When we are involved in hardship, loss or trauma it is common to experience struggle and to feel imbalanced by it. I feel passionate to help people recover from these life stressors and then support them in reaching their goals. I work with my clients to help them overcome and cope with their challenges, find value in themselves, discover purpose in their lives and support them in forming healthy relationships. My goal is to work together with each person to help them feel secure, safe, and supported within their lives.

Finding the right fit in a therapist is vital for success in therapy. I've been successful working with motivated individuals, couples and families who want to identify and work to resolve specific issues. I've helped couples reconnect with one another. I've helped individuals reduce their symptoms of anxiety, depression or addictive behaviors. I have experience helping to resolve trauma of various types. Transitions in life can be difficult and I am able to help with different stages in life like leaving home for the first time, empty nest, divorce, death of a spouse, changing jobs, retirement.

The treatments I use help people to identify goals closest to their own values. Goals are then easier to achieve because they are already close to who you are and what you hold to be important. I can assist with reshaping challenging thoughts into productive actions and more positive behaviors. I work in a group practice in Lewiston founded as a diverse holistic group that with the pandemic has evolved into a practice of experienced mental health practictioners.

I have worked with clients experiencing co-occurring disorders, anxiety, grief and loss, self-esteem issues, depression, adult life transitions, substance abuse, spirituality issues, relationship difficulties, and those who are alone without family support. Other clients I have worked with include students, adult children caring for parents, LGBTQs and refugees as they adjust to life in the U.S.

After 20 years as a counselor, I appreciate how important it is for all of us to sometimes find a safe place to talk through difficult emotions and experiences, feel more understood, and regain the hope and confidence necessary to enact meaningful life changes.

I invite my clients to help me understand what is most important to them, allow themselves the opportunity to explore both the fears and strengths at play in their lives, and embrace new ways of caring for themselves which fit with their preferences and values.

I am full at this time. I have a wide range of experience, and am fascinated by the way the mind works. Therapy looks different for each person, and I try to create a place of healing. I love doing spiritual work with clients who lean in that direction. I do EMDR to heal trauma and negative beliefs that keep you stuck. I love working with clients with bipolar disorder. I love working with clients from other countries and cultures. I try to always give you a “take home” idea or exercise when you walk out the door. Therapy for me is a graceful and creative healing process, and I am mystified to watch people change before my eyes.

Many of us are working through challenging phases in our lives. Challenges such as past trauma, relationship issues, or having unhealthy ways to cope that can lead to unwelcoming thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Reaching out for help is the first step in the process of healing, letting go and learning how to find our own personal strength to move forward. My role as your therapist will be to help you identify goals that will support you in achieving success in whatever areas of life you are struggling with. I will guide you in your own unique process of understanding where you are and where you would like to be.
