I take a whole body approach to health and illness with a focus on how the mind influences the body just as the body influences the mind. Anxiety, depression, and stress can impact health and exacerbate chronic pain, heart disease, insomnia, and other medical problems. However, addressing the emotional aspects of medical conditions can improve quality of life and physical health. Also, psychological principles can help enhance wellness and lead to lasting behavioral changes. As a health psychologist, I can help you emotionally cope with medical conditions, make healthy lifestyle choices, and learn skills to move forward with your life.

I have extensive inpatient and outpatient experience in assisting adult and senior clients who have been diagnosed with mood disorders, anxiety, psychosis, and personality disorders. I also assist clients who are in crisis and/or dealing with stress, sadness, worry, grief/loss, caregiver burden, and unhealthy habits and behaviors. I also provide services to couples and families geared toward helping them develop skills and insight that will increase communication and problem solving skills. I view therapy as a means to highlight healthy and unhealthy thoughts and behaviors while providing a direction for clear and lasting change.

I strive to create a caring, compassionate, understanding, and supportive environment where you can feel safe and comfortable enough to discuss your important issues. I deeply respect you and your inner resources and ability to move towards growth and wholeness. My goal is to help you mobilize your hidden strengths while affirming your ability to grow using a custom tailored approach that will best fit your needs and help you reach your goals. During our initial sessions we will work together to create a treatment plan and set goals for therapy.

I believe that counseling has the potential to help a person unlock his/her ultimate potential. I utilize a humanistic approach to therapy that seeks to help a person integrate mind and body, in an effort to achieve wholeness. I incorporate modalities such as play therapy expressive arts, and sand tray therapy. However, I believe the power of the therapeutic relationship is quintessential for success with clients. My priority is to help clients feel safe and open in order to explore past and/or current issues.

My goal is your self acceptance, which is the foundation for your happiness. We achieve this together by changing your perspective about yourself, by identifying your unconscious beliefs that hold you back from reaching your full potential. My method is effective, simple and practical. I teach you THE CLARITY KEY (my model) which allows you to identify the hidden motivations driving your troubled relationships, emotions and self destructive behaviors. Once these beliefs are exposed and understood, your perspective shifts and your experience of yourself and life changes. You rapidly achieve self acceptance/confidence with lasting compassion for yourself and others.

The "get over it" advice is not always helpful. I'm here to help get you unstuck and find relief from impairing panic attacks, suicidal depression, and traumatic memories. Those who seek help face a better outcome. Replace sadness, worry and anger with self-acceptance, inner peace and empowerment.

I empower people to own their happiness during transitions. If you are feeling "stuck" and you are ready to make real change in your life, then I am the person for you. Life can be challenging, but it doesn't always have to be, and you don't have to go through it alone. If you feel the need to find yourself and evaluate the things in your life that matter and you are actively trying to make a change to regain your self, then this is a good place to start.

My ideal client is one who has dealt with anxiety and/or depression throughout life. The clients who have tried therapy periodically but struggle to maintain a stable mood. Clients who are uncomfortable in most environments and seem to always be on edge. These clients often face social, professional, and family struggles because they are reactive, defensive, and sometimes impulsive in both language and actions. People who struggle to be able to motivate themselves into action. These qualities can lead to feeling misunderstood and alienated. I have successfully treated clients that fit this profile.

Behavioral health is a complex area of medicine. Traumatic events in life can have lasting effects, and to complicate things further, the mind has a way of covering up our most painful memories. At Sawyer Behavioral Health, we believe the most effective way of navigating these intricacies is to take a strengths-based approach to therapy, drawing from cognitive and experiential movements. In this way the therapists at the practice create a comfortable environment of Compassion Care for everyone.
