I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast who enjoys spending time with my family, and friends.
My approach as a human is to create a safe, inclusive, and collaborative space. I have developed a counseling practice rooted in finding meaning and purpose in one’s life. My passion for supporting others has been deeply influenced over 10 years of working with young adults aging out of foster care and youth experiencing housing instability. In addition to individual and agency practice, I have had the pleasure of facilitating fly-fishing retreats for men with cancer over the last four years. I’m interested in building upon an individual’s strengths, providing choice and freedom, and utilizing their self-determination.

While there are thousands of quality parenting, relationship, and self-help books, finding the strategies that actually make sense and work for you, your family, and your relationships is daunting to say the least.
Relationships are the center of our lives: Depression often leads to a deep sense of loneliness. Anxiety drives the people around us crazy. Stress impacts interactions with those we love. At Center Counseling, we think about people in the context of their relationships and we work to help our clients feel more whole within themselves and in their relationships. We work with Couples, Parents, Adults, College Students, Middle- & High-School students, and Families to build healthy skills and strengthen connections.

Life transitions, the demands of running a family, raising kids, a high pressure and stressful job, money concerns, and children’s needs can all erode the time and energy you have to put into your relationship. Life and relationships can be tough. What is needed to make it work often feels overwhelming, unclear, and giving up may seem like the only alternative. We need connection. We need love. We need a path. Without it, the inevitable challenges of life become incredibly difficult. But right now, you might not be thinking that.

Does it seem like you fight the same fight with your partner? Can you predict the outcome of arguments based on a repeated pattern? Has there been cheating, family conflict, or other pain points impacting your marriage or relationship? Are you wanting peace in your relationships and can't figure out how to achieve that beyond what you have tried already? I help couples and individuals understand their negative pattern, then create the change they desire.

I meet with parents first, in order to make sure I have confidence I can help and so you can make sure the way I work and who I am would make a good fit for your family.
Working with children and adolescents and their families since 1997, my emphasis has always been on how to help the adults help their kids. My focus is on finding out what a child needs and then figuring out how to help their parents, schools or caregivers meet those needs. I work with a variety of presenting concerns-from anxiety, depression, behavorial problems, grief, trauma, divorce and normal life transitions.

Let's be honest, most of us wouldn't go back to our adolescent years even if someone paid us to do so. Growing up is hard and life throws a lot at children, teens, and young adults. It is not uncommon to feel many conflicting ways about adolescence (and often times many conflicting ways at once). The things we face as we grow up impact our ability to engage, succeed, and feel accepted in our family life, our friend and peer circles, and in our academic sphere. It is my distinct honor to work with adolescents as they navigate some of the toughest years of life.

We have a variety of counselors at our group practice and can often accommodate multiple family members, to help with communication and overall well being within the family.
We were all teenagers once, and can often recall struggles, such as bullying, depression, anxiety, and fears during adolescence. Many of my clients struggle with the daily challenges of being a young person in this world. I know that the parents also struggle and I provide support for the children, and families. I also see adults and I'm happy to provide trauma based therapy to anyone aged 12 and up. My passion is to help others to grow and change in a way that complements the type of life that they want to live, rather than what they are currently struggling with. I would be delighted to be a part of your counseling journey.

Whether you are an individual, couple, family, or teen, reach out to me at Center Counseling to schedule a meeting.
Do you question the relationship you're in? Do you wonder why conflict sometimes feels so difficult? Does it sometimes feel like there are patterns there that you just can't see or understand, but that maybe if you could, they wouldn't have to continue? Sometimes we reach a point where we are ready for change; where what we have been doing in our life and in our relationships, doesn’t feel good anymore. I will help you get clear on what the patterns are AND where they come from and how to shift them.

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.
