"2019-Not taking NEW clients now. Life has its ups and downs-not all the time. Being trained and having a sympathetic heart are good combinations as a therapist. My intention is to provide/propose changes and alternatives that are suitable to your needs and wants. I believe in a therapeutic environment that is collaborative, systems-oriented, which includes, empowering a person or family toward achieving life at its best. We all need it at some time in life. It's your life, treat it well! Call today!."

"Our Therapists will work with Couples Counseling - this is for those who are married or contemplating marriage; divorced or contemplating divorce. The goal is to assist couples with realizing their dreams together. Marriages fail because of this cliche, "we simply grew apart". We have seen couples take a marriage or relationship on the brink of break-up, and transform it into something stronger and more fulfilling than ever. For someone who had a critical parent, they might learn to survive by becoming a perfectionist, or becoming very rigid about how everything needs to be. It means that while you will choose to be with someone who gives you some good things, they will also come with some of those things that feel familiar in a negative way. You will find that they often seem to be the most incapable of giving you what you most need (and vice versa). The work of marriage is to complete the healing of childhood.PREPARE/ENRICH is a customized couple assessment completed online that identifies a couple's strength and growth areas."

"Do you struggle with anxiety, depression? Is it keeping you from doing the things that you love and functioning the way that you want to? Is it creeping up on you when you least expect? Or are life's struggles too hard to carry on your shoulders, too much to keep on going? At times, these issues are there and intended for us to process through, to overcome the challenges and know how to have coping skills and tools to battle them again in the future. Trauma is no different, and as it holds you back from doing the things you love, learn how to stop that cycle, and take control of it. "

"Walking our life path can be a difficult process; I believe it does not have to be a walk done alone. All lives have moments of joy and moments of difficulty, with some luck, some work and some self-compassion we can see our lives become more aligned with living a life that brings us more joy and gives us better tools to manage the difficulties. I use a client-centered existential approach to address wounds through compassion and the work of radical self-acceptance. Are you a POC wanting to explore the intersection of identities and searching for healing? You are my ideal client."

"Self doubts, fears and unpleasant realities often guide our thoughts, words and behaviors. Especially when we have been hurt before, many of us dread being vulnerable with others because it creates a possibility for pain. Many people struggle with depression, anxiety, and other important issues in silence; as a result, their emotional and relational needs go unmet. In therapy, I will work to create a safe space for you to share even the most unsettling truths. It is my joy to assist you in reaching whatever goals you have for your life. "

"Do you struggle because of your sexual identity, gender identity, age, or health status? Does it sometimes feel like the world will only accept you if you fit in a neat little box? I will help you uncover or reconnect with the beautiful parts of yourself that have been overshadowed by societal expectations and pressure. I provide a safe, supportive, confidential environment to explore and create the life you want and the relationships you desire. I work with people of all gender expressions, ages, spiritual backgrounds, health statuses, and sexual orientations."

"Are you seeking change in your life, would you like to feel better, become more empowered and have support along the way? All of this is possible. No matter where you're at in life or what your goals are you can get the support you need. My goal as a therapist is to help you live the life you want to live and be happy doing it. I specialize in helping people see things differently, recognize their strengths, set healthy goals with a plan to achieve them, and live a more fulfilling life that brings them happiness and peace."

"I believe that a positive therapeutic relationship is key to one's healing process. My role is to remind you of the unique set of strengths you already possess, and to help you find creative ways to apply them to overcome adversity. My previous clinical experience includes work at a psychiatric hospital, substance abuse center, and community mental health agency. The variety of my past experiences allows me to utilize a diverse set of skills and approaches that I enjoy customizing to your unique needs and personality."

"For many of us, the hardest challenge to overcome is to ask for help. If you're reading this, you've already found the courage to start becoming the best version of yourself. While as an individual you are unique, none of us are perfect and we all experience conflict, hardships, and a variety of emotions. I believe our life experiences as well as cultural background influence the way in which we interact with the world. I am a strong proponent of collaboration and I view the therapeutic relationship as a team. "

"Do you feel overwhelmed with the circumstances in your life? Do you feel like family and friends just do not seem to understand? I have been there myself. Looking for a therapist and getting help can also be intimidating. My hope when you come to therapy is that you can relax and feel that support and encouragement you need to get through this difficult time in your life. Some of my experience has been with anger management, self-esteem and body image challenges. I also have experience working with other difficult life challenges such as postpartum, grief, anxiety, depression and marital difficulties."

"Change is difficult. It takes courage, strength, and commitment to want to improve your life. Whether you want to make behavioral, emotional, spiritual, interpersonal, or health related changes, I will help you explore the issues in depth. I want to hear and understand the context of your story. I will bring passion to our interactions and provide you with honest feedback. I will support you in finding meaning in your struggle and create an open atmosphere where you can look at all of your options as you decide how to take the next steps in your life journey."

"Experienced clinician with many specialties including bariatric psychology, body image issues, substance dependence, mood disorders, and relationship issues."

"Do you feel alone and empty? Do you want peace and clarity? I am here to help and guide you to find your inner peace. Wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful part of us. Each journey begins with a single, yet often difficult step. Let me provide you with the tools to help heal your wounds. Like Shannon Alder, I know that courage doesn't happen when you have all the answers. It happens when you are ready to face the questions you have been avoiding in your life."

"My goal as a clinician is to deliver the best care possible through building strong therapeutic relationships rooted in respect and compassion. I believe that the therapist is a journeyman, so together we will work collaboratively to achieve your goals. As a journeyman I get a unique opportunity to meet people along life’s way, as they navigate their quest to understand the “whys” of their world. "

"I’ve worked in the healthcare field for over 30 years and have developed a great appreciation for the depth and breadth of human experience. I have always had a passion for exploring and understanding the dynamic relationship of mind, body and spirit, and my work with clients has repeatedly touched me and encouraged me to pursue training in a variety of integrative treatment modalities, including Bioenergetic Analysis (a body-oriented psychotherapy), Somatic Experiencing (a method of resolving/healing trauma), Coherence Therapy (formerly Depth Oriented Brief therapy), Relational Somatic Psychotherapy, Feldenkrais Method (sensorimotor/movement awareness) and biofeedback methods including neurofeedback."
