Life is inevitably composed of episodes of change. From new experiences and life events to trauma and loss, transitions in life challenge ones' emotional balance. When first entering therapy I believe that it is natural to be unable to identify all of these feelings. Often you may only know that “something is off”. My goal is to sit with you through uncertainty and walk with you through the process of self-exploration and healing.

Please note: I am providing telehealth only at this time. Say no and mean it! Learn to believe in yourself! Our own thoughts/beliefs can cause us to feel ineffective or incapable. Struggling with anxiety, anger or family of origin difficulties(controlling or distant parents), low self esteem/self worth and toxic family systems can affect our ability to see ourselves realistically or be self critical. This can negatively affect our mood. You can learn to control anxiety and thoughts with techniques, practice, changing your self talk and addressing beliefs about yourself.

I am an advanced clinician in Imago Therapy. When relationships aren't working very well or are on the brink of ending, it really feels bad; like the rug is being pulled out from under you. Often there are solvable reasons for why these things happen. I am motivated by those methods such as Imago therapy and EFT which have worked so well for so many in the past to help couples develop a high degree of safe attachment in their relationships. Something, that once they have learned how to do it, they can take with them because it is portable.

Have you ever been to counseling and just felt awkward the whole time? Yeah, me too. I pride myself on making the process of counseling enjoyable, even when it's difficult, by building trust, being genuine, and being relatable as a human, not a clinician. I strive always to be intentional about how to approach each and every individual's unique situation. Whether you are wrestling with anxiety or depression, stress from big life changes, relationship troubles, or coming to grips with past traumas, I would be honored to work with you to navigate these challenges you may be facing.

You're wanting to start counseling and here you are, at the first step. So how do you choose a therapist out of a sea of faces? I think the truth is pretty simple: you go with your gut. Lots of evidence shows that it is the counseling relationship-rather than theory or modality used-that is the causal factor of change. It's my firm belief that the overriding factors needed in that relationship are trust, patience, and kindness. You'll get those from me because that's what I give myself. That's what leads to change.

Change is inevitable. So what happens when the consequences of the change are so negative they severely impact our lives? We sometimes feel stuck, unsure of what direction to proceed. In my practice, WalkinTalkinTherapy, I provide an avenue to address these changes by combining the simplicity of walking outdoors with talk therapy. Advocates of the combined approach say that being active during the session helps patients relax and open up - scientists have long known that a workout can temporarily boost serotonin levels and improve mood, the latest research shows that exercise can have a deeper and more lasting effect.

How did I get here? Relationship stress, battling an eating disorder or general mental leaves us feeling disconnected, hurt and alone. We find ourselves stuck in negative repetitive patterns of trying to solve the problem but to no resolve. We find ourselves feeling unheard or unseen which leads to wanting to argue and/or shut down/avoid. The more we try to break free from this repetitive coping pattern, the more hurt and alone we feel. We desperately long for comfort and healing. Whether this is impacting how you cope personally or getting in the way of connecting with your loved one - there is help.
