I have a specialized interest in working with parents and caregivers of children living with chronic illness. I understand that when your child is navigating long-term medical challenges, the entire family is impacted. You may find yourself juggling multiple responsibilities—managing numerous medical appointments, advocating for your child, maintaining a household, and holding space for the emotional needs of your child and family—all while trying to keep yourself afloat. As a caregiver, you may feel overwhelmed, isolated, and emotionally exhausted as you navigate your new normal. You may be experiencing grief and self-doubt.

Navigating life and your relationships can be difficult and, for some, a constant struggle. You may struggle with low self-esteem, managing and expressing emotions, or have a difficult time setting and keeping boundaries in relationships.

If you are struggling with your emotions, mental health, or challenging life circumstances, you do not have to face it alone. Feeling defeated, overwhelmed, on-edge, and self-critical can be so isolating. I know from personal experience how dark life feels when battling anxiety and depression. Your brain may be telling you that your situation is helpless or that you are being “too dramatic,” but you are not broken. Your struggles do not define you, and it is not weak to ask for help. It takes a lot of courage and strength to start the process of healing, and if you have made it this far, you are doing amazing.

Life’s circumstances, experiences, and traumas can easily create burdens which feel insurmountable. The clients that I've helped have faced various challenges; expected and unexpected loss and grief, job loss, school and career shifts, incarceration, medical diagnoses, depression, eating disorders, overwhelming anxieties, escalating stress, personal transitions, and the need for healthier connections with others. Our bodies and minds are interconnected and at times one speaks louder or more clearly than another. Other times they may feel disconnected. If this is the case, I offer a variety of techniques to reestablish connection.

Secular and Non-Religious Therapists
What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.
Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.
Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.
What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
