Having years of experience doing counseling and working on my own family I have learned that I can keep taking steps to towards hope to create positive permanent change.
In my life, hope is not an end but a beginning. I have the power of choice. Fueled by hope, which is the belief that things will get better, I decided to focus on doing what it took to change my life. My road to hope helped me see and pursue solutions that were hidden behind a thick fog of despair due to growing up in a dysfunctional home. One thing I tell others is “you cannot give to others what you haven’t been taught”. My parents lack the hope to break the cycle of dysfunction of their past family upbringing. I believe my parents forgot they had a choice to change things.

For 20+ years, I have counseled individuals, couples, and families, served as youth pastor, marriage/family counselor, worked within in-patient and out-patient treatment centers, probate/drug courts, and psychiatric hospital settings.
Life can be tough, with it's many challenges, distractions, and unpredictable tragedies and disappointments. Fortunately, you don't have to face them alone. I believe that through strategic planning, new learned coping skills, and spiritual guidance, personal and relational healing is possible. I love working with couples, but believe that even one person can make a difference in the condition of a relationship as they learn better ways to communicate and deal with their own issues.

I find it a privilege to have the opportunity to assist you, your child, your family, or your relationship.
Howdy! The techniques I utilize are from the foundations of Person Centered and Solution Focused Theory with some art therapy mixed in (if you are comfortable with experimenting with creative therapy). To begin, we will discuss what goals you would like to accomplish during our time together. My philosophy of therapy is, I feel you are the authority in your life and therapy can be a catalyst to identify barriers keeping you from achieving goals. We join together as a team to process, help identify goals, and strategize in making the positive change you would like to see in your life.

Common struggles I help with include family of origin issues, anxiety, depression, self-worth issues, & adjusting to difficult life transitions such as graduating high school or college and venturing out on your own for the first time.
You may often find yourself wondering, why am I like this? You react to things in a way that you wish were different. You’re aware that the way you think/feel is irrational, but you can’t seem to change it. You feel stuck & are seeking to understand yourself better. Many of us come from difficult families - which is our first experience about the world, often setting the standard for what is "normal" to us. If you come from a family with a history of unhealthy patterns, it is likely that you are struggling as you enter adulthood. Common patterns include absent parents, unstable relationships, emotional/physical abuse, or addiction.

If you find your child to be struggling, let's work together to create an environment and build a toolkit where your child and family can thrive.
Does your child or teen struggle behaviorally or to regulate their emotions? Do you at times feel like they are bouncing off the walls and unable to maintain focus? Have you gotten a phone call home from school about concerns related to your child? Maybe you have noticed an increase in anxiety or depression. Or their social skills are limiting their friendships creating a negative school experience. Being a child and teen in our day and age can be extremely challenging as they face heightened emotions, social media expectations, academic challenges, sports pressures and more.

You don’t have to worry that your family and your life will be ripped apart.
Please note: I am not currently accepting BC/BS for marital therapy. Sometimes it feels really hard to communicate with your spouse. What used to be small problems start to feel too hard to fix. The bigger problems become issues that just seem easier to avoid altogether. Other times, it feels like you don’t enjoy the same activities anymore. You can spend time together in the same house all week and feel more like roommates than lovers. You might be good at running a household together, but wonder where the friendship has gone.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
