Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT

We all struggle in the relationships that are important to us and need help some of the time to develop skills to strengthen these relationships. We lose connection and have difficulty communicating with our partners or spouses; we get stuck in conflict with our children; we lose track of who we are; we dread going to work because it feels hostile or unsafe; we question our faith; we have trouble expressing needs at school; and we neglect our bodies and our health. The relationships we have with ourselves and others are always evolving and we need to change with them.

I practice from a Health at Every Size® perspective and offer an inclusive space for all. I value being empathetic while challenging my clients to step outside of their comfort zone and unlock their strengths. Taking the first step to get help and support can be intimidating but it can lead to growth and change!

I am a firm believer that life is a journey; sometimes you need someone to assist you in navigating your journey. I believe the answers to your questions are inside of you, but they can be covered by pain and fear. I use a combination of traditional talk therapy and possibly creativity to support you in your healing process as you move towards health and development. I will listen, provide education, mindfulness, and other techniques to assist you in identifying unhealthy patterns in a helpful and compassionate way.

I believe in empowering a greater sense of responsibility so a person can manage and cope with life's trials and difficulties. If you are an individual struggling with depression or anxiety, a couple seeking a greater bond after some form of crisis, or a family in need of resolving various forms of conflict, then I am confident I can assist you. I also have done a lot of work with military veterans. I chose this line of work in mid-life. My other real life experience includes: a dairy farmer, a quality control inspector in manufacturing, a high school teacher, and an MCSE in the computer field. I know what it is like out there.

Play Therapy
Generally for children ages 3 to 11, play therapy is a form of counseling that relies on play to help therapists communicate with children and understand their mental health. Because children develop cognitive skills before language skills, play is an effective way to understand a child. The therapist may observe a child playing with toys--such as playhouses and dolls--to understand the child's behavior and identify issues.
