Teletherapy for Indiana

Have you ever wondered, "Who am I? Whose life is this?" Have you asked yourself, "What is my purpose?" These are questions I love exploring with clients, whether individually, within a relationship, or with entire families. These questions can leave you feeling lost or hopeless, and miserable. But change is possible. Perhaps counseling hasn't worked in the past. Hypnotherapy or holistic wellness may be another option in your search for yourself.

Important: telehealth appointments only for patients in Washington State and Indiana. I do not currently provide face-to-face, in-office appointment. Telehealth video appointments only. Feeling stressed or overwhelmed and needing support to cope with life challenges? Need some relief, or to see the light at the end of the tunnel? Life is hard. Sometimes you need empathetic support and expert guidance to cope with complicated and stressful situations.

I coach women (and sometimes men) to value themselves as much as they value others. My clients have had the following characteristics. See if any of these describe you. They want to be liked by everyone. They become anxious when others are angry with them. They avoid conflict at any cost. They judge themselves as never good enough. They are afraid to express differing points of view. They value the opinions others hold of them, more than they value their own self-approval.

You are worthy of peace and joy! If you are tired of feeling stuck, distracted, or minimizing yourself and thinking of all the things you should be doing or unsure where to start....stop "should-ing" on yourself! Depression, grief, anger and anxiety are normal human emotions. However, with most things in life, it’s all about balance and moderation. Sometimes things from the past, fears of the future's uncertainty or the way we are wired creates patterns that interfere with living a more meaningful, joyful, and peaceful life- one that includes connecting with the healing powers already within you!

My clients are often struggling with excessive stress, or anxiety and depression, and can be triggered by past traumas. Many are experiencing oppression, discrimination, prejudice, or stigma. They want a better quality of life, for themselves and for their children or loved ones. My clients are often looking for inner peace and happiness to fully enjoy themselves and to enjoy interacting with others in situations or environments, such as work, school and home. It’s finding resilience, for example through newly learned skills and insights, or a spiritual journey of meditation/prayer, as examples, that allow a better quality of life.

Wishing your relationship would improve? Feeling disconnected from your spouse/partner(s)? Does your relationship feel unsatisfying sexually or emotionally? Having frequent conflicts or fights? Do you wish your partner could meet your physical or emotional needs and desires? Want help overcoming jealousy, insecurity, or sexual shame/guilt? Struggling to overcome an affair? Looking for help with non-monogamy, kinks/fetishes, or LGBTQ+ issues? Navigating solutions to these issues can feel overwhelming and difficult. Rest assured that you can have a stronger, more connected, sexually fulfilling life and relationship with Sex Therapy.

I am a Solution Focused Brief Therapy trained Biblical Life and Marriage Coach (SFBT/CBLC). This is a therapeutic approach that was developed by Steve de Shazer, Insoo Kim Berg, and their colleagues in the 1980’s. SFBT is an evidence-based approach that is effective at helping clients from any background and with various presenting problems. SFBT is a radical approach to helping clients that asks clients to focus their attention on the future they would like to design and create rather than continuing to focus on other problem-related concerns.

The word psychotherapist is greek and means "Healer of the Soul". When you come into my office, I will not label you with anxiety, depression, addiction or any other disorder. You will hear me ask questions like: How is your addiction protecting you from pain? What do you not feel when depression numbs you? Once you witness and heal the wounds of your soul (you can also call it trauma), the symptoms (the 'disorder') can disappear. If you are interested in having a deeper understanding and awareness of your emotions, I will help you to develop a relationship with yourself that is characterized by curiosity, respect and compassion.

Our goals in therapy are to make dynamic changes in your life, or learn to face uncertainty with emotional resilience, to thrive and flourish even after trauma or loss. I offer a dedicated, experienced and professional listening ear, compassionate spirit, and a clear, supportive guiding voice. Learn to develop your strengths, coping skills, and improve your energy. Our focus is to change, to solve the problems at hand, and to learn how to problem solve for the future, and create lasting differences for an improved lifestyle. Hablo Español, Je parle français. Tagalog and English spoken here.

I feel disconnected and alone. I don't have anyone around that really understands my problem. I don't want to burden my friends and family with my concerns. I'm worried someone will judge me if I tell them the truth. Have you had some of these thoughts? Fear of being judged or burdensome keeps a lot of people from finding the help they want.

As a counselor, I've come to learn and deeply believe that "healing" isn't about erasing our pain and avoiding the things that make us uncomfortable—it's learning to transform our relationship to our pain, and finding new ways to interact with this challenging, unpredictable world we're all part of. Whether it's navigating burnout and overwhelm, trying to move forward from trauma, or learning how to love and be loved more deeply, I believe we're all just trying to do our best with what we've got, and that the right set of helping hands at just the right time can make a whole world of difference.

All of us face painful and challenging experiences at some point in our journey. And sometimes, we need extra support to move through the struggles, to grow, to heal, to learn and unlearn, and to find peace and harmony again. I am passionate about walking alongside you through the ebb and flow of life, as you process pain and trauma, relationship strain, grief and loss, and other hardships that accompany living. A central part of my practice is to provide support and encouragement in these moments while also helping you to move toward greater clarity, calm, and well-being.

Accepting new clients 3/4/24. If we don't have relationships in this life, then what do we have? Relationships: that's what it is all about.
