Every single one of us go through seasons that are hard. Sometimes the best thing that we can do for ourselves and our families during these hard times, is to invest in our own emotional and mental health. In my counseling practice, I provide help for individuals who are dealing with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, grief, and difficulties with life transitions. I also enjoy working couples in premarital and marriage counseling. I genuinely believe that hope can be found in even the most difficult of situations.

I have spent years working with individuals and helping them through addiction, trauma, anxiety and relationship troubles. Often co-occurring disorders such as codependency and depression live just under the surface and make it hard to sustain a life of meaning and purpose. When these issues are addressed, true healing is possible. I love to assist people in discovering their true self by working through their thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

“We are never more fully alive, more completely ourselves or more deeply engrossed in anything than when we are playing”. -Charles Schaefer. Play is vital for children to express themselves and learn about their surroundings and general environment. In addition to exploration, it is essential for their development. Allowing the space for them to play freely generates the possibility of understanding their world and their motivation. Instead of the traditional format of communication, we often learn more about a child's thoughts, feelings, motivations, and struggles by watching them play.

After more than 13 years of counseling; I believe growth is hard, even painful..... but life is also. We can control how we react to things that happen, processing them, or holding things inside avoiding them which can hurt us and our loved ones more. Are you pretending, running, numbing, or repeating patterns in choices or relationships and suffering because it is scary and hard to look at yourself? The more we ignore things, the stronger they seem to get. But, I believe by honestly sharing you can transform pain, heal from trauma, see more clearly or gain perspective, and change your story to change your life!
