Therapy is about where you are and where you want to go. It is about acceptance of your values and the goals that you seek. Therapy doesn't have to be a long painful journey. Resolving conflicts, getting over issues, or addressing unwanted feelings should be a positive quest. I believe in short term therapy which has been successful with my Adult and Adolescent clients who experience depression, anxiety, trauma and other symptoms. Life Coaching-Therapy can help uncovering the patterns of feelings, thoughts or patterns of behavior that have interfered with our goals.

I specialize in working with a wide population of people from children into latter life. I do my best to create a safe atmosphere for clients to process their pain and work through problems. I am motivated by compassion and love for people as I work with everyday life concerns, behavioral issues, life transitions, anxiety, depression, life skills, complicated relationships, grief, couples, spiritual concerns, and Christian faith. Ultimately, I seek to help people find true inner healing instead of just treatment.

If you could change one thing in your life, what would it be? Is that possible? Would you be happier? What would that feel like? Is it too late to make improvements or changes? If you said, "Yes," would you consider rethinking your answer? Therapy takes courage and requires a willingness to look at the possibility of change. Or sometimes, therapy is a matter being heard - of having your say after a long time of no one listening! The world that you encounter on the other side of change can me lighter and brighter and new!

Life is sometimes messy and confusing. Experiences and painful memories weave through aspects of our lives and can be overwhelming and unbearable for anyone. Even when problems aren't so big and it would be helpful to talk to someone, we are available to listen. We can’t go back and change the beginning, but we CAN change the direction we are going now if we choose. Change IS possible!

Perhaps the most difficult and courageous decision one must make in life is to ask for help during troubling times. I practice holistic reality-based therapy, teaching clients to become agents of their own change. I will assist in identifying goals, as well as barriers, and together we will collaborate to devise and implement a set of life skills and tools that will ultimately become the backbone of positive change for an individual or family. I believe that the client-therapist relationship is the single most important factor in successful therapy outcomes.

Do you feel disconnected from yourself or struggle to manage overwhelming emotions? Do relationships feel draining or entangled, leaving you uncertain where others end and you begin? If you identify as an empath or a spiritual seeker, you may feel the burden of emotions — both yours and others' — making it hard to stay grounded and at peace. The truth is: You are already whole. This journey isn’t about “fixing” you — it’s about helping you return to yourself with compassion, curiosity, and acceptance.

Entering therapy is similar to summoning the courage to open an over-flowing closet that has been long ignored. Though daunting, with the right tools and an understanding guide, the task can become a manageable and rewarding experience. As your guide, I can help you shine a light on emotions, experiences, and relationships that you may be afraid to touch due to fear, shame, or uncertainty of how to process them. By utilizing an integrative approach, I help my clients assess and move through their emotional experiences while also applying new skills to help them reach their innermost personal goals.
