Teletherapy for 37830

Life throws curve balls that often knock us down, but painful and difficult experiences do not have to define you. Instead, these experiences can be a starting point to creating a more authentic, connected version of yourself. Whether you’re struggling personally, professionally or relationally, my Person-Centered and Integrative approach will provide you the tools you need to rebuild balance and regain control over your life.

I can help you and your child learn how to regulate emotions, develop and maintain meaningful relationships and manage the regular and acute stresses of life.

Has exhaustion and overload become normal? Do you spend your days chasing after the expectations and approval of others? Do you find yourself avoiding the hard conversations—or the hard decisions that you know would improve your life ten-fold? Maybe it’s time to rediscover your compass. Maybe it’s time to live the life you’ve been wanting. I work with leaders in families and organizations who want to develop greater emotional maturity (clarity + courage + skill) in challenging situations, and to realize more meaningful connection in the relationships that matter most.

Therapy works best when client and therapist take a team approach. I provide people with a safe and secure way to obtain support for life's challenges and stressors. Together we find solutions to those stressors. I assist others to develop life skills that lead to new confidence in their ability to cope. I see people of all ages and severity of issues. I support individuals, families, couples and groups to achieve their goals.

"What do I do?" you ask. You're feeling uncertain, scared, alone, worried. Maybe you're a parent, and your child has faced something you never imagined would ever happen to your child. Perhaps it seems your family is falling apart: your marriage, your relationship with your children...You may wonder if there is any hope, any chance for your child to come back from this, your family to heal.

Many people seek therapy because they want answers to their problems, for example, a diagnosis, a treatment plan, etc. It can be enormously helpful to have an understanding of one's problems and coping patterns. The initial phase of any treatment is to develop a clear understanding of the problem and possible interventions, including behavioral and lifestyle changes, etc. At the same time, change is rarely the product of finding a specific intervention, but is often the process of finding better questions. People grow and change through relationships; and psychotherapy is a special kind of relationship that facilitates this process.

Trusting others can be difficult when you have been betrayed, neglected or abused. If you or your child is struggling with emotions or relationships, please allow me to help. By tailoring my interventions to your specific strengths and needs, we can work together to discover your potential and allow you to gain the peace and confidence that you need. This therapeutic relationship is non-judgmental and supportive of the unique person that you are.

Reaching out for help is a courageous act. Life can be difficult, painful, and isolating. Oftentimes we find ourselves in "survival mode", acting in ways we don't understand or finding it challenging to identify and vocalize what it is we actually do need. You may be experiencing difficulties in relationships, facing life challenges/changes or generally feeling unsatisfied with your life. Therapy is a safe space to explore what drives painful behaviors, identify what kind of life you do want, and implement positive changes with care and support.

I believe that clients have the innate ability to heal through accessing their innermost selves. Each client is traveling their own personal, interpersonal, and spiritual path and I act as a guide to help facilitate and co- create healing and wholeness. Through healing old wounds, past traumas, and solving relationship conflicts, I aspire to help individuals, couples, and families reach their highest potentials to aid in having richer and more fulfilling lives. My approach is Transpersonal, which means that I look beyond the ego into the spiritual to encourage wholeness in each client.

I have been in the field of social work for twenty-two years providing psychotherapy for adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Counseling can be a difficult process in which vulnerabilities and pain are often exposed. I provide a safe, nurturing, non-judgmental environment making the client as comfortable as possible to explore this process and address concerns. My goal is to provide safe and healthy coping mechanisms as well as a clearer understanding of the issues presented.
