Trying to make something work by pretending to feel, think or act in ways that go against how you really feel is exhausting to the body, mind and your spirit. This realization can feel very uncomfortable. However, it is the door to finding both your aliveness and yourself as you investigate what you really feel and think about the situations that are distressing in yourself, family and work situations. I'd like to help you make the actual changes that you need to make. I help you find and focus on what is actually alive in you. All sessions are TeleHealth that creates a safe environment in the convenience of your home or office.

Trained in EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing, Internal Family Systems, Gottman Couples Method, Developmental Couple Therapy, Discernment Counseling, Grief Recovery, & NVC that helps talk therapy bring about emotional, mental- behavioral changes to bring the best to you to your life circumstances.
"There is nothing wrong with you, life is just far harder than you expected." "The moment you accept the troubles you have been given, the door will open." -Rumi And, " "The past does not create the present unless you insist." --Alan Watts
