My passion is working with mom's (and dad's) who want to provide a happy and healthy upbringing for their children! I help mom's and dad's work through all of the difficult emotions that come with parenting including anxiety, guilt, shame, sadness, frustration and more. I help parent's who are looking to turn inward and do the hard work on themselves, to create the greatest relationship with their child, and childhood for their child, possible. I am currently completing EMDR training and utilizing EMDR interventions in my practice for patients who've experienced physical or emotional trauma, neglect or abuse.

I have over twenty years of experience working with children and adolescents in various settings. I have experience in working with clients with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, divorce issues, trauma etc.

Have you ever experienced a nagging feeling of constant worry or intrusive thoughts that you just can't get out of your head? Perhaps you experience a constant stream of "what ifs" for all of the possibilities that may happen or repeatedly check things to try to limit the anxiety you feel or prevent something bad from happening. Or maybe you are the parent of a child who experiences these symptoms, and feel powerless and unsure how to help. These feelings can be totally overwhelming, defeating and exhausting, and can get in the way of you living your life. You don't have to keep struggling with anxiety or OCD alone.

'Hearing with understanding is perhaps the better part of wisdom.' (-R. Lawhead). Each of us is on a personal journey. The goal is to stay on our path, nurturing and connecting to our wholeness and sense of self. When learned behaviors work against our desires we often become frustrated and depleted leaving little to give to ourself and others. Our situations are always unique, whether we are faced with depression, anxiety, couple or family problems, loss, parent-child issues, or transitional life challenges. A supportive therapeutic relationship can be a wonderful way to rediscover inner strength and regain perspective.

Are you thriving or surviving in your life? Sometimes it can be difficult to cope with life's challenges and it's difficult to communicate emotions, thoughts and feelings.

I have been working with children, adolescents, families and adult for 13 years.

I've always thought that life is extraordinarily beautiful, but also exceedingly difficult and even brutal at times. As a therapist, my goal is to make the therapeutic process comfortable, meaningful, and productive. I've worked with all walks of life, but I think the kinds of people who might benefit the most from my services are those that are looking to gain insight and use that insight to create lasting change. My approach is simple, 50% bottom up - How did we get here? & 50% top down - What can we do about it? Over time, we'll work to put the pieces together, establish a plan of action, and create hope for a better tomorrow.

I enjoy working with mature, spirituality oriented clients who are interested in working on themselves and in engaging in a mutually cooperative relationship with a spiritually grounded, compassionate therapist. I have over 25 years experience in helping clients who are dealing with loss, change, and transition. I work with clients to help them identify and process their feelings concerning their specific losses, whether they be due to the death of a loved one, the ending of a marriage, the loss of a job, the loss of a home, or the losses that come as part of the aging process.

Do you find yourself worrying a lot about the future? Does your fear keep you from engaging with friends or family, or from doing something you love? Has a past traumatic event been plaguing you? Have you noticed that you react quickly and strongly and that your emotions escalate rapidly in situations where it might not be called? Does it take a while for your emotions to return to a normal level? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you have come to the right place.
