Navigating life can feel tough! It can seem as though with every moment life keeps changing. It seems as though you can't catch a break. The loss of a dream, a friendship, the death of a loved one. Wondering how will I ever go on? The feelings of deep sorrow take over and it is hard to comprehend the many changes life keeps bringing. Feelings of despair and being overwhelmed creep in like a theif in the night. It can feel unbearable to continue on. Thoughts start to swarm your mind and you begin to wonder if life will ever get better.

Navigating our day to day lives can be challenging when we feel stuck in the pain we have endured in the past. My goal is to empower clients by helping them rewrite their stories to strip shame, redefine their experience of being human, and create meaningful and lasting change. As psychiatrist, Claudia Naranjo said, "accept being as you are." If you find yourself struggling to accept pieces of who you are, that’s where therapy can come in. My overall hope for my clients is true acceptance of self and breaking away from the same pattern. I use a compassionate approach, through the use of psychoeducation, humor, and non judgement.

It's true that our Comfort Zones are wonderful places that keep us safe...but growth cannot occur there. My ideal client is willing to work on finding the strength within themselves to step outside of their Comfort Zones. I believe this allows one to create small changes that add up to big changes in their emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. My focus with my clients will always be progress over perfection and to build self-love and self-compassion above all. I enjoy taking a direct yet compassionate approach, utilizing humor, education, and the power that already exists within us.

Change happens. We do not always know how to adapt, but an important part of being human is accepting that we are all life long learners. It is okay to relearn how to cope, how to see ourselves, and how to interact with others. Help me help you learn how to adjust to an everchanging world by looking at your patterns in relationships, discussing parts of you that need attention, and figuring out how to build on your strengths.

Have you suffered from a Narcissistic abusive relationship? Do you tend to be a caregiver at the expense of your own needs? Have you suffered religious abuse or cult membership? Toxic relationships are not limited to romantic partners, they can be with our parents, siblings, friends, and even work relations. These kinds of experiences leave a lasting, negative impact on one’s mental and emotional well-being resulting in a life-long trauma wound. This can leave us in a state of perpetual anxiety, depression, isolation, confusion and codependency, and possible addiction.

I utilize a humanistic, collaborative and solution focused counseling approach with clients, involving actively listening to their life narrative, and exploring how it may be preventing them from reaching desired goals. In sessions, with a questioning and curious mind, we explore and dialogue on how the client may perceive things differently in their therapeutic process. Throughout, I provide support, empowering them to take responsibility in making healthy adjustments in their life. It is through the client learning the importance of self-respect, self-compassion,confidence, and humor, that they find themselves living a more wholesome, healthy, and transformed life.

People often take a long time to make the decision to enter treatment, and are not sure what to expect when they get here. What you will find is a relaxed, judgement-free zone where we can explore and work through what you want to change about your life. I have many years of experience with those managing serious mental health issues as well as those facing unusual life challenges. My many years of both clinical and graduate level teaching experience have taught me that there is no "one-size-fits-all" solution for any of my clients. We'll discuss options and do the work together. Let's talk about it!
