I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and provide comprehensive DBT services.
Are your emotions driving your behaviors and negatively impacting your life? Growing up in a dysfunctional family, I didn’t learn how to cope with my emotions, let alone the ups and downs that life throws at us! In our sessions, I want you to know that you aren’t alone. I believe that my 35-year recovery journey gives me a unique perspective of what it means to live a life worth living. When we meet, I want you to feel safe and understood so that someday you can reflect on this challenging time and be grateful you were brave enough to take the steps to heal.

Trying to understand the “standard rules” of behavior was always confusing and overwhelming. When they said, “Don’t cry. Stop acting out. Sit still. Stop being so difficult. You’re too sensitive.”, you heard, “What’s wrong with you?”. You’ve been trying your hardest to figure that answer out ever since. Your focus and attention are precious, so hyper-focusing on something fun and exciting, i.e., TV, Video games, Sports, just made you feel better. It certainly helped tune everything labeled “wrong” or “bad” out, even if it was just for a little while.

Often, “bad behavior” is just a child’s way of telling us they have an unmet need or don't have enough coping skills.
Limited spots available! Hi, I'm Noelle, I'm passionate about helping children, teens and adults be the best versions of themselves. I believe that all people have an innate tendency toward growth. However, growth can be impacted by life events we may not have control over. Noelle will work with you to explore any barriers and roadblocks that have come your way, while also helping you get to know yourself and your strengths. Noelle supports neurodiversity by providing individualized care. Not all brains work the same- and that’s okay, and even great! Noelle uses acceptance, validation and provides advocacy skills where needed.

My approach to counseling stems from eclecticism, where I pull from multiple therapeutic methods such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy, to name a few.
Life can bring unique challenges that trigger depression, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, addiction, grief, relational setbacks, and suicidal thoughts. My goal as your counselor is to meet you where you are by providing a listening ear and cultivating an environment of warmth and care, empowerment, and hope. My commitment is to walk alongside you throughout your journey of self-discovery while introducing you to healthy strategies that will help you cope with the disappointments you encounter. Additionally, if you desire Christian counseling, please let me know, and I’ll be happy to accommodate.

Career coaching addresses finding the right career path, making decisions regarding entrepreneurial ventures or retirement options. In many instances career coaching and emotional concerns appear concurrently. Executive Coaching covers leadership & management skills. I have extensive experience in career counseling and executive coaching. For the past 15 years I have worked in person and virtually with thousands of clients globally. I also assist adolescents in college coaching. We work together to match their interests with colleges. I then provide guidance throughout the entire college application process.
