Mindful, gentle, supportive, intuitive. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, and frustration or find yourself turning to unhealthy behaviors for relief and escape from uncomfortable feelings. You may also be struggling to be free of the devestating effects of past trauma. Or you may have a knowing that there is a freer, stronger, and more joyful you that has just seemed to remain out of reach, despite your good efforts. Through mindfulness attention and somaticwareness, that which was previously "in the way" becomes our doorway to healing, clarity, peace, joy, and the ability to realize our personal and life goals.

I believe that everyone can reach an optimum state of health. How one gets there depends on the individual and how I can best meet them where they are at. The process of self-growth and sense of contentment is a journey I believe is strengthened when the individual seeking support feels seen and heard. My goal is to establish a safe space for my clients to express and explore what they need to grow into the best version of themselves.

Each client comes with unique struggles and with unique hopes and longings in the search for meaning, relatedness, healing, creativity, and growth. We all have a life to live. When that life is stymied - by inside forces or outside events - you might feel stuck or lonely, experience anxiety, depression, anger, grief, chronic pain, or restlessness. You might also struggle with life changes, illness, stale relationship patterns, addictions or spiritual issues. My aim is to get to know you well and help you develop a conscious, vital relationship with the powerful forces that seek life and growth and with those that get in your way.

My style is primarily about building a trusting relationship with one another which will over time extend into you trusting yourself more, having more zest for life, and fostering stronger, healthier relationships.

Whatever issues or concerns bring you to counseling, I appreciate and respect that you are the EXPERT on your life. Your feelings are valid. Together we will figure out what counseling style is most comfortable for you (e.g., psychodynamic, art therapeutic) and work from that perspective. Whatever your goal (e.g., finding calm in the storm, mindfully retracing life's twists and turns, rejoining life), you don't have to be alone in your journey. I enjoy supporting individuals traveling the path of self-discovery. I know that opening up can be scary. Seeing and hearing your truth can also be life affirming, lifesaving. Do the work.

I genuinely believe freedom, health, wholeness, and hope are God-given possibilities for everyone. Unfortunately, these freedoms have been lost due to traumas, life patterns, and circumstances, and the human heart desperately seeks to regain them. With the right support, clients can pull on their resilient strengths to make responsible choices to function in a healthier life-sustaining way. Counseling and psychotherapy can assist in the understanding and healing process. It is a privilege to help restore to the individual what life events, relationships, or our own choices have stolen from us.

Therapy can be a rich, meaningful and life-changing journey. It is a process of acknowledging and exploring where you are, where you've been, and where you want to go.

As your therapist, I am committed to working alongside you as you make these changes, cheering you along the way, as you cultivate the life you want to live, choice by choice and step by step.

Accepting new clients October 2024:) Feeling stuck? Burned out or always overwhelmed? Not enjoying life the way everyone else seems to? Perhaps the coping strategies and/or relationships you've turned to for support in the past are no longer accessible or just not enough on their own. Most people starting or restarting therapy are looking for a change in some way. I believe that therapy is a place for reconnection, supportive challenge; a place to show up as your full self. We may be a good fit if you are looking for support with depression, trauma/PTSD, anxiety, toxic relationships, and/or LGBTQ2+ identity/gender affirmation.

“Should I Stay or Should I Go?” A great song and also a poignant question that creeps into the psyche of many couples at one point or another. You might feel lost, empty, and overwhelmed as you reflect on your relationship, questioning where things went off course. One moment, you’re filled with frustration, and the next, a wave of admiration hits—only to be followed by a sense of complete disconnect. These shifting emotions are exhausting, leaving you unsure of what you truly want or need. You’re not alone in this confusion, and it’s okay to seek clarity in a time when nothing feels certain.

The impact of painful past experiences, relationship problems, and never feeling "good enough" are interfering with your life. You feel broken and like you have to constantly wear a mask so others don’t see you’re struggling. Disconnection and hurt are your norm in many of your relationships. You’ve read self-help books and been to therapy before, but nothing has actually led to the growth and change you’re looking for in your life and relationships. You have a sense that you can have a life with more confidence, stability, and fulfilling relationships, and are thinking it’s time you get some support.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
