Children often struggle with emotions; identifying, expressing and processing their feelings can be very difficult. Anger can rear its ugly head when underneath it may really be a whole bunch of other emotions going on. Some children need to express themselves other than verbally. Play and art therapy techniques, sand tray, and therapeutic games can be used as ways for kids to process emotions without talking or feeling pressured. Children often just need to be heard, given skills, and provided with opportunity for little successes that can increase their self-esteem. Parents are invited to learn valuable tools as well.

Currently taking new clients. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, ptsd, and other challenges. My focus has been on ensuring that effective therapy is available for individuals, families, and adolescents from all walks of life. As a white-passing, enrolled member of the Ponca tribe who has spent 8 years in the US Army and identifies as part of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand some of the lived experiences that often leave people feeling misunderstood and disconnected from the people around them, and I understand how to guide you through many ways we can move you toward a healthier, more satisfying life.

I believe that life is not so much about the good or bad breaks we get compared to others, but rather our responses to the challenges that virtually everyone faces. These responses add up to the story of our lives. My approach is to help individuals, couples and families to respond to life's challenges in ways that promote health and provide for one's story to move forward in a hopeful and productive way. Depression, anxiety, relational problems and/or trauma are as common as breathing and the good news is that there is hope for everyone.

At one time or another most people feel stuck in unproductive or even damaging ways of thinking, feeling, perceiving and acting/ interacting. Sometimes the causes of the difficulty are hard to see or define. Other times we may understand why we struggle but lack the skills or support needed to make and sustain change.

We have all been through so much these last several years, how can we possibly be expected to navigate all of this on our own? I have first-hand experience in the various ways that life can present challenges. And I also know you are doing so many things right. You are here looking for support. This an act of courage and defiance. I feel you refusing to feel this way, refusing to sacrifice yourself and come up empty handed. You are saying "No more". You are leaning toward your own worth willing to commit to yourself. And I want you to know that you don't have to heal alone.

I specialize in supporting creative neurodivergent individuals. Trauma, shame, anxiety, depression, and other challenges can make it really hard to find direction for ourselves, and can impact our relationships. Your hobbies and interests are great resources for healing and understanding yourself, and I truly enjoy working together to explore these while we process whatever has been blocking you.
