Are you feeling lost, stuck, or unfulfilled? Find yourself escaping into repetitive and self-defeating patterns of thought and behavior? If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, phase of life issues, problems with self-confidence or motivation, problematic alcohol or substance use, or just recognize that you may benefit from a supportive conversation with someone outside of your typical network of friends and family members, I would love to talk to you. My hope is that we can work together to help you create a life that you do not feel the need to escape from!

Every person is different therefore every interaction is different. As humans we have patterns and the patterns you exhibit assist me to help you efficiently and appropriately for each situation we may encounter during our therapeutic relationship. Counseling is not just processing. Counseling also includes making changes, gaining self-awareness, having a willingness to gradually open up and so much more. As a counselor, I do not have “magic words” for a “fix all solution”; I will however be there as a guide for you. I can teach you techniques through evidence-based practices to help you manage what life may throw your way.

Have you been told you have PTSD? Or, do you have anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or negative self-talk that all started with a traumatic event(s)? If so, you have come to the right place. People with trauma often find themselves spending countless hours in therapy but not getting lasting relief. That is because not every therapist is specially trained to treat trauma, and not every therapy intervention is able to access the part of the brain where traumatic memories live.

I believe that as individuals make sense of their story they create the life they were designed for. Using trauma-informed modalities like Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems, I work with adults who want to heal from issues related to trauma, anxiety depression, grief, childhood neglect/ abuse, religious trauma, spiritual abuse, feeling stuck or sensing that something is just “not right."

Insight is the true catalyst for change. It’s that “a-ha moment” or change of heart that shifts your perspective and transforms your life. My approach is all about creating an atmosphere where powerful moments of insight are more likely to occur. Instead of focusing on coping with negative emotions or learning complex strategies, my aim is to share a simple, yet profound understanding that leads to lasting change. Together, we’ll unlock the clarity, peace of mind, and enjoyment that are already within you.

Do you suspect your negative moods, thoughts, and behaviors stem more from the difficulties of being a human being than on having a mental illness? Is it hard to find people who understand your pain? If so, I'm glad our paths have crossed. I focus on depression, addictions, and anxieties that have existential roots. I enjoy working with people fighting for recovery and those struggling with suicidality, aging, terminal illness, grief, loneliness, death anxiety, and loss of meaning. I believe in building new skills. But my ultimate aim is to help you find and liberate your higher Self. Together, we can get better results for you.
