but I enjoy working with adults of all ages and backgrounds.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
