I use a client-centered, systemic, and collaborative approach, of Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and the Bowen Intergenerational model to achieve client goals.
I am a mental health therapist and relationship specialist with over twenty years of experience in counseling, mentoring, and Christian counseling. As a therapist, I believe in living life purposefully but also understand that mental and emotional distress can be a barrier to healthy living. I work with individuals, couples, and families who need emotional support and practical tools to navigate challenges that create emotional distress and dysfunction in their personal, relational, and professional relationships.

Accepting new clients. In person and telehealth sessions available! Are you STUCK in unhealthy relationships with yourself, your family, and maybe even your friends? Have you ever said to yourself “How did I get here again?” Do you have difficulty saying “no?” Unhealthy relationships can leave us heartbroken and unfulfilled. We spend countless amounts of energy trying to figure out where we went wrong all to no avail. We become sad, angry, jaded and defeated. Sometimes we give up on relationships all together. It hurts to much to stay and we are too afraid to change. We get STUCK between a rock and a hard place.

Choosing the path towards better health is a big deal, and you should feel proud of yourself for taking the first step. The path that makes the difference may not always be clear, but I'd like the opportunity to help be your guide. Some may you must be ready for therapy and to open up. I believe that readiness is along a continuum of what you'll need along this path. You'll need willingness, commitment, and some trust among other things. This process is not linear, there will be bumps in the road, their will be bright spots too-and at Two Roads you can participate in choosing the path that's healthiest for your family and for you!

Are you experiencing depression/anxiety symptoms? Experiencing difficulties with healthy communication in your relationships? Gender dysphoria or learning to accept a new identity? Desiring to progress but feeling stagnant in several areas in your life? Therapy is a relationship, and it is important to me that you feel seen, heard, and understood. I am empathetically direct, and I encourage my clients to express themselves in a way that feels authentic to them. We can create goals and explore past childhood trauma or issues that may impact who you are today. Therapy works best when we work together.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
