Family Therapy in Crawfordville, FL

I have extensive experience with mood disorders, trauma and addictions and work with all ages. I am trained in EMDR and use that technique with both children and adults if appropriate. My clients often state when they first spoke to me they felt immediately at ease and did not feel judged. I am able to assist my clients in seeing patterns in their life story and work to identify and change core beliefs such as "I'm not good enough", "I'm defective" or "I cannot trust others."

I could tell you all about my 20+ years of trainings/certifications, therapeutic methods, and the usual psychobabble jargon professionals use. However, if you are like most people, your main question is: "Can you help me in my situation?". To be honest, I don't know if I can help you until we meet and explore what is going on in your life that has lead you to this search. Since 1994, I have assisted thousands of individuals, couples, and families find direction, solutions, and peace in their lives.

I feel privileged when a distressed family, couple, or individual allows me to accompany and guide them through their healing journeys. My clients include adolescents and adults who are dealing with issues such as anticipatory or post-death grief, difficulty adjusting to life transitions (including but not limited to adolescence, launching of children, empty nest, job loss), depression, stress or anxiety, traumatic stress, couple problems, divorce, blended or adoptive family adjustment, and adult survival from childhood sexual abuse.

I also realize they are not magic, nor do they promise ten easy steps or a quick fix for emotional ailments. I offer this service in hope that my clients will learn, grow, and become aware of their potential for happiness.

As one who lost a child through murder, I have had to learn how to survive the very worst in life, to live purposefully with that pain, and to find my own new Best Me.

How does trauma impact systems? This is the question that guides my practice as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Trauma is like an invasive plant, weaving its way throughout multiple parts of our lives. Untreated trauma can feel like it’s blocking all light. I’ve been working in the field of trauma since 2012. My work has taken me to Haiti, where I volunteered with an orphanage, helping staff become more trauma-informed. I’ve worked with clients of all ages and backgrounds, including children and adults who are survivors of sexual abuse.

Therapy should provide a safe, nonjudgmental relationship through which to explore those parts of you that may make you feel ashamed or afraid, to develop meaningful insights, and to discover your strengths. I have extensive experience working with people seeking to overcome traumatic life events - sexual violations, abuse, neglect, extreme acts of violence - but have found that, in the end, it can sometimes be the seemingly small, overlooked wounds that take longest to heal. No matter how stuck and hopeless you may feel, you have the power to take control and embrace the person you'd like to be.

There is often an overwhelming feeling, event, or life transition that brings someone to therapy, and, usually, that's only after they've tried to run away, ignore, or just push through "it." It’s not that you aren’t trying hard enough. You need support, and that’s ok. My goal is to support you through the process of healing and finding yourself again or for the first time. I often use EMDR to help clients reprocess traumatic or difficult experiences, to find relief from the symptoms that have been troubling them recently or for years.

I believe in a strength based approach which means every client has a natural strength that can be used to improve upon any situation.
