It is understandable when life becomes difficult. It takes courage to step out and look for a new set of answers. Sometimes it's a stressor from our family, a trauma from just living life, or serving our country in the military. The challenge to cope can be extremely painful, as it commonly is, with Depression, Anxiety, loss, or events like abandonment or grief. Understanding means listening, grasping a problem, formulating a trust in judgment, and assisting a person or family in forming a plan that can keep you moving forward with your life.

Each client is unique regardless of the issue which motivates therapy. Meeting with individuals or couples, I work to clarify goals and generate 'action-items'. I don't tell you what to do or what is wrong with you. I help you identify what you want and what you need to accomplish that. I help you retrieve desired resource experiences from your learning history and get them available in the current life contexts where you need them. My role includes serving as a 'translator' for couples as I help each one hear and understand what the other is trying to say.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in work with children, adolescents and adults of all ages.

Are you looking for a counselor who is caring and has over 10 years in the mental health field? I know it is hard to find the right fit sometimes and it is very important that you connect with your clinician. I find it very important to understand my client as much as possible in our first session so I know exactly how to help them on their therapeutic journey. I help my clients by being compassionate, a good listener and giving them psychological techniques that rewire the brain in order for them to have healthier lives.

I assist people in creating powerful changes in their family dynamics and interpersonal relationships. I believe we are all worthy of having our ideal relationship with ourselves and others. False beliefs and fears can cause us to lose our ability to fully enjoy life. Together we will work on eliminating those fears and false beliefs, and identify the goals that you want to achieve, towards a life you truly desire.

I am passionate about helping people of all ages get past their past, and into living a life that is meaningful and fulfilling in the present. If you are struggling to cope with relationship difficulties, life transitions, grief and loss, or any overwhelming experience, whether past or present, I can help you navigate a path through the challenges you are facing. Our relationship in therapy provides a workspace in which you and I can partner to address ineffective behaviors and habits, explore difficult thoughts and feelings, and find some clarity about beliefs regarding yourself and your future.

My goals in practicing psychology are to help you narrow your focus, set strong goals, and deal more practically with life’s barriers. This can be an intimidating process, which is why I use humor - with a dash of hope - as essential tools. I am skilled in individual and family interventions, executive and consultative coaching, and therapeutic strategies including cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution focused therapies. My experience in medical and rehabilitation settings, including private and veterans hospitals, helped me hone these skills for work with clients from all walks of life.

Hi, I'm Brandy, and I want to thank you for taking the time to invest in you. For making you and/or your family health a priority.

It is our most challenging seasons that usher in the deepest healing. Gam zen ya’avor, this too shall pass. When life gets hard it is easy to feel stuck and challenging to feel hopeful.

Starting your mental health journey can be overwhelming. Sometimes it is a struggle to know where to begin or find the words to describe how you feel. We can tuck trauma away like a book on a bookshelf waiting to be picked up and read. Trauma is not always associated with war. It can be something that can be seen as seemingly small, like growing up in a lonely household, or it can be seen in surviving a car accident. Wherever you are in your life, whether it is struggling to begin a new career, having a major life event, or maybe it is time to address your social anxiety, I would be honored to extend a helping hand.

Hi, I'm Heather, pronouns she/they! I'm an LCSW and I have 10+ years of experience providing therapy to people who are feeling stuck, unheard, and/or trapped within our system of social norms and unrealistic expectations. I identify as queer and have worked with clients in all stages of recognizing their queerness. I also have experience working with those who have experienced trauma whether due to their sexuality, abusive relationships, upbringing, or otherwise.

Coming to therapy can be anxiety inducing, but you'll be glad you came! My goal as a therapist is to offer a safe, warm, judgement free environment to allow others to be their authentic selves. I specialize in treating mood disorders, including anxiety disorders and depression. I also work with the LGBTQIA+ population. If you have been burned by another therapist, give therapy with me a try. I believe therapy should be a conversation and a collaboration between us. I'm here to give you the tools to have a better life, and it would be an honor to help you.
