Are you ready to live, laugh, and love again? (Did I really just open my Psychology Today profile by ripping off everyone’s favorite/least favorite home décor slogan?) Seriously, though, life is too short to be miserable. It’s my hope that our time together will empower you to live with more purpose. I approach therapy in an informal way, because counseling doesn’t have to be so uptight. It’s OK to laugh! I spent 23 years as a newspaper feature writer before changing careers, writing thousands of stories. I now want my clients to look at the narrative of their lives and choose, for themselves, the direction their own story takes.

Sometimes it is hard to navigate life's challenges. These challenges are often related to the connections we have with ourselves, others, and how we make sense of life events. As a therapist/counselor, my goal is to develop a safe environment where we partner to improve those connections and create healing. I believe in using warmth, honesty, humor, and current research-based methods to achieve this goal.

I have experience with individual and family therapy, and offer both in person and telehealth options.
Right now, there are a lot of stressors that seem to be piling up for, well, everyone, and that can take it's toll on your mental health. Sometimes this means needing a little help sorting through the day-to-day stressors, and sometimes this might mean building coping strategies, exploring the "why" behind why you are feeling depressed, anxious, or otherwise just not yourself. Or maybe it isn't just you-maybe you're looking for help with family therapy or help for a child. No matter the case, if you are ready to start mental health services, I can help.

Searching for help is a courageous first step to change. You may be feeling anxious or depressed. Are you looking for support in changing addictive behaviors from a non-judgmental approach? Perhaps you have experienced traumatic events that have left you feeling "stuck." Or maybe you have relationship issues and aren't sure where to go from here. Whatever your needs, there IS hope.

It's an honor and privilege to work with clients during, what might be, some of their most difficult moments in life. I find it rewarding to hear each client's story, help clients embrace their strengths, recognize personal resiliency factors, and feel more empowered. My approach is collaborative and integrative. I strive to create an affirming environment and atmosphere of safety, trust, and acceptance. Also, it's essential for me to understand client's worldview and cultural identities. I believe that a safe, supportive, and caring therapeutic relationship is an integral part of the change process.

Your emotions are on a constant rollercoaster. Just when it seems like the ride is ending the rollercoaster starts to gain speed again. You’re quick to react to anything that bothers you. You find myself arguing and explosive to the people you care about most. Your marriage is on the verge of divorce and are constantly arguing with your children. Friendships are nonexistent. It’s hard to stay focused at work, you are being passed up for promotions, and find you’re in conflict with co-workers a lot. You’re always stressed out and feel like you are on the verge of a mental breakdown.” Sound familiar?

What do you want? Transformation of course! We go to therapy to ease the pain, stop the suffering, end the struggle. We want to arrive to a destination in our mind of wholeness, excitement and happiness. But, it won’t be you skipping and laughing down the hallway to get there. Therapy can be emotionally and physically exhausting. Accessing and processing DEEP stuff requires effort and lots of deep breaths. BUT, the emotional release, the sense of feeling lighter, seen and less alone is a life worth living for, no, fighting for! You deserve rest and relief.
