Hi! I am a fully licensed therapist and I enjoy providing therapy for teens and adults. I offer a laid back and casual vibe to therapy, where you can be comfortable. I often see people who are overwhelmed with life stress, have trouble communicating, or are trying to cope with anxiety and depression, school issues, PTSD, relationship problems, family struggles, grief, or parenting problems. As a therapist I help clients change patterns, take ownership of their path to healing, and identify core negative beliefs.

I entered clinical social work later in life and I bring a mature understanding to working through psychological distress with my patients. Issues that may be addressed in treatment include trauma in childhood or as an adult, anxiety, depression, unresolved grief, relationship issues, inadequate self esteem and self harming behaviors. The goal of treatment is greater self awareness allowing emotional responses to be better understood and worked through, leading to a greater ability to meet life's challenges and live life more fully.

Choosing to attend therapy can be a challenging decision. It is my privilege to help you through your struggles and to succeed through life's many challenges. It is my goal to build a therapeutic alliance with you by creating a safe and supportive atmosphere where you can express your feelings. I strive to provide an empathetic, understanding, and nonjudgmental environment.

I have been in practice as a Psychotherapist for over 25 years working with adults, children, and adolescents, as well as families and couples.

My clinical experience includes the treatment of mood disorders, depression/bipolar disorders, anxiety, anger management, family and marital relationship issues, grief and trauma, school difficulties, ADHD, and behavioral problems. I coordinate care with physicians, schools, employers, and the legal system and can administer the MMPI as needed.

Life stress often leaves us feeling anxious with difficulty focusing, racing thoughts, insomnia, and general restlessness. We may feel as if there is a dark cloud over our eyes, a change of appetite, difficulty doing basic tasks. Changes cause stress and uncertainty. College, marriage, the birth of children, new jobs are positive life transitions that can also be unsettling and an adjustment. Moving, kids leaving home, retirement and losses such as divorce, passing of loved ones, caregiving and the aging process can cause a significant amount of stress. The good news is life transitions help us grow.

Do you feel something is missing from your life? Do you feel you have lost your way and are unsure where to go next? Do you find yourself asking: “where did I go wrong” or “what matters to me anymore?” Clients may find their usual coping skills are no longer sufficient, have unintentionally relinquished their autonomy, be stuck due to unaddressed trauma, or have never found the time to look within and get to know themselves. Sessions with me are oriented around thought-provoking questions and free association. The process is highly client-driven as anything on your mind could merit deeper exploration.

You may feel like you've tried everything, but nothing seems to work long term. Maybe you are trying to navigate life's challenges on your own, with no success. The Dwelling Place Counseling focuses on supporting children, teens and women; helping them to lead healthier lives. Challenges will arise, but you don't have to go through them alone. Whether you need someone to talk to, someone to lend advice, or someone to support and encourage you on your journey towards complete restoration, I would be honored to walk alongside you to help you reach your goals.

I help clients work through the challenges that come with anxiety, low mood, anger, lack of focus, feeling 'stuck', harsh repeating thoughts, relationship and career issues, and living without JOY!
