I do my best work with people who have experienced years of disappointment and hurt. Many of my clients struggle with divorce, drug use, family problems, childhood hurts, church hurt, bullying, sexual abuse, bereavement, guilt, low self-esteem, and trauma. Many of my clients have been in therapy for more than three years and have, for the most part, given up on treatment because they do not feel that it has helped them. I work well with people who feel no one cares about them and want to give up.

I believe our relationships provide the most important, and often the most difficult, ways to learn about ourselves and others. Healing damaged relationships and developing intimacy requires honesty, self-esteem, trust and hard work. As we age, life transitions like career changes, divorce after 50 and planning for retirement bring new opportunities and anxieties. Get the support and encouragement you need to confront the root causes of the behaviors that trigger anxiety, depression, fear and addiction. Together we will develop a plan that is clear, focused and achievable - so that you can become the person you truly want to be.

My passion is treating couples/marital, eating disorders, mood disorders, divorce/parenting/blended family issues, and stress management.
It is my belief that therapy is a collaborative process that requires a relationship of trust and respect between therapist and client. I make this idea the primary focus in developing a therapeutic bond.. I work with adult individuals and couples who are seeking to find resolution to challenges in their life, I strive to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where together with my clients, we work on finding solutions to the issues being confronted. The most rewarding part of being a therapist is to see my clients grow and develop into the person they want to be and to develop the self confidence in themselves

The most important work you will ever do will be within the walls of your home, but that work can be HARD. We love our spouses, children, family members, and friends, but within those relationships can also lie hurt, exhaustion, frustration, and pain. We all need a space where we can not only vent about the hard work we do at home, but also learn skills that can improve our mental health as well as improve the relationships that matter most to us.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
