I believe that everyone has to cope with life changes, relationship struggles, substance abuse, and other mental health issues and sometimes, finding a successful way to cope with these changes can be hard. I strive to work collaboratively with people who want help to understand the life changes and develop strategies to cope. Therapeutically, I work with clients from a humanistic, client-centered ideology. However, I do not believe there is only one approach to working with someone and instead prefer to collaborate with clients to find an approach that works for them to make counseling a successful experience.

We will not try to make you do what somebody else wants you to do. We start with your goals & find ways to help you develop the necessary skills. We have found that, if a person's individual wishes are not represented in the solution, it will not work in the long run. So there is a strong emphasis on helping each person take responsibility and control over their own happiness. Some things are better handled individually, and some things are better handled with both people in the room. Our unique blend of individual & couples therapy is quite effective.

People see counselors for many different reasons. Some folks have mental health struggles such as anxiety or depression and therefore come to therapy for treatment and help. Others come to therapy for other life problems such as relationship problems, stressful work environments, worries about their future or their kids, struggles with their faith and spirituality, or grief and loss, etc. Counseling is an investment in the betterment of your life.

I help folx improve the satisfaction of their life through nurturing their relationship with food, their bodies, and through finding harmony with their trauma history...sometimes all at once. I use EMDR to address these issues and more, and offer EMDR in an intensive format to reach peak trauma resolution in shorter amounts of time than the traditional therapy format. If you're finding it difficult to move forward in your life- to achieve your goals and feel like your best self, you could be held back by your own limiting beliefs, and I'm ready to help you push past those beliefs to find your truest, authentic self.

You may be noticing that you are struggling with the stress and anxiety that life brings. You also may see changes in your mood, motivation, and self-worth because of it. Naturally, that may spill over into your work, personal relationships, and family relationships. You may also resort to unhealthy behaviors like substances, food, video games, etc. just to feel better, or not feel at all, only for a short while. You are not alone in how you are feeling, and there is also room for you to grow and heal to be your best and healthy self. You deserve better, and I can help you get to a place where you start to give yourself better.

Waitlist for new clients
I have a Ph.D. from the University of Notre Dame and have been working with children, families and individual adults for 25+ years. What I have learned in that time is that we all have rough patches in life. I have also learned that counseling can help, but it is the match between client and counselor that makes all the difference. Clients that match best with me are reflective and have a good sense of humor. It also helps if they have some quirky parts to their personality. I have found these traits help people get through the rough parts of life. Also, I think those traits are the best match for me because I have them too.
