I feel the most helpful with clients who experience unmanaged symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Addiction, Grief and Trauma. Left unmanaged, these disorders can decrease our sense of self worth. A variety of other issues might develop such as relationship conflicts, loneliness, phobias, panic attacks, and substance abuse. Along with empowering individuals to become mentally strong, I enjoy helping Couples improve their relationship. Whether it's teaching communication skills, conflict resolution skills or endeavoring to heal from specific events and issues, there are gains we can make by working together.

Feeling desperate, confused, lost, frustrated, discontented, worried, sad,? I desire to help everyone overcome their struggles and reach their true potential. It's not always a quick fix, sometimes the answers to these problems are deeper than we know. I strive to help people deal with the deep issues of their life, so that they can push through obstacles and break free from the internal thought patterns that are worsening the pain. I work with people to find a new hope and confidence in themselves and their future. My approach to counseling is one that is person centered, genuine, deep and interactive.

You know your patterns, what triggers you, how you're getting in your own way - but can't seem to translate that insight into a change in how your mind and body respond when you're under stress. You want more confidence and clarity in your life, but self-criticism and anxiety seem to always be below the surface. Maybe you've been in therapy before, but are still struggling to find lasting relief from trauma, anxiety & relationship concerns.

I believe that “trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.” I work with those who have experienced various forms of trauma, including shock, developmental, medical, relational, and religious trauma. I also work with those experiencing forms of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and those experiencing systemic and cultural forms of oppression. I believe that everyone has the right to a nurturing and supportive space, and strive towards the ongoing creation of an inclusive environment for all.

There are times to cope and there are times to heal. I am passionate about helping clients “do the work” of healing past wounds, limiting mindsets, and whatever else keeps them from being as healthy, whole and happy as possible. I believe in being gentle with one’s self especially in the work of healing. My desire is to help clients work WITH their internal system to move toward greater internal harmony which I believe gives them access to more of their personal power, happiness and freedom.

This format allows the many layers of your experience to unfold organically, and creates space for emotions that may arise within session. I enjoy working with clients who are interested in exploring current patterns, processing traumatic experiences, and integrating new ways of being.
