::: ::: Our stories are written by the things we experience: our past, our present, and what we hope will be our future. At times we come to a point when the storyline has not turned out like we expected. This may be the catalyst to begin a search to find insight and meaning for the past, hope for change in the present, and movement toward what lies ahead.

My hope for therapy, and our time together, is that you can start to become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, behaviors and beliefs. By doing this you will start the process of empowering yourself towards a whole healthy person. We will spend time together examining each of these categories in a way that will give you a new outlook on life. I also believe balance in life is needed, and often times we lose this balance. Together we can explore ways to regain sense of self and establish balance.

Understanding your own journey is one of the bravest things you will ever do for yourself. Sometimes our story doesn’t follow the plan we had dreamed of, or it takes some turns for the worst, leaving us feeling lost, hopeless, and/or lonely. When difficult transitions occur, it makes understanding our story even more difficult. When you enter this season of trying to make sense of the twists and turns, having a skilled companion by your side to listen, see you, affirm you, and explore difficult parts of your story can be healing. I am here to help you discover that inner strength, and provide clarity, and support.

What I believe.. I believe that every human has a right to make their own choices, and those choices reflect the life they are currently living. Counseling is the pit stop where a person has an opportunity to look at the life they are living through another perspective. Often, we cannot see the blind spots that keep us from living our best life or because of the past trauma we lived through, we cannot see the wonderful parts of ourselves that everyone else can see. My role as your counselor is to be a mirror for you to see clearly what you bring to the world and what may hinder you from bringing the best parts of yourself forward.

Excited. Persistent. Results oriented and good sense of humor. That's me! You’re not alone when you say, “I really don’t want to get out of bed today, just a little while longer,” as you pull the covers over your head. Today feels gray, you feel overwhelmed, even numb and the nagging “duties” of the day pull at your attention, one after another. You want to scream and hide under a rock to make it all go away for a minute, but you open your eyes to see the list of “should’s” just get longer. And worse yet, you feel alone in all of it.

It happened again, last night. You and your partner got into a big fight over something so small, you can’t even remember how it started. How did it get so big, so fast? You don’t know how to make it clear that you’re listening, you get it. You know you sound harsh, and that you’re defensive. But what else can you do? The past comes up, your character goes on trial, and whatever you say just makes things worse. And saying nothing feels like taking all the blame. You can’t let things go because you’ve done so much of that already. You’re in such a sensitive place that you’re losing hope, and that’s the scariest part.

Life tends to hand us some unexpected challenges that can catch us off guard, or even knock us off our feet. Grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions and relational hurts rob us of our peace, leave us feeling anxious, unable to make progress, and can challenge our core identity. I have extensive experience helping people through a wide range of challenges and struggles throughout my twenty years in pastoral care ministries. Processing the journey in a safe, supportive, trauma informed, environment sets the foundation for those experiences to make you stronger instead of chipping away at your heart.

Summer is over. Life is full of transitions and can tug at our strings in search for identity and times of uncertainty that can increase anxiety, depression, and trigger previous trauma. Children can feel changes and try to adapt without the words to express how they feel that can create additional tension. Put this together, it can become a cesspool of emotions for both the parent(s) and child. My personal experience of living abroad for 20 years and raising 5 children, helped me to understand transitions and their complexities.I work with both children and adults, parenting for relief.
