Our brains are incredibly complex: they are always developing and changing as we learn and grow. My philosophy is that all individuals have the ability to overcome challenges and reach their potential. An in-depth understanding of who you are as a person goes a long way in helping you achieve your goals. As a neuropsychologist, I offer comprehensive evaluations that can help clarify how you learn most effectively and describe your unique neurocognitive and emotional profile. I can help you determine why difficulties may be occurring and identify strategies that are most likely to be helpful to you.

I have been providing mental health care since 1989 in both inpatient and outpatient settings, treating individuals, couples and families for a variety of mental health problems. My professional training and background is as a Marriage and Family Therapist, a Certified Addictions Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor. I also have a strong background in Alternative Holistic Healing Therapies from mind/body practices,energy psychology, body-based therapies, holistic health and spiritual practices. As a therapist I use a variety of therapeutic approaches and am able to integrate psychotherapy with alternative healing modalities to support psychological growth in the best way possible for each individual's particular needs (see fuchsmortonholistic.com).

People come to therapy for so many different reasons, and no two journeys are the same. Yet if you have arrived on this page, you are probably at least curious. "What can therapy do for me? Is change even possible?" What if we took that curiosity and kept going with it? What might you find along the way? What strengths were there all along? Therapy doesn't always need to feel like surgery. Often the tools you need are already within reach...they can just be hard to see. Let's turn on a few lights and look at what is there.

You may be experiencing intense pain, numbness, sadness, worry, or confusion. You might feel lost and unsure of what to do next. You might even feel embarrassed for needing support from someone outside of your family or friends. It's important to remember that you’re not alone and struggling ≠ weakness. You’re human and it's okay to seek help.

My ideal clients are those who are experiencing difficulties with blended family issues, adolescent development, trauma, grief and loss, separation and divorce. My role as a therapist is to facilitate a process of healing by partnering with each client. I believe it is essential to listen carefully to an individual, couple or family and develop a partnership that combines my training and experience as a practitioner with each persons unique capacity for healing and growth. Most importantly, the objective of intervention and caring is promoting the family's ability to support the passions and interests that exist in each individual.
