With my background in fitness and physical therapy of patients with chronic pain and as a substance abuse counselor, I am convinced that every individual has the desire to be seen, heard and understood. I do believe that I have been uniquely wired to provide insight, acceptance, understanding and support when life gets hard, lonely or confusing. A good portion of what I offer is to help you understand & express your feelings, needs, desires, longings and hope in a safe tranquil environment. You will receive in return a therapist who is equally open with her emotions and able to model genuine relationship in our sessions.

As a researcher and counselor, I am honored to hold the information and wisdom pertaining to creating and sustaining optimal wellbeing and satisfaction in life. I consider my counseling practice to be the space in which this knowledge is shared, unfolding as part of a collaborative process that is unique for each individual clients' journey. By shining a light on the "here and now" (inner dialogue), I work with my clients to acknowledge and understand the patterns of thinking, behaving, and feeling that may be causing stagnation (and pain), so that we can then move from where one is currently at, to where one wants to be.

From the outside looking in, you are tough, resilient and there is nothing you can't manage on your own. But inwardly, you feel consumed by anxiety, hindered from memories of the past on constant replay and intrusive thoughts about the future interrupting your concentration on other things. Your sleep is imbalanced and you feel little to no motivation to care for yourself in small basic ways each day. You feel overwhelmed by life's expectations and are starting to avoid the people, places and activities that used to make you smile! You want change, to feel happy with your choices, and to be fulfilled with yourself once more.

Confidentiality, trust, and therapeutic compatibility are essential for the successful resolution of a person's problems in counseling and psychotherapy. They form the foundation for an honest dialogue between client and therapist that enhances a person's ability to deal with what is true in their life. As a therapist, my job is to help clients identify and resolve those truths and move on, feeling better about themselves and more confident in their ability to handle the difficult problems and challenges that life presents.

Just respectful, specialized support from an Alaskan who gets it. Teletherapy is an art that takes expertise to do well. Reach out today.

I look forward to helping with issues that have been hurting you and your loved ones. For some people it’s anxiety or depression affecting them in the here and now. For others it’s about something that happened to them years ago and continues to interfere in their life today. It may also be simply a recent change at work, pressures at home, friends, or school. Whatever the reason is, I am here for you. I work with you in a client centered manner, often using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to identify a goal that fits your needs and help you achieve that goal. I generally work with adults and teens, individually, or as a family.

My style as a therapist can best be described as eclectic, as I draw from a variety of techniques and theoretical orientations. That being said I tend to be highly client centered, which means I assume clients are the authorities about their own systems. In therapy, it's my job to describe what the science of psychology has to offer given the presenting problem and my professional experience in the area. However, it's my clients who get to decide how this information is applicable to their lives. More about my therapeutic orientation can be found on my website: www.reynoldstherapy.com

Thank you for being here. Sometimes we feel uncertain about the direction of our lives or feel stuck in our career paths, relationships, sexuality, identity, and emotionality. There is a desire for change and feels like there's something missing; perhaps the spark you used to feel. Sometimes, stress, trauma, anxiety, and other internal and external factors are acting as roadblocks and you have little energy or knowledge to push through it alone. I would love to collaborate with you in navigating these challenges through internal exploration with focus on insight oriented approach and coaching to assist in your behavioral change.
