You know your patterns, what triggers you, how you're getting in your own way - but can't seem to translate that insight into a change in how your mind and body respond when you're under stress. You want more confidence and clarity in your life, but self-criticism and anxiety seem to always be below the surface. Maybe you've been in therapy before, but are still struggling to find lasting relief from trauma, anxiety & relationship concerns.

Approaching life's changes is often accompanied by high levels of distress and feelings of being lost. I like working with persons in transition because of the tremendous opportunity for real change and growth that I have seen take place. I can help you tap into your inherent wisdom so you can walk with confidence on your own path. I work with individuals and couples during mid-life transitions, career changes (or a growing need for one), relationship changes, ongoing mood problems, excessive anxiety, and stresses associated with changes in religion/spiritual outlook.

There are many reasons people seek counseling. In general, clients are looking for an enhanced sense of self- understanding and acceptance. This process includes understanding of how past experiences have shaped the way you view yourself as well as your understanding of how you relate to others. Therapy provides a safe place to explore reactions, thoughts, and feelings about people in your life as well as yourself. It allows you the opportunity to practice new ways of interacting and, when ready, to try these in other relationships. Counseling is a chance for you to work on achieving healthy emotional and psychological wellbeing.

Everyone faces challenges in life, but when those challenges start to feel constant, it might be time to seek the support you need to navigate them. Taking the first step toward counseling is hard, but the fact that you're here shows you're ready to take the next step.

Seeking counseling can be difficult to do and lends itself to being vulnerable in front of someone you do not know. An initial goal of mine is building comfort between myself and the client so that they can speak about the things that they struggle with. Only when the client can feel this level of comfort and safety can the best work be done. I work to get each client from where they are when meeting for the first time, to where they ultimately want to be.

At The Care Center I help clients dealing with issues including depression, anxiety, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, previous traumas, and life adjustment issues. I also help marriages or couples dealing with infidelity, blended family issues, conflict, communication issues, and couples in crisis. My philosophy is to find the roots of the problems and resolve them rather than simply helping learn awkward coping skills. At The Care Center you won't learn empathic/active listening, I statements or deep breathing techniques. We work on healing wounds and rebuilding trust. When you do these things you don't need more "coping skills."

Whether this is your first time seeking treatment for eating and body image concerns, or a return to therapy, I am here to walk with you on your journey to recovery. I have walked beside individuals at various points of eating disorder recovery from outpatient to partial hospitalization, and I bring that understanding and compassion with me to EBHA. I also work with individuals who struggle with depression and anxiety or struggling with stressors in life. A key component to my approach is identifying unhelpful beliefs and behavioral patterns that are no longer useful or meeting your needs.
