Do you ever feel stressed or overwhelmed by others' expectations? Do you sometimes struggle to feel fully engaged with life? Battling with an addiction or eating disorder is a painful process that is driven by secrecy and control. My goal is to help break down these walls and bring what hides in the darkness into the light in a nonjudgmental, caring, and compassionate manner so you can begin to see a different way of living. I truly believe only when you feel enough support and safety are you able to begin making choices for health and recovery.

Are you overwhelmed with the day to day mess? Are you still recovering from the impact of the pandemic? Perhaps you are a recovering overachiever, looking to set boundaries, or undergoing complex family dynamics. Did you think that being an adult would be easier?! As a person who is learning & growing as an adult daily, it's easy to feel bogged down. Do you want to be more emotionally aware & compassionate to yourself and others but don't know where to start? Life doesn't have to feel like this and I'm here to help! Let's work together so the load can get lighter. Change is right around the corner.
The curriculum used for this group is from the Life Model. We utilize this neurotheology approach to build joyful and life giving connection with one another and reflect healthy and accurate identity to each member. Personal life experiences are shared intermittently as group members feel strong enough to lean on one another for support which moves them into deeper freedom and recovery. The idea is for members to utilize the group to find a place of connection and safety so that they can find their true identity.

Linehan Board Certified DBT Programs - Just because you look like an adult on the outside doesn't mean you always feel like one on the inside.

You are not alone - and this therapeutic group is designed to provide you with a comprehensive set of skills that will equip you with the confidence and ability to match your inside state with your outer expression.

The typical clients I work with are like you and me, usually have successful careers, have a faith orientation, although not always, and have a tremendous longing to find, repair, or revitalize something gone wrong in themselves or in relationship with those closest. They are individuals and couples who are hurting at their core, who want more than just a quick fix, a few techniques, or merely a listening ear. They want answers, real, deep, transforming answers. They realize deep down that it is probably going to take longer than they want or expect. But, they are longing and willing to do whatever it takes to get to a better place

Professionally led and clinically focused PROCESS GROUPS FOR MEN. A supportive, yet rigorous environment created for men who struggle with intimacy and relating to others. Honest vulnerability, and the courage to face one's own inadequacy and paradoxically one's surprising sufficiency as men, is required. An excellent extension of a client's 12 Step Group work; accountability group work; Marriage or Individual counseling. The focus will be on one's personal narrative and connecting the historical choices to deaden and harden one's heart (at great detriment to ourselves) and CURRENT self-defeating strategies, negatively impacting our relationships today.

Real change is hard, long-term work not meant to be done alone. Dysfunctions around sexuality, food, money and work (the so-called "process" addictions) are primarily a struggle with intimacy. One needs to understand THE FUNCTION OF one's own self - destructive behaviors: that self hatred is not low self esteem; that contempt for others is not good self concept; that my wife is not the problem; and that sex is not my greatest need. I am several steps ahead of you on a journey I encourage you to take. Real change is hard, don't do it alone. :)
The purpose this group is to help teens develop positive self-esteem and self-worth. The group will also focus on emotion management and how to navigate social/peer relationships. All sessions will integrate mindfulness techniques. Cost: $40/session, $80 for the initial session to build rapport and explain the group process.

It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help. I am honored to be apart of each client's journey. I enjoy working with adolescents, and adults. With over 10 years of working in both the education and mental health field, I specialize in all issues as they relate to education. I also have a passion for working for women who are navigating difficult life transitions. My approach is warm, encouraging, with a touch of humor (which I believe to an important part of the therapeutic process). I believe in working with my clients to identify their inner strengths. I am looking forward to learning more about you and helping you grow.
Goals: Understand and process how one's past is currently showing up in relationships. Learn how to re-regulate one's nervous system in order to experience more connection, joy, and safety in relationships. Participants will learn self-regulation tools--these can be used to help participants feel grounded and supported, explore how one's backstory continues to show up in current relationships, learn how trauma stored in the body manifests in physical health symptoms, connect their physical/body sensations to the origins in their own story, and create safe connection with other participants in the group.

It’s okay to ask for what you need. This is something I need to remind myself of on a daily basis. So many of us focus intently on making sure everyone else is taken care of and we completely abandon ourselves and ignore our own needs. This leaves us feeling exhausted, depleted, and quite frankly, resentful because we think to ourselves “why isn’t anyone taking care of me?” I teach my clients what a healthy relationship looks like because if this wasn’t modeled to you at some point throughout your life, no one can expect you to know what it means.
This program is for teens ages 14-18 and young adults ages 19-24. This program is designed to teach the four following modules of DBT: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness. Groups will be held via teletherapy. We require one parent to attend at least two parent group meetings as part of the teen DBT program. DBT requires an individual therapist to be seen regularly while attending group. Please note that a face-to-face (or telehealth) individual screening is required before the beginning of the group. If you are interested please contact me for more information.

We're supposed to drink enough water, get enough sleep, exercise, save money, make money, work hard while having work/life balance, be a great spouse/parent/sibling/child, travel more...the list is endless. We are taught to engage life at a grueling and intense pace that is becoming increasingly difficult in the backdrop of a tumultuous world in crisis. I don't view mental health in a vacuum; sometimes depression and anxiety are appropriate and healthy responses to stressful and unprecedented life events. I teach solution-oriented skills to address feelings, improve communication and live in a healthy way that honors your humanity.
