During our most challenging seasons we can feel overwhelmed, stuck, and alone. Navigating these challenging seasons can be painful, as we often fail to manage the intensity of the thoughts and emotions experienced. Healthy choices that can be made, do not seem so clear. But, what if the difficult season is here to help us to discover something essential about ourselves or others? Once acknowledged as such, the process can begin of healing, living, and thriving as a new awareness is recognized, a need addressed, an opportunity seen, strengths developed; all leading to growth, deeper connection, and a greater sense of well-being.

The cornerstone of my practice is a simple but incredibly vital one: providing empathy. I will listen to you and work to truly see and hear you. We all have different, unique stories and it’s so important to honor those in our therapeutic work together. By better understanding your story, I can then assist you in breaking down the challenges you’re facing into more manageable pieces so you don’t have to feel defined or limited by them. I will also guide you in recognizing your own strengths and work actively with you to develop healthy coping strategies to better manage your anxiety, depression, everyday stress or life transitions.

Participating in sports is a fulfilling privilege that offers personal growth, opportunities, and exclusive experiences. However, it also comes with its own set of challenges, such as injury, sacrifice, and stress. As an athlete, you face a range of unique experiences and obstacles that require empathy and support from someone who truly understands.

It takes strength and courage to seek help. I applaud you for making it this far. I am a lifespan LPC and expressive arts therapist. My work is primarily with children (and families), adolescents and young adults, though I do additionally see adults individually as well as couples. Parents and individual clients alike often come to me with concerns of anxiety, depression, self-regulation, behavioral issues, performance challenges (school, sports, work, etc.), and life transitions, just to name a few. I largely utilize mindfulness-based techniques as it is only with present awareness that we can change our lived experiences.

My 25 years of clinical experience have convinced me of the importance of feeling comfortable with your therapist and hopeful about therapy. If you are feeling anxious, depressed, or troubled by relationship or work issues, I can help you clarify your concerns, identify goals, and work toward both symptom relief and improved skills to deal with both current and future problems. In addition to individual psychotherapy with adults, I also enjoy helping adults with parenting skills, navigating normal life transitions and the challenges of change at all stages of life.

I have a particular interest in helping people with personality and relationship problems. In therapy I try to create an environment where patients will feel safe sharing and exploring all their thoughts and feelings about themselves, so that we can trace how these affect their daily experiences. To do this we may also examine the person's moment to moment experience in therapy. Understanding the interactions between internal assumptions on the one hand, and feelings and behavior, on the other,leads to a more stable sense of self and the possibility of different choices.

The relationship between a client and therapist is a partnership, with every person having unique needs. I understand that therapy is not a one-size fits all process and that's why I utilize a client-centered approach. Working together as partners, we can find the most effective approach that will help you reach your treatment goals. It is often negative thinking patterns that get in the way of creating meaningful and lasting change. I will help you create the life you want by letting go of unhelpful beliefs and feel empowered in making life choices.

Can’t seem to turn your brain off and stop worrying? Are you constantly overthinking? Are you playing the same events over and over in your mind? Always concerned about saying or doing the right thing? Inside you may be feeling on-edge and nervous, and struggling with doubts and fears can be so tiring, which makes it harder to cope. It can seem like a never-ending cycle where trying to control everything just makes you feel more restless and out of control.
