2020 has been a tough year as we face this challenging time in our history. We’ve had to grapple with the longevity of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the uncertainty it brings. Challenges, which are further confounded by a complicated and divisive political climate make this a time of grief, trauma, loss, and difficult transitions for many. Physical distancing measures, forced adoption of new technology, and disruption of our routines, though necessary to reduce the spread of COVID-19, bring additional struggles with preventing isolation, remaining engaged with social supports, and coping with stress and anxiety. Please talk with a provider if you are finding yourself overwhelmed or if you are experiencing changes in sleeping, eating, or irritability, whether or not your challenges can be explained by current situations We have immediate openings for therapy and medication management appointments.

It's hard to know how to choose a counselor. I'm happy to meet for an hour or two at no charge to help you find someone. I believe that one's thinking and beliefs are important, but certainly there is an emotional component that is key as well. I find that people feel a lot better when they feel their lives are moving forward. I am best at trauma, anxiety, and panic. I enjoy working with couples, singles who are dating, and people struggling with fatigue. I have much experience with fire service personnel, and some experience with military. I am best with traumas that occurred as an adult.

Through my education, research, and training as a therapist, I have learned and experimented with many therapeutic techniques to support my clients. As a result, I have adapted several techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to change unhelpful ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving; dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to support clients with understanding and accepting their emotions, and learning to manage them; and mindfulness to help you increase awareness through meditation and relaxation.

Do you feel stuck? Trapped? Afraid to live your best life? We all feel emotions like grief, hopelessness, anger, anxiety, shame, aimlessness or isolation at some point - that's real life. But if how you deal with your feelings hurts more than it helps, then maybe it’s time to try something new. I work with adults and teens to explore why they’re stuck and what changes to make so they can break free. Therapy can provide new ways of thinking and new strategies to deal with stress. Change can be hard and scary. But if we do it right, you won't just feel better - you'll actually BE better. Imagine that!
