Most therapy issues stem from issues with control (ie. phobias, controlling others, being "a control freak," feeling controlled by others, uncontrolled thinking, uncontrolled behaviors, etc.). Being out-of-control is extremely uncomfortable, unpredictable, and unavoidable. In therapy we discuss different ways to relate to the concept of control by increasing psychological flexibility. Psychological flexibility is the ability to adapt to the inevitable uncertainties of life. With Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), I assist you in identifying your "stuck" points and making the necessary pivots towards living a life you love.

I believe trust and belonging are the basic needs of individuals. How one learns to love and be loved tells a lot about who we are as people and how our relationships develop. I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families, thereby hoping to provide change to the system, and not just the individual.

I believe people have the ability to heal from harmful experiences. I seek to create a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients, building trust through compassion and nonjudgmental understanding. I use an integrative approach which includes evidence based theories and therapies. I implement EMDR, cognitive behavior therapy, person-centered therapy, positive psychology, solution-based therapy, and family systems therapy. I take a holistic therapeutic approach in working with the client’s well-being through addressing mental, physical, and spiritual health. Most importantly, I feel blessed to be part of this profession!

Are you feeling "stuck" or "shut down"? Perhaps you're feeling like you are on a never-ending "hamster wheel" and are having trouble making sense or finding purpose in your life. Maybe anxiety or depression are preventing you from engaging with yourself and the world in the way that you would like - more connected, more open and less "closed off." I can offer a safe space for you to process these and more life issues you are facing, freeing you from the burden of bearing them alone and perhaps learning new strategies to cope with life's stresses. Normally you're pretty good at overcoming obstacles but are finding it challenging.

Accepting New Clients! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have about 8 years of experience with adult individuals, couples, adolescents and families in agency settings and private practice. I like working with adults and mature teens with a variety of mental health and relationship concerns. I have a relaxed, relational approach, and practice from a person-centered basis. I seek to know those that I see at a deep level, and believe that everyone is capable of understanding and changing aspects of themselves given a positive and supportive therapy environment. I strive to instill hope and promote personal growth and healing.

I now offer Psilocybin Experiencing and Micro Dosing. Research has shown and I have seen treatment resistant addiction conditions respond rapidly to psilocybin treatment, often in one session! I also provide assistance in dealing with what triggers your cravings, repair of relationships, and healing of traumas that resulted from using or may have contributed to beginning using in the first place. I also work with complicated grief from the loss of a loved one to overdose, suicide, or other traumatic losses. I have over 50 years of personal recovery.

You care about your growth and healing journey; you’re invested in helping yourself uncover and sort through your "issues." You’ve tried to figure it out, tried to find the right path, yet you continue to feel stuck, frustrated and/or overwhelmed. Perhaps you've even resorted to blaming yourself for your “problems.” The challenges that you experience are not your fault, they never were. They exist from the intricate system of protection that was originally and organically designed to keep you safe against perceived threats, but has reached its limit of effectiveness and is now causing the very issues it is trying to prevent.

My integrative approach is tailored to the specific needs of the client. I specialize in innovative ways to reduce stress and restore healthier functioning. My style of counseling emphasizes the importance of developing relationships based on mutual respect, honesty, and trust. I employ an eclectic approach with an emphasis on cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques. Together we will explore your unique issues.

Taking new patients

Taking charge of your healing journey is a heroic step. Much like training for an athletic challenge, it requires dedication, courage, determination, and self-love - as well as a good coach. We will do incredible work together if you are motivated to commit to your own growth process, are curious and open-minded, and are willing to do the sometimes difficult mental, emotional, and spiritual work to change habits and patterns that no longer serve you or those you care about. I'm especially passionate about working with healers, helpers, teachers, parents, caregivers, and people healing from childhood and intergenerational trauma.
