Life is sometimes a difficult process especially when a partner or child needs, but doesn't want therapy. It can become very painful for yourself or the loved one whose behavior is affecting the whole family. You may even be combing these ads trying to sort out where to start. Sometimes you need someone who knows how to allow a person to open up in their own time. Someone who can work with them through their fears. I have experience in: Child Therapy, Addressing resistance, Mandated clients and LGBTQ concerns. I utilize a variety of techniques toward this aim including EMDR and Play (Sandtray) therapy.

My philosophy of therapy and change is that change comes from within. As a therapist, I ask a great deal in asking an individual to change, as change is an incredibly difficult task for everyone. The journey of change requires both the client and myself to work collaboratively throughout this journey. It is for this reason that the rapport between the client and myself is critical. I aim to provide all my clients with the space to explore their underlying feelings, thoughts, and behaviors so that they can engage in change.

I'm glad you are here. Are you ready to start feeling better? You deserve it. Therapy can be an important step to begin to live the life you have imagined. Often our own negative thinking patterns deeply impact our mood but it can be so hard to just “feel better”. I strive to make counseling a space that is supportive and empathetic to promote personal growth. Life can feel really overwhelming and therapy can be a place that you begin to explore your thoughts, your relationships, and past experiences while beginning to implement daily changes to lead a fulfilling and joyful life.

My job is to collaboratively help you affirm and practice the fact that, though pain can affect how we live internally and externally, there is a path to healing.
“What if this doesn’t work out?” “Why did I say the wrong thing?” “It’s never going to get better.” Whether it’s uneasiness about a new job, a break up, or, say, a global pandemic leading us to spend more alone time than ever before, when an opportunity for anxiety presents itself, our thoughts can run worryingly rampant. While it may seem impossible in the moment, you have the strength to control how these thoughts influence your feelings before they turn into actions. Sometimes all you need is a hand.

Life can be complex. It can feel like its is coming at you from several directions at one time. Work, family, health, loss, even positive changes like marriage and promotion and be stressful adjustments. Sometimes it is not so clear as to where the challenges are stemming from, but they are there. They disrupt our sleep, impact how we interact with peers and our loved ones, create greater impulsivity, and can disrupt our usually effective job performance. Sometimes the choices we make under such duress may feel like they offer some relief in the short term, but ultimately contribute to additional challenges.

Career Counseling Therapists
How do I know if I need career counseling?
Determining whether a career counselor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counseling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counselor.
Who can benefit from career counseling?
Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counseling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counseling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counselor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counseling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.
How long does career counseling typically last?
The length of career counseling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking. Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counseling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counselor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.
How to prepare for career counseling?
Clients can prepare for career counseling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counselor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counselor, particularly if the career counselor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counseling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
