You are stuck in the same pattern, numbing out, watching tv, not paying attention to your wants and needs. Instead sticking with what you've always known, asking yourself why can't I just make a change? You wonder what's wrong with you. You know what you need to do, you just don't do it. You talk to yourself, hype yourself up even, only finding yourself still stuck in that rut, hours spent on the couch, binge watching, unmotivated and hoping tomorrow might be different. You are so mad at yourself! You just want to do something good for yourself, to start a better habit but once again, you go to bed not having made a single change.

I help people gain freedom from their issues with a revolutionary technique taught by my mentor, Marisa Peer, voted Britain’s best therapist. With RTT I can fix anything from skin conditions to weight issues, to phobias, to addictions, to chronic illness and disease, in just 1-3 sessions. I’m still seeing traditional therapy clients, but since my accreditation in RTT, I’m focusing on moving my practice to exclusively RTT and coaching clients. My target client includes anyone who has been unable to fix or heal from any type of issue, they’ve tried other ways, but have been unsuccessful! RTT is the missing link that can free you!

I specialize in psychological assessment, including assessment of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, problems with math, and problems with writing. I provide autism evaluations, as well as assessments for many other types of behavioral and emotional concerns. I also specialize in evaluations to assess for giftedness and am involved with a variety of gifted groups. I conduct testing necessary for private school admissions and for accommodations on standardized tests (SAT, ACT, LSAT, etc) and in higher education settings. I work with clients of all ages, from young children to adults.

My approach to counseling is to create a safe environment where we can join together in working through whatever you are struggling with. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are struggling with a variety of personal and relational problems, and seek to restore hope, meaning, and connection. My hope is that through counseling you will feel more known and connected to yourself and to others.

Are you feeling stuck in your life right now? Are you feeling overwhelmed with your life circumstances and not sure what to do next? Are you going through some changes and transitions in your life and feel uncertain about what direction to take? Have you decided that you want things to be different but find yourself unsure about how to make that happen or how to make changes last?

Welcome! No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you with embodying wellness in all areas of your life.

The vast majority people who seek therapy have, through no fault of their own, suffered loss and trauma which has caused painful consequences for their lives. The best way to heal from those losses is to first have them accurately identified and then to be gradually helped to express one's thoughts and feelings about them to a supportive listener. With such support one's experiences are validated as real and one begins to recognize one's strength and courage under the most challenging of circumstances. The opportunity to speak the truth about the painful facts of one's life to a supportive therapist is what heals.

Do you wonder, sometimes lying on the bed at the mid hour of night, that life could be different: maybe lighter, with a little bit more hope; and your pounding heart can slow down and feel some peace; when you look out, you can smile and sense trust? Is there part of you that want to embark on a journey of healing and growth, to build nourishing relationships with your own self, with others, and with the life at large, to lay the foundation for a life of meaning and joy?

Are you looking for a space to explore sexuality and/or gender identity? Are you looking for a professional who is affirmative, empathetic, and experienced working in the queer community? Look no further than Mending Hearts Counseling.

Through our therapeutic relationship, we identify goals for managing stress, learning new coping methods, and improving relationships. If you're coming to therapy for identity-related challenges we will find ways to work to meet your goals.

People start to heal the moment they feel heard, and everyone has a story to tell. As your (or your teen's) therapist, I'll support you as you heal from your past and present, gain personal insight, release what no longer serves you, grow in your relationships, forgive yourself or others, embrace your authenticity, explore your purpose, claim your power, find your harmony and thrive. I will meet you where you are, provide a safe space for your unique story, and walk the journey with you. I'm passionate about helping teens and adults become more authentic, grounded versions of themselves.

Men, women, individual and relationship therapy. Dr. Pam Mauch and I created True Love Ways Relationship Success tools. We can teach you communication skills that will not only help you prevent destructive arguments, they will also help you enjoy a more safe loving relationship. Safety in relationships keeps people together. We developed these skills over the last thirty years working with couples and individuals.

At Be Restored Counseling our approach to therapy is very relational. I take time to get to know my clients and understand the experiences in life that have led them to me. I believe the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world is through the lens of our experiences. Therefore, I believe healing within and in relationships begins with a safe theraputic attachment. I find great joy in partnering with individuals and couples as they bravely take steps towards healing! Through advanced training in trauma and sexual healing my hope is to provide a safe place for you to Be Seen, Be Connected, Be Loved, & Be Restored!

Whether you are struggling in your relationship, dealing with loneliness from the multiple issues we've dealt with the past year (pandemic, grief, trauma), or simply needing to process some things with someone objectively, I believe the therapeutic relationship can be a platform for deep transformation and continued growth.

I work with couples who struggle with conflict. Their interactions are filled with “Why!?” “What’s wrong with you!?” and “Are you fucking kidding me?” They’re tired of feeling pissed off and shut out. What started like a dream feels like a nightmare. They just want to feel good about their relationship. I also work with men who struggle with anger and depression. They feel like a car that’s running without any coolant. It’s a grind and the “fuck its” are being handed to everyone like candy. They might be totally shut down. They try, but ask themselves, “What’s the point?” They’re not sure what to do and it’s messing them up.

Marriage and relationships are difficult - and anyone that tells you otherwise is lying. It takes work to be present with each other in the easiest times, and is often a struggle when things are difficult. As a client-focused therapist, my goal is to help individuals and couples delve into the yuck and work together to make sense of the chaos that we are experiencing. Often times the chaos and noise combines to create a feeling of distance in a relationship - leaving what was once a partnership feeling more like roommates. I aspire to help couples overcome the obstacles, and move forward in a way that feels safe and healthy.

Adversities can rob you of peace and affect your ability to stay on life’s course. The distress experienced in today’s world can be associated with toxic stress, cycles of trauma, depression, grief, fear or experiences of racial and social injustices. The way you respond to life’s difficulties matters. True healing occurs when you give yourself permission to explore and face frightening or limiting beliefs that may live beneath emotions causing discomfort and pain.

Trauma, betrayal, low esteem, guilt, or shame does not have to continue ruling your life or relationships. Start writing your next chapter today.
