Life is sometimes unexpectedly difficult and suffering can be inevitable. However, how you respond to life circumstances can drastically change your ability to enjoy life. I have worked with those that believed in lies about themselves after a traumatic incident, childhood, or their own minds. These lies can be crippling and result in anxiety, depression, addictions, school related difficulties, stress, anger, parenting, communication difficulties, relational issues, family problems, job dissatisfaction and more. I provide different perspectives that encourage personal healing and relief. Change your mind change your life

To best serve you, we offer WEEKEND and EVENING APPOINTMENTS as well as SUPERVISION FOR ASSOCIATE INTERNS and TRAINEES. There are as many different kinds of therapists as there are people in the world and the best way to gain the most benefits from therapy is to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. A goal I have is to help people recognize that to receive therapy is to receive guidance in a way that builds a person up less through advise and more so through thought provoking personal insight and unconditional acceptance.

Is your child's challenging behaviors or your own traumatic childhood getting in the way of your dreams? Are you raising an adopted or foster child with a trauma history or unexplainable difficult behaviors? Has any of these caused you to feel secretly depressed and/or fearful that no one will understand or even really care?

When nothing you try is working and life just isn't getting any better, my horses and I can help. Your session will start with increasing awareness of your body and emotions through a series of mental exercises and physical movements. When we have identified the day's concern, we will move to the barn. You will be introduced to one of our well-trained horses and you will be taught the skills needed to make improvements in your life. This could include anything from standing and talking next to the horse all the way to interacting with the horse in a small arena.
