My training has included learning how to improve relationships, increase happiness and joy, develop meaning and purpose, reduce anxiety and depression, recover from trauma and addictions, and enhance sleep and pain management.
Does your anxiety get in the way of doing things? Would you like to improve your relationships with a partner, family, friends, or coworkers? Do you feel down, unmotivated, or not as interested in things as you used to be? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, there is hope! You are not alone in these experiences, and many people have changed their lives through therapy. Therapy is a journey that we take together. There are many paths we can choose from to go in the direction you desire. Everyone is different, and your path is tailored to your needs, preferences, and values.

Every life has seasons and circumstances where the trail changes and the journey becomes difficult. Sometimes the stones are masterfully laid and the walking is smooth, sometimes the stones serve as steps to get us to where we want to go, and sometimes the stones are such a mess that we can barely figure out the next safe step. I want to come alongside you with compassionate, knowledgeable, and encouraging support to get you to where you can experience a manageable trail to walk. The goal is to equip you with the tools and skills to navigate a satisfying, healthy, and balanced life. I look forward to helping you on your path.

If we decide to work together, I assure a completely safe space for you to express yourself, guidance to reach a greater understanding of what is causing you pain, and tools to help manage how you feel.
You have difficulty controlling your thoughts, behaviors, or your sex life. You find yourself behaving in ways that you don’t understand or have caused issues in your life. You have tried to figure this out on your own, and it isn’t working. You want to understand yourself better, be a better version of yourself, and you are needing change. During my professional career, I have helped many clients with issues in these areas. Life is complex, and even the most successful and intelligent people need help at times.

While I will be with you in your pain, I will also challenge you when the time is right.
How often are you able to sit with someone who is willing to explore absolutely anything going on in your life without judgment? The therapy relationship is unlike any other relationship. I believe that when we feel safe enough to talk about what may normally be embarrassing or shameful, and our vulnerability is met with understanding, real change and healing can happen.

Chronic Pain Therapists
How does chronic pain therapy work?
Engaging with a psychotherapist to help treat chronic pain does not mean that one’s pain is all in their head. Therapy for chronic-pain patients has been shown to benefit both the mind and the body, targeting physical symptoms and increasing daily functioning. In other words, for many, addressing their emotional health through therapy affects their physical health. A therapist can help a client challenge unhelpful thoughts about pain and develop new ways to respond to it, such as distraction or calming breathing techniques. Studies have found that therapy can be as effective as surgery for certain cases of chronic pain and many doctors recommend trying psychotherapy in advance of considering invasive surgery.
What are the most effective treatment options for chronic pain?
Stress, anxiety, depression, catastrophizing, ruminating, lack of activity, and social withdrawal all make chronic pain worse. Addressing these issues, research shows, can help people gain control over their pain symptoms. Therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, biofeedback, and mindfulness-based stress reduction, along with greater pain-management education, have been found to help people reduce fear and disability.
Are there new treatments for chronic pain?
Many cases of chronic pain, particularly those involving back pain, remain medically unexplained. But there is evidence that changes in the brain or nervous system are caused by previous physical ailments such as tissue damage; in such cases, the brain may continue to send out pain signals despite the physical cause having healed. To aid patients under these circumstances, a recently developed treatment known as pain reprocessing therapy (PRT) is designed to help the brain “unlearn” this response. A PRT practitioner helps individuals to reduce the “threat value” of their ongoing pain signals until they can reappraise them as less threatening and fear-inducing. They also help an individual to develop new emotional regulation skills.
How long does therapy for chronic pain take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from chronic pain, especially as there may be a range of physical and psychological causes for any individual’s discomfort, but most patients should expect to see a therapist for a number of weeks or months, typically spanning at least 12 sessions. Studies of pain reprocessing therapy found that many individuals’ experience of pain lessened in eight sessions over four weeks.
