Symptoms draw our attention to areas that need care. That is often where we start. What is bothering you and what might be underneath? Together, we can expand your understanding of what is troubling you and build on your innate resilience. Sometimes it is as simple as just being heard. But when it is not, shifting thoughts, words, and actions may provide relief and develop improved coping skills. (Heads up: sometimes it gets worse before it gets better) If you've had enough, if you are done avoiding or pointing fingers, if you are reading to make changes, then let's do this. Process groups available T & W.

I am passionate about supporting individuals in their pursuit of finding understanding, connection, and self-compassion in their life experiences. I have committed myself to diversifying my education and approach to counseling through webinars, books, research, and conferences. I believe moments of our greatest struggle can also hold the most potential for growth and self-discovery. By giving ourselves a supportive space to explore the places that feel painful or stuck, we open ourselves to a wealth of information about our deepest desires, strengths, and wisdom. This makes it possible to live with greater self-compassion.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD and/or life changes like divorce or moving? Is your child or teen having a tough time and need support to get back on track? Are parenting challenges rising to the forefront? If so, you or your family members don't have to go it alone. I can help you or your family member learn tools to reduce anxiety/OCD, decrease depression, improve your mindset, and increase your ability to cope with the changes in your world. Sometimes it can be helpful to have someone outside of your family and friends to get support from, and a trained licensed therapist is the way to go.

Many people come to me with prior experiences of therapy that were not helpful. This happens for many reasons but sometimes it's as simple as it wasn't the right fit. A wise mentor explained that "all human growth and healing takes place in the context of relationship, from infancy on". Therapy is a relationship of growth, change, healing. Many people are driven to therapy because of suffering in current or past relationship. Often the most challenging and hurtful relationship we have is the one with one's self. The "right" therapist is one that makes moving through this vulnerable process possible and bearable.

While I have been serving the Napa community for over 25 years, my goal has been to help clients achieve greater effectiveness in facing life's challenges. Within a safe supportive environment, I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy and other techniques to help clients develop effective coping skills to manage problematic situations, thoughts, behaviors, and emotions, such as anxiety and depression. The objective is to help my clients achieve a greater sense of emotional well-being, along with the ability to clarify goals and take meaningful steps to achieve them.

My entire therapeutic approach is based around your needs, your experiences, and your strengths. I won't assume I understand your situation. Instead, I will listen and get to know your unique experience. I won't dictate answers or determine your path. But I will be honest with you about what I see, and I'm not afraid to tell you when something isn't working. While I take pride in my education and experience, I am most proud of my ability to engage my clients, help them to feel comfortable, and earn their trust.

I enjoy working with clients who are sensitive and seek help understanding and coping with the lessons behind their current problems. I teach coping strategies. I have worked with many issues including depression, anxiety, stress, and overcoming body image dissatisfaction. I have published a book to help people in this area called, "Roll With It" available on Amazon and most bookstores. I help people connect to their higher spiritual nature and their purpose in this life. I am a Reiki Master and natural intuitive, and I have been seeing clients for more than 40 years.

Life is a wild journey. There is so much to navigate through, and many of us do not have a road map. With no directions to guide us, we often get stuck circulating around the same issues. We repeat patterns of thoughts, behaviors, actions. We overanalyze. We shame ourselves. Anything can trigger these cycles: trauma, drama, emotions, a sense of grandiosity…

There are many reasons for seeking therapy, but most often the goal is to feel better, live more fully, or improve coping skills. I believe that effective therapy is tailored to the presenting issue, specific treatment goals, individual temperament as well as an ongoing assessment of effectiveness. My style is one of openness, acceptance, curiosity, respect, optimism, and encouragement.

Everyone experiences difficulties at times, including problems that we create for ourselves and troubles we have in responding to the opportunities and challenges in life. These may be problems in love or work, symptoms such as phobias, panic attacks, or extreme shyness, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic reactions, or self-destructive impulses.

Are you yearning to be your authentic self but feel held back by anxiety, hopelessness, or unhelpful old beliefs? Do you notice unhealthy relationship patterns you want to change? In my practice I use a method of holistic psychotherapy called Soul Lightening Acupressure which incorporates energy work and is gentle, effective, and efficient. As energy that has been lodged in your body from trauma or stress flows freely again, old patterns of thoughts and behaviors can clear, insights arise, and rapid and lasting healing can occur. After a session you will usually feel calm, centered, grounded, and lighter with new sense of clarity.
