PROVIDING TELE-HEALTH THROUGH A HIPPA COMPLIANT PLATFORM. Are you feeling "stuck"? I believe counseling and therapy can help deal with everyday stressors, major life changes, and major or minor mental health issues. I strive to provide a safe, supportive environment to explore the challenges and difficulties you are facing. My goal is to assist you at challenging times in your life by examining your behaviors, feelings, and thoughts and identify what you can change to improve your life. Using your strengths, we will look for ways to deal with those difficulties.

I work with adolescents and young adults who are feeling stuck by life's pitfalls and need help moving forward. Whether struggling with trauma, anxiety + depression, emotional issues or relationship struggles, they know something in their life feels "off", but can't quite place what it is or why. I'm here to help you feel more free, and have language and tools to better help you get unstuck.

No matter how strong we are in meeting the challenges of life sometimes what happens to us heaps upon us a mountain of stress and we can do little but feel the pain of all that weight. Our goal is to help those we serve be effective in resolving personal pain through the empowerment of their natural strengths. Step by measured step, we work to build durability, and self-respect through skill building to overcome the pains that make life less enjoyable. We want to help you to move that mountain of pain one stone a time- by skillful means.

Ever feel run down from taking care of others? Tired to the point of exhaustion but afraid or unable to stop? Unsure how you ended up where you are but sure you don't want to be there anymore? It's an easy place to find ourselves. What isn't easy is getting out of it. I can help. For over 20 years I've been providing a confidential, nurturing environment that in which people can safely figure out who they are and what they’re about. Working together, we explore life’s questions, challenges and opportunities, as well as the stories we're living by and the ones we want to live by.

Your life, your concerns and your goals are of utmost importance when you choose a therapist. Finding the right fit makes a huge difference. I have more than 20 years of experience counseling individuals, couples, and families. I am well equipped and highly motivated to guide you as you achieve your goals. Your concerns are immediately addressed when you speak with me. I take time to get to know you and work to combine counseling theories and techniques to individually work with you. I have no cookie cutter treatment plans. My doctoral thesis focused on clinical outcomes.

I help couples at an impasse move to a place of clarity. The love is there, but the issues between them feel insurmountable. My approach is systemic to ensure that the individuals in every relationship I work with feel heard while working toward a resolution.

There are only two kinds of people in the world: those who know they need a good therapist and those who think they don't. My goal is compassionate, effective treatment based in neuroscience for your relief from symptoms and emotional freedom. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Daring Way Facilitator, and an EMDR Certified therapist (and EMDR Consultant-in-Training).

Within the 23yrs of working in mental health, Vonda have striven to bring an effective blend of experience, expertise, clarity, concern and action to the therapy process in order to maximize outcomes and provide genuine healing and wholeness to individuals, marriages and families. She knows that life isn’t always easy and sometimes, even the strongest people need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s challenging problems. She also knows that everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point and the only difference between you and another is "how" you choose to handle "what" has or is happening to you.
