Feeling stuck in an endless cycle of waking up with that pit in your stomach, feeling drained, overwhelmed and not knowing which way to turn? These are often the times we need help the most, yet struggle to reach out.

I help clients to reduce anxiety and depression and other mental health symptoms, and to recognize their responsibility and creative power in the systems/groups they participate in: family of origin, friend group, couple, chosen family, work, religious, and societal. Counseling sessions are a journey into the present moment, with time and opportunity to sense, feel, notice thoughts, and recognize patterns. Clients and couples make confident and clear-minded choices going forward, respecting both pain/isolation and potential. The outcome is purposeful, ethical living, and the realization of their wise and compassionate nature.

"We should not have to wait until we are sick to be well." ~ Diane McLaren The connection between a healthy mind and body can not be disputed. Too much mental anguish, depression, anxiety, stress, relationship conflict, and anger will impact on an individuals' mental and physical well being, and will carry over into all areas of one's life. It is never too late to make the necessary changes and adjustments that will ensure a healthier and happier life style. If you are experiencing any of these problems, I know that I can assist you in resolving these issues.
