You might not have language for it yet, but you can feel it: you’re in between versions of your life.
Our work is structured, intentional, and grounded in well-established psychological approaches. Many clients come to me after insight alone—or prior therapy—hasn’t translated into real change. We focus on methods that are practical, research-informed, and effective, helping you understand how you operate and apply that understanding in day-to-day life.

My background in psychology and Conscious Living coaching combine to offer organic practices which can be integrated into daily life with ease.
I am a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience working with clients. My work is based upon my belief that human beings are inherently good and yet all too often adopt limiting belief systems and habitual behavioral patterns which keep us from realizing our true nature. I work with clients who wish to regain their balance and integrity and assist them in learning how to live the lives they intuitively know they are meant to live. Clients often present with depression, anxiety and/or relationship difficulties and seek to feel better and sustain more on-going joy, love, and harmony in their lives.

I have worked extensively with individuals and couples who are driven to extend their self-care beyond symptom management and challenge the pervasive patterns that are inhibiting their sense of well-being and growth. Our work together would be collaborative in nature and both validating and challenging. I am interested in understanding what informs perspectives that influence behavior and how processing, healing and ongoing accountability can establish an improved course and better outcomes.

I'd love to help you be able to move forward in life and learn to cope with what life has thrown at you.
Finding the right therapist can be overwhelming. I provide free consultations so you can get an idea if we are a good fit. It has been my passion the last 17 years to help people after experiencing traumatic events. I am trained in EMDR which is also known as "no talk therapy". You can share as much or as little as you like making it a preferable type of therapy for those struggling with trauma but not comfortable talking about it. I have also worked closely with first responders for the last 10 years making me familiar with the culture. I also provide consultation and subject matter testimony for domestic violence trials.

I want to enjoy life
We might focus on the present, making small, incremental changes that move you forward. Or examine your self-talk, altering destructive thinking patterns that negatively influence your behavior. Sometimes attending to the underlying emotions around your interactions opens up hearts and communication. You will leave with a toolkit for improvement!

When my clients begin to express what they believe in and value, they begin to find relief and a feeling of connectedness to life.
Are you stuck in an uncomfortable situation and feel hopeless about what to do next? Many of my clients find they are tired of giving up parts of themselves in order to survive or fit in. It can be difficult keeping up with the demands of career, family and friends. It is common to feel misunderstood, lonely, isolated or alienated.

I help teens and young adults navigate life's challenges with practical strategies, compassion, and sometimes even a little humor.
I believe therapy should feel like a collaborative conversation, not an interrogation. My goal is to create a comfortable, supportive environment where you can be open and honest without fear of judgment. While we may discuss difficult topics, I also believe that humor can be a powerful tool for building perspective, resilience, and hope.

In counseling, I use EMDR, somatic work, and deep attunement to move things that talk therapy often can’t. In coaching, we focus on reclaiming vision, aligning with truth, and building the next chapter of your life.
