"YOUR STORY MATTERS... and the rest is still unwritten". My goal is to work in a partnership with clients to assist them in recognizing their own strengths, self worth, and resilience to promote growth and positive changes. I have 10+ years of therapy experience (including: individual, family/couples, and group therapy) addressing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges including: past hurts (trauma), substance abuse, depression, anger, anxiety, self destructive behavior, loss of touch with reality, relationship issues, and various types of adjustments to life changes. My ideal client is one who is overcoming adversity.

Life is much easier when we learn that we can improve or even control our reaction to most difficulties facing us. Learn to change "reaction" to "response," indicating a thoughtful, healthful method of reply. The ideal client will begin therapy with an open mind, a need for change, and a willingness to participate in his/her own growth process. Once you get curious about yourself, we can go places!

Are you looking for a therapist who is passionate about helping young children, teens, and adults? Look no further! My ideal client is someone who is open to exploring their issues, sharing their needs, and working with me to identify their goals. I provide holistic care to my clients and offer a range of interventions, including therapy and prevention services for families, individuals, and couples. I'm experienced in helping clients problem-solve to meet their individual needs, and I'm equipped to serve clients with developmental and learning disabilities, behavioral challenges, medical conditions, and emotional regulation.

I have expertise in integration of religion in counseling, both positively and negatively. So I actively integrate clients' Christian faith for those who seek it - in both techniques and goals (cf. spiritual maturity = balance of openness and commitment to God, self and others), while recognizing unbalanced religion is often part of clients' abusive past. So I work with my clients' values and refer out the few who can't work with mine.

We all struggle to find balance in the roles we are trying to maintain in our lives. Our past, relationship struggles, motivation, anxiety and depression can all complicate our attempts to navigate how to be the best version of ourselves. Many of us "know" what to do, but have not successfully identified ways to manifest that into action. While we cannot change the things we have experienced, or the behavior of those around us, we can identify successful ways to approach our difficulties. A part of moving forward can be gaining more awareness of the mind/body connection and exploring insight and behaviors to make lasting change.

I work well with older teens, women and couples. I am experienced with mood disorders such as anxiety, depression and bipolar. I am trained in EMDR and TFCBT for treatment of trauma, and currently am training in the specialty of Perinatal Mood Disorders.

Let's face it, the past few years have changed us all. With increased rates of exhaustion, dissociation, and burnout on the rise, everyday tasks can feel nearly impossible. Maybe you’ve experienced feeling easily irritated, constant muscle tension, trouble sleeping, impatience, or just plain emptiness. These experiences affect all areas of our lives, even our ability to care or believe it can get better. One of the best things you can do for yourself, and sometimes the hardest, is get support! Taking that first step is so hard but it can be the turning point. You are worth it!
