My goal is to come alongside you and help you in your journey. I believe we all go through tough times and as a therapist I offer a judgement free space for you to talk about what you are experiencing.

I want you to know there is hope and you are not alone. We will work together to find the best treatment approach that is specific to your needs.

Each person is worthy of being seen, heard, and valued. When the challenges and stressors of life become too much to handle, it can lead to feeling like the rug is being pulled out from under you. I take a person-centered approach, allowing each person to be the expert of their own lives, and work to walk alongside each client to help them find their desired outcomes. I work with individuals, couples, and family members through a number of varying issues and problems to gain emotional resilience in order to respond mindfully to life’s challenges while fostering personal and relational healing.

Developing a relationship with a qualified and caring therapist who provides a safe non-judgmental environment is essential if the client is to have a meaningful and successful counseling experience. This is always my objective with my clients. Utilizing research-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I work with a wide range of clients and their issues. Specialized treatment areas include trauma-related disorders, depression and anxiety disorders, martial & relationship issues, grief and loss, and crisis intervention. I also provide adjustment and coping-skills counseling for tinnitus patients, using a CBT protocol.

Life can be very hard, and we could all benefit from some help along the way. Ironically, it is navigating the most difficult parts of the journey that often invests life with the deepest sense of meaning and direction. Try as we may, we cannot do this well alone. It is my passion to partner with adolescents, adults, and couples (see specialties below) to foster a deeper understanding of challenging issues, resolve conflict, restore connection, clarify goals, create healthy life rhythms, and move towards change. Wherever you are on your journey, it would be my privilege to meet you there and walk alongside you in a helpful way.

While we are increasingly more connected to others via technology, we oftentimes feel less connected in our relationships. My desire is to assist you in developing genuine and authentic relationships with others and yourself. I passionately focus on this goal within the context of our individual therapeutic relationship. I promote positive change for you and your relationships by creating a reality based and positive approach to improvement in mood, behavior, and life balance.

Perhaps you feel confused by your relationship. You may have tried personal or marital counseling and are even more bewildered. You suspect you are in an emotionally, verbally, or spiritually abusive relationship, but you may not even have the words to define what is happening. Counseling can provide a safe place to find healing and hope from the effects of neglect and abuse, including narcissistic abuse and gaslighting. As a certified narcissistic abuse and certified trauma counselor as well as an Accelerated Resolution Therapy master-level clinician, I can guide you as you seek to understand and heal.

Couples often enter my office feeling like their best efforts to share with their partner are met with anger, defensiveness or nothing at all. They so badly want to feel close and understood, but with each attempt to reach out they once again feel hurt and alone. Their partner often feels like despite their best efforts, they keep hearing what they got wrong leaving them feeling like they can’t ever seem to get it right. As these stuck places continue, of course it is easy to start to feel exhausted and hopeless as it seems you are all out of moves and maybe even tired of trying.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by life? Stuck and unsure of how to move forward? Anxious, isolated, lonely? Do you actively feel caught up in hurtful patterns in relationships and in need of change? I believe hope and healing are possible. Counseling can be an incredible partnership helping individuals and couples on their journey through life's most difficult places. The Ideal Client is someone that is Willing to Partner, Share, Listen, and Willingly Open Themselves to Make Room for Something Different, Something Healing. Are You Ready to Embrace the Opportunities and Changes Available to You? Let’s Work Together!

Yes—I am accepting new clients! Are you struggling with anxiety and depression? Is your mental health affecting your work, marriage, and friendships? I know the decision to seek counseling can be difficult, but just taking the first step toward better mental health is a step toward healing. I provide psychotherapy to individuals struggling to make sense of their emotions and who want to learn how to manage them better. I firmly believe that you have the ability and strength to make a positive life change.

Often times our lives and relationships don't go according to our plans. We have problems with our past, not connecting or understanding relationships, how others have hurt us, or how to navigate the difficulty of finances. These situations are just a few that could require some additional help. You are not alone in this. In fact, most individuals and couples can relate to these experiences. Assistance can come in many forms, including the client central focus that Olive Tree Counseling strives to accomplish.

I have many years experience working with adults and children suffering from depression, anxiety, OCD, anger issues, trauma, and abuse. I have also worked in the field of drug and alcohol addiction. After my graduate studies, my primary focus and training was working with children suffering from ADHD, ODD, depression, and anxiety. I used behavioral management coupled with parenting strategies to improve the overall parent/child relationship. I gained incredible knowledge and insight regarding chronic pain as well as grief and loss while working with the elderly population through home health care and hospice.

Now accepting new clients! As we go through life, we face an array of challenges. In therapy, I enjoy working with adults of all ages (18+) to help navigate these challenges. I have experience with individuals facing a variety of mental health concerns including, but not limited to, life transitions, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and trauma. I work with couples who may be struggling with communication issues, infidelity, and more. I am passionate about providing support for polyamorous relationships as well.

Going to marriage counseling or couples therapy can be an intimidating process, so I work to create an environment which is comfortable, non-judgmental, and safe for you to be yourself. I am passionate about meeting those who are willing to take the first step to deepen relationships with their partners, spouses, or within other relationships. I have experience working with young adults, adolescents, children, adults, and families. I am trained in various treatment modalities including Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
