Teletherapy for West Virginia

You can take the first step today towards the happier life you have been hoping for. Help is only a phone call away. I consider it an honor and priviledge when my clients form a connection with me and entrust me with their hopes , dreams and deepest disires for a fulfilling and happy life. I create a safe and empathetic environment for you to explore the past and present as we work together to find hope and healing for your future. You do not have to do this alone. And it’s never too late to start.

Therapy is often described as a journey or an adventure through life's ups and downs. We're all on a quest to uncover the treasure of inner peace and well-being, and I'm here to be your trusted guide along the path. Together, we'll navigate the challenges and celebrate the growth. It will be difficult at times, but you will be wrapped in unwavering support, and it will be worth the time and energy to keep pushing forward.

Hello and welcome! For over 3 years, I have been intrigued by the resiliency and persistence of the clients that have worked with me. If you have suffered from a traumatic experience, a difficult childhood, or you recognize that you are driven to make choices that do not align with your ideal self, I would be honored to help you silence the limiting thoughts in your head for good. I want to help you find what is stopping you from enjoying your life fully and make changes. I practice what I preach in my personal life, through meditation, family, spirituality, and the most stress reduction comes from practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

I became a counselor after a close friend died suddenly. As part of my personal growth and empowerment, I have expanded my ability to better understand the incredible power of the indomitable spirit of the human condition and all what we are capable of doing. I enjoy working with my clients to identify and address issues that cause them discomfort, mental pain, or disruption in their lives so they can be happier, healthier, and ultimately more attuned and present in daily events, eventually leading to fulfillment and enrichment in their lives. ​

I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship. My approach is rooted in creativity and flexibility, allowing us to tailor your sessions to your unique preferences and individual needs. I am passionate about embracing cultural diversity and fostering an environment that is supportive, safe, and free of judgment.

Being a young person today is hard! Navigating pressures at home and school while balancing a social life can feel overwhelming at times. Often, young people have trouble making sense of their world, figuring out where they "fit", and managing their behavior and emotions. They may act out, withdraw from others, or make questionable choices. My focus involves supporting and educating young people and their families so they can manage intense feelings and communicate more effectively. We will pay special attention to developing coping and problem-solving skills while learning how thoughts, feelings, and actions are related.

I genuinely love people and am so happy to be working in a field where I can aid individuals in achieving their goals and cultivating a life they want for themselves. I understand the challenges of dealing with emotional distress and psychological suffering, and strive to help people overcome challenges they are experiencing with their mental health.

Emotional and behavioral challenges in childhood and adolescence affects the child and rest of the family unit as well. Caregivers often find themselves heartbroken while they watch their child struggle through issues they wish they could take away, and if the child is acting out behaviorally, it is common for caregivers to even feel hurt and confused. I offer therapy services for children ages 3 and up, as well as adults and families for the diagnosis and treatment of emotional, relational, and behavioral concerns, as well as offer support services and psychoeducation to their caregivers and other family members.

I strive to be the most effective counselor possible in helping people with their mental health needs or issues.

PeaceTree Center is a wonderful therapeutic environment. I am available for Psychological Evaluations and Individual, Couples or Family Therapy. I enjoy working with all ages. I do evaluations for ADHD, Autism, Learning Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder and more. I have late evening hours on Thursdays, if needed.

I work predominantly with adults ages 21-81. About 20% of my practice consists of families or couples. Common themes for therapy are family conflict, romantic relationships or lack of, chronic illness, anxiety and depression.

Modern life can be a complicated and frightening thing. Daily there are news reports of catastrophes, rising economic problems, war, disasters, and the trials of every day living. Continuing issues from the pandemic, with teens and many adults feeling isolated due to the feelings of loss associated with it. Fear of the unknown, and concerns over modern life. Feeling as though you are alone, depressed, and anxious in an ever fast paced world. But hope still exists, it helps you to thrive in this modern world as opposed to just surviving. Hope is there waiting for you to find it, and help you through.

Do you have hope that it can get better? It can! While creating a safe place, therapy can help you learn to practice taking care of yourself. You are important and you deserve to be happy, healthy, and have hope in life. Through empowerment, encouragement, and education we can help to ease some of your burden.

I utilize an individualized approach to target clinical symptoms and personality issues. My interventions are evidence based with the goal of empowering others to better understand the origins of their issues and to make meaningful changes, regardless of diagnostic labels. I believe everyone deserves to be assisted and supported to live to their full potential and particularly enjoy working with those who have experienced complex trauma from childhood and relationship experiences. I welcome veterans and military families, those in the LGBTQIA+ community, and people seeking to integrate or discuss faith in treatment.

If you are seeking assistance with intrusive thoughts or troubling behavior, like checking the locks repeatedly, then I may be of service. I have experience with PTSD, depression, and anxiety. If you struggle getting along with coworkers or even friends and family, we can work to improve those relationships. Isolation does not fix the problem, it further damages those relationships and leaves you feeling alone. Anger and anxiety are natural feelings. However, sometimes controlling them can be easier said than done.

"Maturity is not the absence of struggle, but struggling well" said author and psychologist Larry Crabb. As a counselor I desire to safely engage with clients' stories-which include both joy and struggle-and work together towards hopeful and lasting change. With over 25 years' experience helping people improve relationships and marriages, confront depression and anxiety, or face emotional and mental health issues, I strive to help clients pursue personal growth and relational integrity as they face life's challenges.

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy. My goals are to assist you with problem areas of your life. I offer a safe and judgement free space for you to explore your issues.

My philosophy of therapy is that it is collaborative, person centered, and strengths-based process that has the ability to transform individual’s lives. Life is about transitions and change, and therapy can provide a safe place to learn skills to cope with these inevitable parts of life. My therapy style is to provide support and a non-judgmental stance to provide a safe place to process life’s difficulties.
