Everyone experiences challenges in their lives. I prefer to walk alongside you as you discover how to heal and move forward to the life you imagined. You are the expert and I am the guide. Wellness, grief, bereavement, adoption, trauma, aging, chronic illness have been the primary focus of my work. Using solution focused, trauma centered, mindfulness and CBT strategies have been most effective in my work. No charge for 15 minute consultation to determine if we would be a good fit. I was born and raised in the Midwest and moved to Alaska in 1975. My life has always been filled with horses or dogs and the outdoors.

Clients often come to me when they are exhausted from their thoughts, emotions, urges or memories. These issues can take a toll on relationships and a person's sense of self and leave us feeling isolated and alone. I work with people of all ages who experience common and complex problems including: depression, anxiety, burnout, the effects of traumatic circumstances (flashbacks, rumination, dissociation, avoidance, etc.), anger management skill development, codependency in relationships and establishing boundaries, ADHD and other neurodiverse thinking and social skill development for youth.

I specialize in work with clients who are dealing with grief, healing from abuse, navigating women’s issues, and struggling with anxiety, depression and other life and mental health concerns. I have a special love for working with those in the LGBTQ plus community, and am passionate about offering an inclusive and healing space for all. I offer individual, family and couples counseling sessions, and enjoy working with people of all ages who are looking for growth and change.

She/her: I love working with people who want to get to know themselves as they heal from trauma, grief, depression, transitions, and anxiety. Witnessing clients make contact with their inner world, ancestors, emotions, bodies, cultures, spirits, wisdom, and parts is a gift. I love walking alongside people as they enter into a deeper relationship with themselves, and find the medicine they need from inside. May all wounded parts within find dignity and heal.

If you have had a loss or traumatic event happen in your life, leaving behind a sense of feeling unsafe, isolated, no sense of who you actually are, or as if you don't have a purpose, there is support waiting for you here. Often this takes a toll on the body and mind, leaving joy in the dust and sometimes can feel like an imposter who is living a life that is no longer yours to live. Healing and renewal can happen, more than just taking care of the symptoms, but by going down to the root cause of the situation. This helps to have life-long lasting change not only to live the life you want, but to also enjoy the journey.

I work with clients to improve their coping strategies to help regulate emotions and heal. Many of my clients have struggled with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma or grief. Some clients find themselves navigating life transitions and struggle to not lose themselves in the process. Together, we create a therapy plan that works with your goals. Much of my therapy involves exploring past and present attachments, strengthening your internal and external resources and teaching skills that you can use daily to feel better.

Whether it is increased anxiety or stress due to challenging life events or a general sense of unease, there are effective strategies you can learn to support your well-being. If you or your child struggle with issues related to body image, social stress/anxiety, lack of focus or clarity, perfectionism, challenges at school/work, maintaining healthy boundaries, communicating your needs, challenging relationships, or major life transitions/events, it is possible for you to live your life with more peace, clarity, and empowerment.

Please note my location. With 30+ years of practice in Anchorage, I appreciate the power of mindful listening with couples, individuals and groups. As a certified emotion focused therapist I find a respectful way of being present with others so their deep truth can be understood and assist them in finding their life forward energy. In our hurried culture our voices risk not being heard inside ourselves. We overwhelmed adults may find our vulnerability locked away, not even shared with our loved ones. It is a privilege to earn trust to share people's journey in a safe manner.
