Our lives can get extraordinarily challenging and burdensome at times, and we may struggle to cope with the things that are being thrown our way. That can lead to various difficulties and affect our ability to enjoy our lives. As a counselor, I try to demystify the counseling process; in that counseling is a process of self-exploration and at times that can be extremely hard as we discuss issues or concerns you find difficulty talking about. But, with time as we work together, my goal is to support you in your process toward healing and growth.

Someone close to you died. Your world turned upside down. You feel alone and “crazy,” and you just want to “get over it.” You feel like you’re doing this grief thing wrong. You just want normal back. The loss has made you question many things about yourself and your life. No one else seems to understand what you’re going through. The truth is, grief is a natural, normal response to loss. You don’t have to be alone nor are you “crazy.” Grief is a unique journey for each person. There is no right or wrong way to do it.

Congrats on taking a step towards positive and lasting change! We all deserve to experience that feeling of peace, comfort, and joy that lasts!

When a person is truly dedicated to working towards change, healing, and growth; amazing things can happen. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, but mental health is just as important as physical health. As a therapist, I am strongly dedicated to breaking stigma and normalizing mental health treatment. Whether you are going through a difficult transition, struggling with a substance use or mental health issue, or just working on becoming a happier and more stable version of yourself: I would be privileged to assist you on your journey. My client criteria is simple: be open, be willing, and trust the process.

Helen Keller wrote, "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it." For those in emotional pain, life can be a dark and lonely place. When we suffer, we lose touch with our core of strength and well-being. But the resilience of the human heart offers hope for healing. I will provide reassurance through a strong bond of trust and non-judgmental acceptance. In a compassionate and supportive atmosphere, I will help you find your way back to peace and well-being.

I am often a good fit for clients who want to integrate a spiritual perspective into counseling. By "spiritual" I mean living authentically, finding deep purpose, forgiving oneself and others, seeing the sacred in the ordinary, and having a daily spiritual practice that keeps growth going long after therapy concludes. With individuals and couples I am known for using creative images, humor, and timeless wisdom to support your growth. Each course of therapy is as unique as the individual or couple seeking help. I'll get to know you and together we'll create an an alliance that supports your goals for personal and spiritual growth.

As the result of my work with a wide array of individuals with a variety of presenting mental health needs, I believe true healing must be viewed from an all-encompassing therapeutic approach that considers the whole person. This includes aspects such as their identity/sense of self, upbringing, traumas, interpersonal relationships, personality, as well as their presenting environmental circumstances. Therapeutic goals include helping suffering persons to find meaning/purpose in their lives, develop more effective ways of communicating/connecting with others, and to critically evaluate their beliefs, values, and choices.

Many people struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma. They can't find relief for their symptoms, and every aspect of their life is affected. They want to lead a better life for themselves but do not know how. As a professional clinical counselor, I have helped many people find answers and improve their quality of life. My clients describe me as caring and compassionate but also straightforward and action oriented. I help people find and accentuate their strengths while letting them decide what is best for them. I also work a lot with trauma and am trained in EMDR.

I believe that healing can occur when we feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or self-exploration, open and genuine connections can allow us to grow and build the skills needed for change. I approach therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together to increase understanding and awareness. A strong therapeutic relationship can be a powerful tool to promote healing, and I aim to create a safe environment that allows clients to be their authentic selves.

My therapy style is empathetic, insightful, reflective, humorous and goal-affirming. I have always had a "quirky" sense of humor and I love that I can bring that into session with me. Sometimes being able to laugh or to see the absurdity of life shakes loose the obstacles and anxiety. My initial goal is to connect with you and your experiences in your world, ask questions, provide feedback, and use interventions to rebuild and reinforce your sense of self and your place in the universe.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
