Structural Family Therapy in Tulsa, OK

My experience as a Counselor, and prior to that, as a high school teacher, taught me that we all make mistakes and harbor emotional wounds at one time or another. I have been in my own recovery for Co-Dependency for over 23 years and I am committed to helping individuals and families affected by addiction. I am also a Cancer Survivor. I am devoted to easing the painful experience of others and very importantly, their caregivers, on this and similar journeys.

I believe that we all benefit when we pause and reflect on our lives. Sometimes, however, we need a trained person to help us find the pause button! Over the past twenty years I have been honored to walk along side people-many who were ill, grieving, or struggling with any number of life's obstacles. In session, you and I will individualize you care plan: Talk Therapy, Mindfulness, Narritive, and/or Cognitive-Behavioral therapy are a few tools we will work with.

My ideal client is someone who's life experiences may seem intimidating and overwhelming to most. Everyone deserves to have access to receive the help that they need and not be ashamed about what it is they are struggling with. I gravitate towards clients who most don't feel comfortable working with but I embrace as a challenge to help them grow and overcome what has been hindering them.

I am passionate about helping people improve their relationships with themselves and the world around them. I believe our relationships are one of the most important things we can care for, including the relationship we have with ourselves. When we learn to walk authentically in our own identity, we can better embrace those around us as well. Whatever is holding you back from fully enjoying the world around you, my hope is to help you find freedom and healing from those things.

Unconditional empathy and understanding can lead to uncovering your meaning and purpose.

Using your own creative process, I aim to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that are courageous, caring, compassionate, curious, confident, calm, and connected. This process can be done individually, with couples, and in family sessions.
