Currently accepting new clients. A full life includes the full range of human emotions. However, it is time to reach out for help when you feel stuck, drained, hopeless, trapped, or overwhelmed. I am so glad you are here, reaching out. I believe that the role of the therapist is to be a trustworthy, empathetic, and non-judgmental listener, as well as a professional who is trained in evidence-based therapeutic modalities that gently challenge their clients to move in a positive direction. I am so often inspired by my clients who are willing to be real and challenge themselves to heal and grow.

Life can present us with many unwanted and unexpected situations. Sometimes, it can be a traumatic situation, or maybe you are dealing with a child who has become withdrawn, not speaking, and is not socializing with the family. Perhaps you have some past trauma that has not been fully explored or resolved, or anxiety about the future. Whatever the circumstances, counseling may be able to help. I have worked with clients of all ages and with many different issues, including anxiety, depression, and ADHD as well as with patients experiencing past and current trauma.

Healthy sexuality is achievable. Sex is an integral and balanced part of life experience. Sexual behaviors become problematic when they violate vows and values, are dishonest, harmful to others, put you at risk, diminish your joy in life, act as a barrier filled with shame, self-contempt, and isolation. Sexual health creates intimacy and closeness, characterized by trust, respect, joy and safety. Sexual health can be achieved by sex addicts in recovery. The trauma and addiction model identifies the abuse, trauma and internal system that underwrites addiction and does not view problematic behavior as personal or moral failure.

What is self actualization? Maslow would say it is the process of becoming “everything you are capable of becoming.” One of the most exciting and painful journeys we face is truly understanding who we are and who we can become. One of my biggest passions in practice is empowering people as they take this journey. With neurodiversity, many people have found this process stressful and even traumatic. In reality, what they are capable of is often truly remarkable when they learn to embrace it. I have found so much joy in watching clients find relief, empathy for themselves, and excitement when they learn to understand themselves.

Are you exhausted from a toxic or narcissistic relationship? Sometimes the relationship is good, but often it’s really bad. You’re walking on eggshells, trying to anticipate their mood, fearful of setting them off. You’re confused because at one point they were so kind and loving. They’ve betrayed you and now it's hard to trust yourself & you feel a deep sense of shame.

I work with adults and adolescents in both individual and family counseling. My approach is eclectic and holistic. I believe the most effective change occurs when a person is balanced in the physical, mental, relational, emotional, and spiritual areas of life, therefore I assist clients in evaluating their life to see where there may be imbalance. Therapy and recommendations are focused on areas of imbalance.

In our journey through life, we often encounter past experiences that profoundly influence our current perceptions of ourselves. While life involves moments of suffering, I believe that finding support during these times can empower us on our path to healing. I strongly believe in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship, as this connection can reveal to us the truth of our innate worth and wholeness.
