Are you facing overwhelming challenges in your marriage or relationships? With your children? Are you struggling with depression or anxiety/fear? Whether you are facing a job transition, conflict in your relationship, a death of a friend or relative, or another pressing concern, therapy provides you someone to listen, to walk beside you through these experiences, and to offer guidance and support as you face new discoveries and insights to your life and well-being. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families and view therapy as your opportunity to grow healthier -- mentally, emotionally, behaviorally, relationally, and spiritually.

Are you feeling alone with your struggles? Are you open to change? I am an accepting and committed therapist with 28-years experience serving clients from many cultural backgrounds. My clients struggle to adjust to major life changes, loss, trauma, conflicts with their spouse or families. Many of my clients live with post-traumatic stress. Often these symptoms stem from anger, abuse, violence, and lack of communication skills. Together, you and I will work to move you to a place of wellness. I see clients ranging in age from 8 yrs to adult. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

Counseling has been defined as "helping others to help themselves". Our journey in life often takes unexpected and unwanted twists and turns. Sometimes a little help is all that's needed to navigate the obstacles and regain our path. It would be my honor to help you to live the life you desire. Help comes through an offer of a warm, inviting environment with a compassionate, nonjudgmental listener. My role is not to tell you what to do or what to think but to help and to guide. I would love the opportunity to talk with you to assist you on your personal journey.

I see clients with needs involving emotional and mental pain that come from a variety of different pathways, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, and trauma. I look to provide the client with evidenced based practices and interventions to allow the client, caregiver, and I to collaborate and determine the best pathway to growth. I see clients ranging in ages, from 3 to adulthood, and I work with relational problems, including families, divorce, blending families, and couples. I start with a Client Centered approach and integrate modalities as necessary to best serve my clients.

Life is full of hills and valleys, and sometimes we need help to make it through parts of our journey. I view therapy as an opportunity to provide you support and walk beside you through these challenging times. Whether you are facing a period of transition with a new job or dealing with long-term symptoms, therapy allows you to process your experiences with guidance and education to better understand your situation and work on improving it. Together, we will develop strategies to improve your life, such as constructing individual boundaries to help with improving relationships to developing behavioral plans for your children.

At some point during our lifetime, we all face problems and/or crisis. You may be struggling with an issue or perhaps you see your child experiencing difficulties. I am here to help you walk through this journey and offer hope for you in the meantime. I'd love to meet you and hear your story!

I have always been passionate about serving children, adolescents, & young adults even before I became an associate licensed therapist. Through counseling, I have found so much joy in helping clients through family conflict, ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, and traumatic experiences to name a few. I strive to operate from a family centered approach-helping the whole family heal together through our sessions and work together. Supervised by Dr. Deborah Grant, LPC-S.

Life can be hard, but you don’t have to struggle alone. Every season of life brings with it a mixture of joy and pain as well as unique challenges and uncharted emotions. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, unequipped or just in need of support and acceptance in a non-judgmental environment, you have come to the right place. I believe a safe and comfortable therapy environment in which you feel understood, respected and valued provides the best place for you to receive objective feedback to move toward growth. My counseling style is engaging, warm and client-focused with an approach that combines CBT and solution-focused therapy.

Therapy is truly my calling. I like to start where the client is at. There is not a “one size fits all” approach for therapy and I feel I must adjust and work with what works best for the client. I like for clients to be open with me about their goals and view this as a collaborative approach.

Hey, I'm Larkin and I'm genuinely glad you're here! The idea that we or our loved ones are struggling and need help can stir up a number of uncomfortable emotions that we often try to ignore. If there is one thing I believe holds true, it is that having feelings makes us human. Feelings help us understand the world, they guide our thoughts and behaviors, they impact our relationships, and when we learn to listen to what they are trying to tell us, they can help us grow. When our lives have been impacted by trauma or adverse experiences, tuning back in to our mind and body can feel daunting and that is where I come in!

I take an eclectic approach to therapy, meaning we can tailor our sessions to find what works best for you.
