I believe we are all individuals on a unique journey and mental health treatment should align with that journey. Mental health should be valued just as much as physical well-being. Growing into the best version of ourselves doesn't have to be a difficult and impossible journey, it can be fun and exciting! We all need extra support and guidance sometimes and utilizing therapy is one of the healthiest ways to find that.

Wellness is a matter of balance. Anyone who struggles with addiction, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, or ANY experience of overwhelming emotion, can relate to a sense of imbalance. Often times we develop strategies to tip the scale. Unfortunately, we may find strategies that become part of a cycle of avoidance. I can help you break this cycle by creating strategies that promote balance, rather than a constant see-saw.

I work with clients seeking to address a wide variety of issues while fostering self understanding and personal growth. Having vast experience working with families in the community and students in a high school, I work with adolescents and their parents to address behavioral and emotional issues. In addition, I have developed a specialty in couples counseling, which comprises about half my practice. Utilizing Imago Therapy as my foundation, I teach how relationships can be a place of healing and growth, while coaching couples to utilize communication skills to create the understanding, acceptance, and connection for which humans long.

Our emotional well-being is integral to our physical health. Individual or family therapy can enhance our ability to manage life's stressors, such as sudden or chronic illness, family conflicts, financial strain, or interpersonal problems, which can lead to anxiety, depression and physical maladies. Therapy is beneficial to people who struggle with a mental illness, such as clinical depression or bipolar disorder. Enhancing insight into our problems, along with the development of healthy coping skills is empowering, and can often mean the difference between facing each day with confidence or avoidance of living the best life possible.

My ideal client might be in any stage of addiction awareness. Might be considering whether they have a problem, whether they can stop on their own but need support, are ready to do what is necessary to stop drinking or using and sustained recovery support. There really is no ideal client, it is what the person needs at the time they are ready to ask for some help. Then we sit down and talk and come up with an initial plan always remembering that it will probably change. I want to meet the client where he or she is in the path of recovery from addiction.

All I could ask for in a client is a willingness and openness to learn and grow together in the therapeutic journey and relationship. Some of the areas of concern that we can tackle together are anxiety, intrusive thoughts, depressive symptoms, mind-body connection, existential crisis, relationship struggles, issues with communication and coping, low self-esteem, and counseling for grief/loss. Together, we will reveal the different triggers, limiting beliefs, and experiences that have molded your perspectives and reactions to things in life.
