Sometimes life challenges set us back, block us from full potential, or even begin to overwhelm, control, and paralyze helpful thoughts and emotions. Counseling, with the assistance of a professional who supports, cares, and listens without judgement, is a way to navigate through difficult areas in our lives. As a licensed therapist, I specialize in a broad array of issues- including life stressors, interpersonal issues, anxiety, depression and trauma. I invite you to explore with me, through a variety of techniques, how you can begin to stabilize emotions, discover coping skills, and heal.

Now Taking New Clients! How are you doing today? I know at times things can be hard, but I am here for you. Let me help you deal with life's struggles and issues, and work on healing, growing, or in reaching your full potential. Therapy is not a one-dimensional place where you go to only talk about your feelings, but a place where you can holistically work on yourself. Therapy should be a safe place for people to understand themselves, unburden, heal, and morph themselves- all on their own terms. No matter what diagnosis or problem I guarantee I will go on this journey with you.

I believe the most important story you will ever hear that will impact your life is the one you continually tell and believe about yourself. My goal as your therapist is to help individuals, couples and families take the necessary steps needed to heal via helping them re-author their story. The work I do with people involves helping them heal through facing their hard truths. Through my experience with personal hardships and what society would see as failures, I have come to the realization that perfection is an illusion and a more realistic obtainable goal is to strive for excellence – meaning continually trying to do your best.

You’ve lost yourself. Somewhere along the way, whether during a toxic relationship or maybe with ongoing anxiety, you’ve become so different, you barely recognize the person you used to be. You used to be confident, independent, and capable. Now… you can scarcely imagine a life that’s not filled with doubt and the overwhelm of racing thoughts. At one point, you had joy and hope in your life, but now your life is unrecognizable due to the stress of it all. You want to take back control of your life! You want to find inner peace and find your voice. You’re tired of feeling like you’re treading water but not getting anywhere.

I am not currently accepting new clients. I enjoy working with families of teens as they navigate: ADD, behavioral problems, school performance, ASD, managing responsibilities, questions about faith, peer relationships, and issues concerning social media. I also enjoy working with older adults and families providing care for older adults. If you are wondering whether or not I would be a good fit for you or for a member of your family, give me a call--if you and I sense that you might benefit greater from working with another therapist, I will gladly help you set up that connection.

Throughout life we experience various situations and circumstances which cause us distress. We then adapt to these experiences, with the hope of preventing anymore distress in the future. However, sometimes when we adapt to these circumstances, we adapt in negative ways that may lead to avoidance, anger, isolation, or any other behaviors that could negatively impact daily living, personal relationships, and professional relationships. As a client within therapy, it is important to work on identifying where these maladaptive behaviors started, and working together to seek out positive solutions.
