Perhaps you're tired of the same old thing: You walk into a therapist's office, sit down and wonder, "Can this person really help?" In my office, I may be the expert, with a PhD in clinical psychology and almost 20 years of experience, but my expertise is in guiding you toward your own wisdom and your own concept of healing. If you struggle with inauthentic relationships that are disconnected, empty or wanting, know that our work is about connection, authenticity and creating a full rich life. Common struggles I see are anxiety, depression and trauma in adults, kids and couples. Bring your family, your partner, even your pets.

Food and weight have taken over your life. You're not even sure how it got this bad. Constantly comparing yourself to others and feeling like you are NOT ENOUGH makes it even worse. The battle in your head is relentless, from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed the inner voices are raging. Fighting against them is exhausting. It’s so hard holding it together when all you want is to be free of this burden. You don’t want to be a burden on others, so you smile and hold it in, all the while feeling shitty and overwhelmed. I get it I have been there, Eating disorders suck but recovery is possible! I am living proof.

Therapy is an opportunity for you to gain insight, find hope and make lasting change. I believe that help in sorting out life's endless challenges can be beneficial, allowing for increased self-awareness, the ability to change the way we handle certain areas of our lives and to feel better. Finding the right therapist for you is essential. I offer a safe and trusting environment where we can work together to explore what changes you would like to work towards and understand how your patterns developed over time. Together our focus is to help you find peace, satisfaction and contentment in your life.

Do you feel different, misunderstood, judged, embarrassed and or ashamed? Do you know how to create and enforce healthy relationships/healthy boundaries? Do you engage in negative self talk and have self esteem issues? Are you struggling with relationships at home and or at work? Are you or is someone you care for abusing substances? Together we will explore the way you make sense of the world and how your thoughts impact your feelings and behaviors. With a deeper understanding of yourself we will work on forgiveness, acceptance and making positive changes.

Play. Peace. Passion. Purpose. The four things we pursue in our lives yet struggle to keep them. I specialize in marriage counseling, Parent-Child Relationship Training, Christian counseling, and Women's recovery. My goals are to help you play more, keep inner peace, find passionate work/hobbies, and hold on to a purpose filled life. There is a light in the darkness of our struggles if you take small steps to create big change.

Therapy should be a positive experience. Having experience with a wide variety of people and their unique cultures, family structures, occupations, faith traditions and other critical aspects of diversity adds to my practice capability. I enjoy assisting individuals, couples and families with their decision to engage life and love, more effectively. My goal is to provide therapy in a positive, non-judgmental, yet effective way. When people feel stuck or no viable options to change their lives, I assist them by using a consultative approach.

When someone is faced with emotional pain, knowing what to do is difficult and counseling can be freightening. As a marriage & family therapist and social worker, it is my practice to provide a safe environment for clients to resolve their issues of concern. Using the client's expertise of self as a vital part of my team is solicited and used along with my life experience and educational knowledge to make positive changes. Validation and client strengths are part of the therapeutic process. Feeling in control of one's situation and finding hope for a healthy future can be expected.

I believe everyone needs to be respected and honored in this world. The growing up process has caused people to have and develop coping behaviors and strategies that are harmful to self and others. I view psychotherapy or counseling as a professional relationship between the therapist and client. As a client begins talking about their life, I, the therapist walks with you through your world. I will ask questions to further understand your world. Then ideas will be explored for life enhancement and positive change.

First off, congratulations for making the first step towards healing, self-love, and growth. That first step can be the hardest. Are you struggling with intrusive thoughts and memories? Crippling anxiety? Low motivation? Overwhelmed with thoughts of the future? Struggling with your relationship with food? Is self-doubt and shame keeping you from being your authentic self? Are you struggling with self-acceptance and the many challenges as an LGBTQ+ member? We can work together to overcome anything holding you back from being your authentic self. We can walk this walk together. You do not need to do it alone. Don't wait, call today!
