“Peaceful are the empowered.” The focus of my practice is to empower individuals and families struggling with many of life's problems. Whether it is coping with COVID or over exposure to the media; dealing with stress from work, school, or a relationship; coping with an illness; or struggling with an addiction, life's problems can seem overwhelming and even debilitating at times. The good news is we hold the answers to our struggles, and can find them if given the opportunity to talk them out in a safe and judgment free environment.

Problems are meant to be worked on, people are meant to be worked with. The therapy process offers a way to work through your problems while you are partnered with, heard and supported. Many paths can be taken, all intersect with the paths of others. If your path involves grief over the loss of a loved one, relationship, health, home, job, way of life, part of yourself, then I can help. If, along the way, you struggle with ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, parenting or eldercare, I can equip you with tools and skills to help you cope.

Over twenty years as an ordained minister and equestrian I noticed how horses were helping me, so I developed Integrative Equine Therapy. In a non-clinical environment, a horse and IET Therapist create a safe space. We guide, encourage and support you in removing blocks, building new neural pathways from the trauma center to the conscious part of your brain, making it possible to respond rather than react to triggers. We call this "shifting perspective." With IET, you can find clarity of purpose, meaning and joy. Brown University's independent data on our therapeutic approach shows the success of IET. We work with all ages.

I work with adolescents and adults as they work through issues related to mood, anxiety, grief, sexuality and relationship issues. I believe in the importance of finding satisfaction in your relationships. In my view, the majority of mood symptoms stem from relational issues and the way we interact with people. Positive, satisfying connections to people is fundamental to mental health.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
