Sometimes you know what the issue is and you need to find the right person to support you in making change. Other times you need support to help you identify what needs to change. There are also times when something is beyond your control, but I can help you learn to control how you respond and how your response impacts your wellbeing. We can work together to implement change in your thought patterns or behaviors in order to reduce distress and improve your quality of life. And life feels pretty hard now. Everyone could use some extra support.

Hey there! If you find yourself reading this, you might be needing support. We all need support at one time or another. Around 80% of us will qualify as having a psychological diagnosis at some point in our lives. The counseling theory that I work from states that we all have within us our own natural highest self. Together, we would work to find out your strengths, identify what you really value in your life, and then walk together as you pursue finding that best self- whatever this looks like for you. (Email is the best way to reach me.) Feel free to email, and we can get a free 15 minute consultation call scheduled for you.

Music is a remedy of the soul, a bridge between cultures, languages, and emotions. Music Therapy is a clinical and evidenced-based healthcare profession that combines the power of music with skilled therapeutic interventions. Through musical involvement in the therapeutic context, clients' abilities are strengthened and transferred to other areas of their lives. Music therapy also provides avenues for communication that can be helpful to those who find it difficult to express themselves in words.

I am a Clinical Hypnotist & Reiki Master/Teacher. These modalities are a little bit different than traditional talk therapy. Prior to each session, I encourage an open dialogue. We will pinpoint your exact goals & needs and make a plan. I will also address any questions or concerns you may have before our actual session. Hypnosis is a targeted approach to create long lasting positive change. And Reiki (a form of energy healing) can help restore balance & heal the entire energetic system. My clients typically notice a desirable shift even after just one session.

Life can be hard for all of us - pain, disappointment, and loss are inevitable. Luckily, we humans are wired for growth, resilience, and survival. As a counselor, I offer a supportive and accepting environment in which to explore yourself, to feel connected and understood. Counseling is a safe place to unburden yourself of the things you've been carrying around, to learn more about yourself, imagine a better life, and try out new ways of being and doing.

My goal in working with you is to provide support by observing and better utilizing your strengths while identifying what is getting in your way. Together we will explore how you can better manage symptoms of trauma, depression, low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship stress while recognizing harmful coping mechanisms and behaviors that are holding you back, such as substance misuse and disordered eating.

Psychotherapy can be one of the most valuable life experiences a person can have. Yet finding the right therapist may seem like an overwhelming task. I believe that establishing trust in the therapeutic relationship is critical before any meaningful or lasting change can result from a particular "technique." It is important to feel confident in your therapist's competency, compassion and character in order to build a safe, trusting relationship in which growth and change can occur. I hope that the personal statements made by therapists in this directory will help you find a good match for your particular needs.
