Sometimes after a traumatic event or significant life change, we are left feeling powerless, uncertain of who we are or our role in life, and hopeless about how we can move forward. Maybe we have low self-esteem or even have thought about harm or death. At Empowered Living Counseling, I often see clients who have experienced trauma, are searching for their identity, and are working to take back control of their lives. I take a collaborative and non-judgmental approach to support clients in finding meaning and empowerment, safety and healing from their traumatic experiences, and figuring out who they are and what they want in life.

Your mind is a racing machine that you can't seem to turn off! Scary and bothersome thoughts keep popping in your mind! You try to block them but they keep comping back. You can't be fully present or really enjoy yourself because they are so loud so often! Simple tasks now take forever because you battle the urge to check or repeat things over and over. You are embarrassed that people may think you're weird! But they just don't understand what it's like to think things you don't want to think and do things you know don't always make sense. You just want the thoughts and worries to stop so you can feel like yourself again.

Psychotherapy and taking the first step in initiating services can often feel awkward or almost even scary. But, the personal work you do in therapy can be one of the most rewarding efforts you can undertake.

Do you want to become unapologetically you? Do you want to find your purpose in life? Do you want to grow your confidence and self love? Do you want to improve your mindset? Do you want to identify and eliminate toxic relationships? Do you want to learn how to set healthy boundaries? Do you want to implement self-care into your daily routine? Do you want to feel empowered to take healthy risks? Do you have everything in life but still feel unhappy ? Do you work your butt off for other people’s approval and validation, but can’t find internal validation within?

Clients who participate in services with me will learn a lot about themselves as well as unique ways to cope with daily stress. My approach ties in various techniques so that each client can develop their own way of healing and not feel like they’re stuck in a specific box. I’m continuously participating in education for new protocols and techniques that are proven to work for others. Ultimately, the goal in therapy for my clients is to find relief from the hurt, pain, and stress that traumatic events can cause.

The power of therapy can be life changing. It is an opportunity for you to process present and past emotions, life stressors and transitions, all while strengthening coping skills and developing a deeper understanding of yourself. Therapy is a space to feel seen and heard in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. I am a strength-based therapist, as I believe in each individual's capacity for emotional growth and meaningful change in all stages of life. Through authenticity, collaborative discussions, and a little humor, I strive to create a warm therapeutic environment that promotes acceptance, empowerment and healing.

Each client is unique regardless of the issue which motivates therapy. Meeting with individuals or couples, I work to clarify goals and generate 'action-items'. I don't tell you what to do or what is wrong with you. I help you identify what you want and what you need to accomplish that. I help you retrieve desired resource experiences from your learning history and get them available in the current life contexts where you need them. My role includes serving as a 'translator' for couples as I help each one hear and understand what the other is trying to say.

An interesting client for me is the middle-aged male who has climbed the ladder of success only to find there is nothing there but "stuff". They are extremely depressed realizing that they are unsatisfied with their lives. So they come into therapy to start "The Male Journey". If they become humble and honest, there is a chance that they can transform their lives for the better. Often, this approach is successful with couples who are in need of relationship counseling.

Stressed? Anxious? Generally feeling overwhelmed with emotions, and need someone to talk to? Let's figure it out together! As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I put a lot of focus into trauma healing, utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. This method can be used for many different issues, as well as processing any early trauma, this is often present when we can’t quite figure out why our mind and body are always on high alert. Our bodies do really well in telling us what we need to work through. I can help you become more attuned to your needs.
