Hello. My focus is holistic, which consists of looking at both mind and body. I work with teens, adults, and couples. I value my ability to listen, to empathize and to accept without judgement. Within a safe environment, clients will focus on finding their strengths and gaining insights to create clarity and harmony in their life.

Relationship struggles are part of the normal development of a relationship. Finding the way to get through this stage of growth will make the relationship strong and healthy. I have been privileged to receive excellent continuing professional couples training with leaders in our field. I provide the most effective strategies and interventions in my work with couples to lead to a more satisfying and healthy relationship.

As a psychotherapist, I listen without rushing in a relationship of mutual respect and trust. In psychotherapy, the therapist and the client take the time we need to listen to you and your inner healing process whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, sobriety, or faith concerns. (Please note that I do not respond by email to individuals seeking psychotherapy. I return calls with messages left at 209-669-8538.)

I have worked in the field of psychology for over twenty years. In my psychotherapy work, I provide a safe and respectful setting where you can discuss current challenges, and understand how particular feelings and patterns contribute to these challenges. Often these challenges develop out of prior dysfunctional relationships, and it is in the psychotherapy relationship that new and more satisfying goals and behaviors can be discussed and developed. In our initial appointments I actively listen and engage with patients to develop a psychological framework to understand their challenges, and then set concise goals to address in the therapy.

There are many reasons people come into therapy. Some people may be responding to unexpected changes in their lives or desiring exploration of growth. There are times in life when our ability to cope with stress is overwhelmed by guilt, grief, doubt, anxiety, or despair, and therapy can help. Therapy can provide support, problem solving skills, and empower individuals and families to address issues such as depression, anxiety, lack of confidence, relationship issues, stress management and creative blocks. Seeking therapy is positive. My goal is to help clients work towards change & create a greater awareness in their lives.

It's essential for people to grow intellectually, physically, and emotionally. To do this, we must be grounded by a sense of who we are as individuals and who we would like to be with others. Being able to connect and maintain healthy, lasting relationships allows us to feel competent and confident in ourselves. It's easy to trust others if we are secure in ourselves.However, when our confidence in ourselves is tested, we often become reluctant to ask for help. This is what we refer to as being "stuck".

Sometimes no matter what we try, feelings of sadness, anxiety, unresolved trauma, or other mental health challenges seem impossible to overcome. All people have the potential to change, grow and find meaning. I specialize in helping people heal from trauma and grief, anxiety, substance abuse, stress, and depression. I enjoy working with teens, adults, and families. We will work together to identify the underlying issues causing you distress.

You are overwhelmed, burned out, stressed, irritable and no longer feel like yourself. You want to enjoy your life, but you are on edge, frustrated and exhausted. You may be struggling with the demands of work, home, parenting, your relationship, or just trying to find balance while "fitting it all in." You may have past trauma that you have not worked through because YOU are always the one taking care of others. You break promises and commitments to yourself, have a hard time trusting yourself and place more importance on pleasing and showing up for others. This is impacting your most important relationship - the one with yourself!
