"Life is hard. We do the best we can to solve our problems with the knowledge we have. But sometimes we find ourselves in a difficult spot where we need fresh perspectives and new thinking tools to help us deal with our problems in a healthier way. That is the benefit of counseling. In a safe and affirming environment, I help my clients find solutions to problems that are solvable, learn to better cope with those that are unsolvable, and discover deeper joy and meaning in life."

We love being a part of watching clients lives change as they gain access to skills and resources that help them confront the challenges they are facing."

"I invite you to experience a cooperative therapy relationship in which you have the freedom to be yourself, to be imperfect, to laugh, and to evolve. My practice focuses on helping women heal from traumatic experiences including childhood neglect, sexual violence, loss, and any situation that results in a feeling of overwhelm and an inability to cope. With a foundation in relational psychodynamic therapy, my clinical work integrates traditional talk therapy with techniques from modern trauma treatments involving mindfulness, somatic, and experiential approaches."

I am able to easily develop strong relationships with teenagers due to my non-threatening presentation and approach. I work with a wide range of anxiety-based issues, including PTSD, social anxiety, generalized anxiety and OCD. "

"I believe in the healing nature of secure relationships, and strive to create a warm safe environment to explore the issues individuals may be struggling with.

I specialize in attachment/relationship difficulties and trauma and am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and EMDR."

"Life can be challenging and can sometimes get in the way of our happiness. This can lead to problems that can be difficult to work through on our own. I work with clients to resolve these problems by utilizing their strengths and resources. I also provide different perspectives and therapeutic modalities to achieve each client’s individualized goals."

"We all have stuff. That "stuff" gets us stuck in different places in our lives and makes it so we can't get to where we want to go. In our sessions, we will keep the work centered on you and your needs. Your journey and work are personal and initially, may be difficult to discuss. We will work together to give you that voice you need to get unstuck and move forward. My goal is for you to feel safe in the therapeutic environment so that you can gain the tools necessary to live the life you would like to live. "

"I have a passion for helping people reach their goals and accomplish overall well-being. I offer my clients a safe place to work through their challenges together with compassion and encouragement. Each person is unique, and therefore I tailor my counseling to fit your needs. I can help you develop the skills needed to live your life to the fullest. Many things get in the way of achieving what we desire. Not only can I help you remove the obstacles in your way, but also help you develop strengths to overcome and prevent future difficulties."

"My role as a therapist is to guide you in redirecting behavior patterns and styles of thinking that are not working, to open doors to new ways of thinking and doing that bring a sense of wellness and empowerment, and help you discover and embrace your authentic self. I work well with clients who are curious about themselves, are stuck in dysfunctional relationships, have difficulty standing up for themselves, and who are motivated to make changes. I strive to always be non-judgmental and supportive, so that any clients who have experienced trauma and/or oppression feel safe and supported."

"As we go through life we face challenges, from these challenges we may experience pain and suffering. As this pain becomes stored within us it creates burdens that may sometimes be too heavy to bear. As a result many may turn to temporary solutions. As I work with clients to explore and resolve pain and trauma more permanent solutions are often discovered and the burden of pain is reduced."

"Accepting new clients. Night and weekend hours available. My belief is that learning to deal with emotions is crucial to true change. Our emotions are at the core of who we are and whatever is happening to us. This makes what I do, unique. My work goes deeper than teaching you skills. You will learn the skills and also learn to get through the emotional pain that brought you into therapy. I have received extensive training in Emotionally Focused Therapy. "

"I specialize in working with individuals living with challenges related to trauma, grief, separation and loss, as well as sensitive sexual and relational issues. I use a great deal of sensory-integration and brain-based approaches providing a non-threatening, safe, and inviting relationship with which to share some pretty "scary" stuff. I help individuals improve their relationships with themselves and others, while feeling safer, feeling better about themselves, and feeling empowered in their own voice and actions."

"I enjoy working with clients to help improve their relationships with themselves and others. As social creatures, how we relate to others is important to experience happiness and satisfaction in life. My approach to therapy is strength's based and client centered. My interests are in Attachment Theory and Psychodynamic Theory; specifically how our early relationships and experiences influence how we see ourselves and relate to others. Often we are repeating patterns in life that cause us to feel stuck or hurt. I like to help clients identify such patterns."

"Therapy can be a dynamic experience creating hope and energy. Facing challenges and grieving losses we inevitably face is a powerful step in moving toward a more satisfying present. I view therapy as a collaboration with you to create your transformation and growth. Our past experiences shape our view of ourselves and in turn our potential in the future. I hope to assist you to "re-author" the stories you have about yourself not serving a positive purpose and replace them with new stories, skills and a vision that do. "
