Caught up in compulsive sexual behavior, pornography, infidelity, sexual temptation, or relationship distress? Does it feel betraying to your partner? Do you feel betrayed? Traumatized/retraumatized by the experience, or by failed recovery efforts? Trying recovery on your own? Stuck on “why . . .” questions? Does your status in life limit treatment? Contrary to the experience, you want to reconcile your relationship, you want a new normal. Discovered recently or years ago, the guilt, shame, and betrayal pain can repeatedly feel like it yesterday. There is hope and healing for the compulsive partner and for the traumatized partner.

Do you feel overwhelmed? Anxious? Unsure? I believe relationships can be our greatest source of healing but they may need help to achieve that point. I work with individuals and couples who do not feel understood, are questioning themselves, and do not know where they are headed. Have you experienced a past trauma that you are struggling to heal from? Are you having difficulties in areas of your life that you feel should be easy? My goal is to empower my clients and meet the client where they are. I strive to make therapy a source of support in my clients' life to help them heal, grow, and thrive. I will meet you where you are.

Life can be so overwhelming. You have so much you want to accomplish but you don't know where to start. You're exhausted from constantly putting on a mask of happiness, meeting everyone else's needs, and wishing someone could see through the smile and understand your pain. Pain from the past and worries about the future make it so hard to live in the present. Imagine talking to someone who can validate your feelings and help you understand it. You don't have to walk this journey alone. Therapy is a place to share your thoughts and feelings you've been trying to understand on your own. We all need support and I would like to help.

Not accepting new clients
I am thankful and encouraged that you have started exploring therapy. I acknowledge this first brave step. I don’t believe therapy is a “one size fits all,” and place high priority on working to find a treatment model that best fits your goals and needs. Whether you are seeking therapy to heal from a history of or recent trauma, learn healthy coping skills, process grief, identify patterns of negative thinking and behavior, improve family dynamics or find new parenting strategies, we can find a treatment plan that uniquely suits you.

Your path to self-discovery starts with clear goals and techniques to tackle any obstacles. Relationship conflicts can affect every area of your life and fuel depression and anxiety. Finding a renewed self-esteem can help you create healthier partnerships, friendships, and families. My work focuses on challenging negative self talk and ineffective behaviors through positive communication, behavioral interventions, and improved self-care. I believe in working collaboratively to help patients build on their personal strengths and find their path to meaningful relationships and happiness.

I transitioned a couple of years ago from Texas to Indiana and have empathy for anyone going through a transitional process. I am still seeing Texas clients virtually; still taking TX BCBS. I am currently taking new clients at my Bloomfield, Indiana, location. I am also certified to see Indiana clients virtually. I grew up northeast of Bloomfield. It has taken several years to get back, but I am excited to be offering my services in my hometown. I believe that coming along beside a person, and walking with them in their journey, is a step of trust. Exploring the situation together can make the journey easier.
