You blew up at your partner again last night! You promised yourself you wouldn't let your anger take over AGAIN, it did. Feelings of guilt and shame fill your body as you see your partner turn away from you. After countless conversations with them you set intentions to make yourself STOP Yesterday, you felt the tension and anger rising; you even thought "push it down". The extra puff and drink after work, the remedy to ease it away, didn't work. This pattern is disturbing, but not as disturbing as the anxiety and depression you try to keep at bay. You know life would be better if you haven't found a way to do that.

I work especially well with someone who is wanting to improve their quality of well-being for themselves and their relationships. I've worked often with people who are in a life change and want to move forward in ways that are most meaningful to them.

My approach to therapy is driven by empathy, trust, connection and compassion. Though there are multiple clinical orientations at my disposal, I believe the primary means of change lies in developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and carefully listening to your story. My background in family systems theory enables me to work with you in considering how multiple factors including your relationships, health, and spirituality are impacting your daily life.

When alcohol or other drug use becomes problematic, the mind, body, and spirit are negatively impacted. Behavioral choices, when under the influence, tend to multiply life problems. This sometimes leads to feelings of hopelessness, a sense of being on a merry-go-round that never stops. Often there are feelings of guilt and shame because much of society still judges alcohol/drug misuse, believing it to be the result of a weak will or flawed moral values.

Life is full of changes, some good, some difficult. Managing these changes sometimes overwhelms the individual to the point of needing help. All of us, at some point, would benefit from someone to come along side of us to help us learn to accept, adjust, move in a different direction, or just talk about it. Are you that someone, struggling in some area of your life, and wishing there was some way to figure out why this is happening, or what to do next? Do you have an existing mental health disorder that you are now struggling with? If so, please seek some assistance in order for you to learn to cope with your challenges.

I'm Jarae, and my gift is helping women heal their relationship with food and their body.
Are you a woman struggling with emotional eating and negative body image? Do you constantly obsess about food and your body and never feel good enough? Do you experience shame or guilt over your eating habits and the way you look? Are you fixated on calories or turning to food when stressed and overwhelmed? I understand the challenges women face in today’s society, where we are pressured to look a certain way to find happiness and self-love. This is not your fault. This is the result of unhealed trauma and living in a culture that teaches women our self-worth is determined by our shape and how ‘good’ we can be with food.

I work with women who carry the weight of their negative childhood experiences into their adult lives. These experiences may have manifested into anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or a general sense of being stuck or frozen. When ignored or not dealt with, these deep impactful experiences from childhood eat away at us, despite "knowing better" as adults on how to deal our symptoms. The women I work with are looking to find healing from their pasts, to find their voice, and re-discover who they are and where they want to go in life. I hope to support you in this, too.

The client is the authority about his/her needs and hopes. If we work together I believe we can achieve the goals we agree upon as we come to know each other. I've worked with couples, families, organizations, and friends in resolving relationship issues for 20 years. I believe attachment issues, trauma and disturbing memories influence our sense of self and can effect how we interact and respond or react in all our relationships. Trauma is personal, some examples are the death of a pet, infidelity, death, war, natural disasters, sexual trauma, growing up in a unstable environment.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
