I bring over 20 years of experience to the Presbyterian Counseling Center. I offer a unique opportunity for people who come to me for counseling to become aware of issues about their relationships with others, and also develop a deeper awareness and appreciation of their world and their place in it...a spiritual search. When spirituality and hope meet, many say they experience a transformative change. No matter where you are in your journey, I offer you an experience in which you will be encouraged to take small steps that can make a huge difference. I welcome you to this journey...

As you are in the process of looking for a therapist, you may already be half-way through resolving your issues. It is said that client's readiness and willingness to make changes is the strongest indicator of successful therapy outcome. As a therapist, I will accompany you in the journey of actualizing your fullest potential by assisting you to develop internal and external resources such as the sense of freedom, choices, healthy sense of self, responsibility, managing life balance, and strong support systems and relationships.

In my 40 years as a psychologist my goal has been to provide the safe nurturing environment that creates a productive client/therapist relationship. I have never forgotten my early experiences in seeking help from a therapist, wondering what it would be like, and if it would really help. I appreciated the understanding and insight I received then, and throughout my life, sometimes with my husband, I have found different kinds of therapy that were helpful to me and to my clients.

*Limited Spaces Available* Do you feel disappointed in yourself, drained of energy, or lonely? Have you recently faced a transition and are struggling to get your life back on a rewarding path? Do burdensome emotions or racing thoughts interrupt you throughout your day? Are you feeling disconnected or unsatisfied in your relationships? Do you wish you could live a calmer more connected life and still be true to yourself? Would you like to achieve more, grow more, and feel more alive? Depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief can cause ongoing pain that takes you to places you never meant to go.

Times are stressful right now and we all could use a little help. Whether your life is good, bad, ugly or somewhere in between, its good to get some insight. We all just need to stop for a second, take a deep breath and observe ourselves. Are you reaching your full potential? Is your life turning out like you've imagined? Are your needs being met? Is something missing? By seeking help, you have taken the first step to new freedom and happiness. I am able to see each individuals issues and help them develop a plan to recover or simply improve. "When we are all alone we are in bad company". You are no longer alone. There is help.

The world is hard right now. The collective and individual trauma that we all face can be suffocating and lonely. Grief, anxiety, depression: they are all heavy and hard to carry without help. Maybe you've gotten help before and are back to a similar place. Maybe you are scared to reach out and share your experience with someone you don't know. Sometimes we just need a little perspective and other times we need someone who can do the hard work of helping us become our authentic self. Whatever your situation is, I am here for you. Big issue or small, you matter to me.

"Trauma, transition and transformation". I am committed to helping people empower themselves and promote their well-being by creating a nurturing and safe environment for strength-based, culturally sensitive, trauma informed and compassionate counseling. Together we will draw from different ways of understanding situations and different forms of collaboration to find what works best for you. This may include traditional talk therapy as well as exploring healing through other forms of therapy such as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the practice of mindfulness.

I work with individuals, couples, and families to address issues ranging from relational conflict to the broad spectrum of mental health. Through an eclectic approach utilizing cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems-based modalities, I explore current problems within the social, cultural, and environmental context of life experiences and the impact these experiences have on both physical and mental health. I often approach the presenting issue as a symptom and endeavor to assist clients in developing an understanding of the function that problem serves and how to achieve that same function with more desired outcomes.

You may be seeking change, healing, or understanding as you exist in the relationships and situations around you. Whatever your reasons may be, my hope is to provide a safe space for transformation to occur. I work within the context of relationship, believing they are what shape us, harm us, and ultimately heal us. Therefore we will work together as we explore opportunities for you to step further into your own voice and longings, finding freedom from anxiety, stress, depression, and fear. Making the decision to enter therapy is admirable. I look forward to meeting you wherever you may be.

The soul can find it's self as long as it knows some one will hold it gently and carry it's song until it is ready to sing again. USING a variety of approaches for creative expression ( Body Focused awareness, Art materials, Writing, Sand Tray, Play therapy...) and drawing on experience in Dream work, Adult & Child Attachment, Trauma Recovery Work and Internal Family Systems, clients can work with trauma and find ways to shift debilitating internal tensions .

I am unable to accept new clients at this time. Relationships may be difficult to say the least. Sometimes we feel blindsided by life's twists and turns. We all struggle at times to feel understood or with self doubt, while searching for solutions to overwhelming problems. Whether you are an individual or couple troubled by a present, past or current event, taking that first step, towards talking to someone who may be able to help sort things out, may be one of the most difficult things you do. I would like to make it a little easier.

Therapy is something you have probably contemplated for awhile. It takes a lot of courage to work on tough issues that are making your life less fulfilling than you have envisioned. People seek counseling for different reasons. It can be something from your past that you feel it is time to work on or help finding your direction and motivation to reach your goals. I work with you to overcome whatever blocks are in the way of living the life you want to live.The important thing is to bring more joy into your life.

I'm interested in working on your goals and helping you change perspective on any self-defeating thoughts you might have. Talking about a problem, issue or concern can be cathartic. Anxiety and depression are all too common in today's fast paced technology driven culture. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy takes on multiple evidence based therapeutic approaches that can help you be the best version of yourself.
