It's your life! With my skills I help you to uncover the themes and focus that will lead you to where you need to be in life.
Are you having trouble releasing yourself from unhealthy habits? Are you frightened because your significant relationship is falling into conflict and pain? Are you plagued with overwhelming negative moods? Are negative thoughts swirling out of control? I find that, most of the time, healthy, change-producing, self-curing experiences are available in our everyday lives. But sometimes people just can't seem to make these things work for them. Their behavior and goals become increasingly out-of-sync, leading to painful "stuckness". That's when therapy is a good choice!

Are you ready to live an open life of freedom, get to the bottom of and move past destructive sexual behaviors? Call, text, or email now to set up a short 15-minute consultation to get started on your journey of healing today.
Are you battling unwanted sexual behavior? Are you tired of carrying around this dark secret? Often we don’t talk about these things or seek help because of the embarrassment or shame that typically surrounds them. We think things like, “if they knew this, they would leave me” or “Keeping this secret keeps the peace,” but you just don’t know how long you can keep up the lie. The truth is that trying to get passed something like a porn addiction on your own doesn’t work and hasn’t worked.

Every now and then life has a way of hitting us hard. I believe that when individuals enter counseling they are feeling gridlocked in their current situation and need assistance navigating their way out of the storms. I see counseling as a process by which I guide my client in exploration and identification of their needs. Through cognitive and somatic techniques I help raise clients' awareness of ineffective behaviors, toxic cycles, and distorted thinking patterns that may be standing in the way of the changes they desire in life. I believe that transformation begins when we slow down, tune into our bodies, and honor what comes up.

I have experience working with the veteran community in support of local non-profits. I have seen the difference that therapy makes in a person’s life.

Waitlist for new clients
The process of learning and accepting who we truly are and then living an authentic life as ourselves can be surprisingly challenging, requiring tenacity and resilience.
My work with clients has included addressing depression, anxiety, self-esteem and identity concerns as well as the social/emotional challenges that accompany ADHD, Autism and other disabilities. As a self avowed ‘nerd therapist’ with ADHD myself, I am passionate about working with fellow nerds, outcasts, artists or creatives who may feel out of sync with a mainstream approach. I am particularly adept at assisting clients in identifying their strengths and talents and applying them toward career, educational and other life goals. I am sex positive and endeavor to be an ally to LGBTQ+, poly and kink communities.

We are here and now; but is your past a healthy part of it? The past can be a time of learning and moving forward, or it can be a red light in our lives and freeze us in that moment of time. It can paralyze us. Or, it can have us living in a world of caution lights where we fearfully drift through them, unaware of the present or future, or vigilantly white knuckling our way, just existing and just “getting through” each day. How we come to terms with the past, forgiving our mistakes and others’ faults can catapult us into a more peaceful and fulfilling life.

“roots” Mental Health Services specializes in “getting to the ‘root’ cause of trauma, depression, anxiety, relational impairment, life transitions, substance use and abuse, etc.
Therapy is not MAGIC. It is a complicated process that requires commitment and active participation to be effective. Therapy can be uncomfortable and “emotionally draining” when HARD discussions provoke painful memories. However, when an individual does “the work” of therapy by identifying and disrupting destructive thinking patterns, which leads to changes in behavior, real MAGIC happens. This power to become a better version of oneself is the “magic” possessed by us all; the therapist is simply one who assists in “tapping” into that power.

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
