​I have been working in recovery for seven years and have seen a wide range of issues related to addiction. Addiction in itself can be a traumatic event as it causes us to go against our morals. Addiction often contributes to shame and can produce anger, anxiety, depression and other struggles. I have created individualized treatment plans for every issue my clients have presented with as related to addiction.Each client has a different set of issues,needs and goals so I take a person-centered approach to best meet those needs. It's important to identify our strengths and capitalize on these rather than only focusing on the problem.

Has talk therapy not quite stimulated the change you are hoping for? Are you feeling lost, lacking purpose or satisfaction in life? My visually expressive & meditative approach is an exploration of personality, habits, patterns, connections and the ego that have structured your life but may be disrupting your feeling of joy or sense of fulfillment & instigating stress. When in a place of fear, anxiety, desire, shame, perfection or an egotistical sense of value, we defer to what we know, judgement, impulsivity, sarcasm, disconnection or revenge. These are defenses resisting true self-awareness, compassion and connection.

Have issues at home or school left your child depressed, angry or withdrawn? Many times, behavior and mood changes may be your child’s way of communicating that they need help processing the things going on in their lives. When adults are stressed and overwhelmed, other aspects of our lives suffer (e.g. job performance, relationship, etc). Children & teens experience emotional stress in similar ways. Failing grades, self-harm or behavioral issues at home and school are signs that something deeper may be happening. As a parent you may feel helpless. You've tried all you know but nothing works. You just want it to get better!

Thank you for taking a moment to visit my website. I am passionate about supporting my clients on their journey toward personal and professional growth. My primary objective as a clinician is to help them raise their awareness regarding thoughts and behaviors that impede their growth and then to join with them in creating clear pathways toward change. While nothing is more important to me than establishing a warm relationship within a nurturing environment where clients feel comfortable telling the truth and taking risks, I place equal importance on compassionately challenging them to take as much ownership as possible for the difficulties confronting them.

Why therapy? There are many answers to this question. It's a question I will ask when we first begin and you may or may not fully know the answer. If you are unsure at first, that’s okay. I promise we will figure it out together and by the end of our work you will have discovered why therapy was exactly what you needed in this moment of your life. And if you come to me knowing exactly what you need and why therapy is the way forward, I promise we will work very hard together so that you achieve what you desire.

Many individuals find themselves struggling with how to get through difficult life events. Maybe you find yourself turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms through the use of drugs, alcohol, or relationships. These events may make it difficult to do even the smallest of tasks, like getting out of bed in the morning or eating. Sometimes it may manifest into not wanting to leave the house, and being fearful of social situations. Taking the first step towards therapy is taking the first step towards bettering yourself and the quality of your life.

I enjoy working with families and individual adults dealing with conflict, codependency, depression, anxiety, some trauma, and life transitions. Each of us is faced with unique challenges, but I believe each family and individual, no matter how broken, also embodies the unique strengths that can be used to overcome these challenges. My role is to walk alongside those I work with to help identify these strengths and restore relationships that will help create lasting change.

Making the decision to reach out for counseling can be a scary step to take, but it is often times the first step towards a healthy and happy life. You could be struggeling with a broken relationship, life stressors, loss/grief, depression, anxiety, or perhaps you can't describe how you feel, but you know it's just not "right". As a counselor, my goal is to provide a safe and warm environment for you to share your story with me, to work together to set goals, and to set off on a path towards healing and wholeness.

All of us, with complicated and stressful lives can have struggles. Therapy can help you learn the skills you have not had a chance to develop. Psychotherapy can help when sadness or anxiey is interfering with your happiness and can help identify the obstacles that interfere with you reaching your goals. Additionally, your marriage and family relationships can improve greatly with therapy by helping you develop better communication skills and understand the underlying issues.
