It is written, "Hope is an anchor for the soul, firm and secure." A popular image of an anchor symbolizes safety and stability. Many people - maybe even you - face terrible storms in their lives: addiction, abuse, fear, loss of relationships, joblessness, loneliness and more. In response to life's storms, people turn to compulsive sexual behavior, anger, substance abuse and food to soothe themselves. These "medications" not only do not work, but create chaos in our lives. Other ways of dealing with turmoil include lying, isolation and feelings of shame, guilt and worthlessness. I offer a refuge to chart a new course.

You can learn to raise yourself...to enhance the positive aspects of life and build resilience in the face of adversity. The therapeutic relationship is tool to gain self knowledge, acceptance and access to your own wisdom. Therapy does not take difficulties in life away. Instead, you change your relationship to them. You learn the difference between the kind of suffering that is natural and unavoidable from the kind of suffering that is self inflicted. With this growing awareness inner strength and respect for yourself grows. Little by little you uproot destructive patterns and come back to life.

As a therapist, my primary goal is to help my clients have more choice and spontaneity in their lives, as well as greater satisfaction. I want to help alleviate suffering, whether generated from past traumatizing experiences or from current experiences. I believe that we all have many answers and great potential inside us but are often blocked from accessing our own wisdom, meaning we only function on a modest amount of this potential. It gives me great joy to help my clients find their answers and discover problem-solving abilities through the therapeutic process.

Not accepting new clients
I am currently only accepting inquires for LLPC supervision, please send me an email to discuss how I may be able to assist you in meeting licensure requirements and your career goals. Some people will never understand what it is like to be raised by parents who don’t see you. The pain you feel when they put everything and everyone before you. How small and invisible it made you feel when they ignore the love you have for them and choose “it” instead. The “it” could have been drugs, partners, friends, siblings, work, etc…no matter what you did they never seemed to choose you.

My favorite clients are the ones who are ready to take control of their own lives and they are ready to take their power back. They want to be happy and experience freedom in all areas of their lives and are done making excuses. My clients strive to become better people and live happy and fulfilling lives after breaking the barriers of old belief systems and barriers that were holding them back. By working together, it's possible to reclaim lost fragments of yourself and transform back into wholeness. My clients (individuals and couples) report finding freedom to be who they are, love for themselves, and alignment in purpose.
