I am trained in the following: "CBT" (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) - helps you to understand how your thoughts and feelings drive your behaviors; "TFCBT" (Trauma-Focused CBT) - focuses on how the trauma in your life has affected your present life experience; and "Hakomi Therapy"- a somatic psychotherapy designed as a self-discovery tool done in mindfulness.
Often times we find ourselves going through the motions in life and not feeling "alive". We can't seem to pinpoint what it is that’s creating that disconnect, but we know we want to feel better. I'd love to help you with a guided self-discovery, an understanding of exactly what those obstacles are, and how to move past them to help you live the life you've imagined!

Utilizing a mixture of strength based, client centered, mindfulness, narrative approach we can turn those trials into triumphs.
Everyone goes through trying times at some point in life. There is no single person in life that has never experienced obstacles, trials, and difficulties in their life journey. Some are small and some are big. During these experiences we often feel hopeless, lost, scared, frustrated or worried. You may even feel alone and believe there is no one who understands.

For many of us, working on emotional and relational issues is something we tend to put off until life gets too painful to manage on our own. We struggle to get back to what life used to be, but we cannot seem to find our way. Marriages dissolve, relationships crumble, routine tasks seem overwhelming, and the life for which God made us appears to be permanently out of reach. Perhaps you are reading this now because you are looking for a change. Your new beginning is one step away, and I would be honored to take that journey with you.

Today our complicated and fast-paced lives are full of pressures that challenge us in countless ways. "How can I find happiness in my marriage?", "How do I cope with...?", and "Why do I feel so out of control?" are some of the questions I hear from clients seeking to understand their life journey and questioning what they can do to reach their true potential - individually, as a couple, or as a family. Soul searching is rarely an easy path to take, yet wanting to achieve an emotionally healthy life is usually the motivator which begins the process.

We have interactions with others, and with ourselves (internally) everyday. When there is a lack of connection on any level we can become distressed or any number of things. From discouraged to depressed or anxious or just withdrawn. I love working with clients who are seeking to find a balanced and healthy daily interaction within themselves and hopefully with others. It is my heartfelt belief that we are all unique and created to connect with those around us on a level that both brings peace for ourselves and gives back to others in our relationships.

How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
