It is vital for each client to feel comfortable with their counselor. Therapy works best when it is open and honest so that trust is built within sessions. The client and counselor work together as a team to find the problems, set goals, and put effort into the solutions so that the client can grow into who they desire to become.

My ideal client wants change. Although they may be struggling, they are trying to hold on to hope. There is hope. If you are struggling with depression and anxiety, trying to cope with past trauma or just navigating life's challenges, there is hope. I work from a cognitive behavioral model to understand the connection of our thoughts, feelings, and actions and how one may be stuck in a cycle with these thoughts and feelings dragging them down. I am an active counselor, so I don't just sit back, we work together with you developing the skills you need to move forward with your life. I also provide EMDR services.

I am a mother of 2 boys, ages 21 and 25. I truly enjoyed every minute of raising them, even the hard moments. My oldest son is now married and in Seattle with his wife. My youngest is the fireball who has DiGeorge syndrome. It was challenging many times, but I have been his advocate through his entire life and still am to this day. I am now an empty nester with just my sweet dog Dixon, an American Eskimo.

I hope to be someone you can seek support from, but who can also help to guide you to feel more in control, more grounded, and better able to face everyday stressors that pop up along the way. I believe we all have the power to grow from challenges; we just need the right guidance and space to do so. I love walking alongside clients to help them navigate these challenges.

Every client has a story. I help my client explore their story, values and beliefs. I enjoy a client who likes to interact with these issues and want to work to see the "why" behind their beliefs and behaviors. I also enjoy clients who like to set goals for themselves and their relationships and are willing to work towards them.

Would you like to put your marriage back together, resolve conflict in a relationship, develop more effective parenting skills, or have a better understanding of your child's behaviors? Are you feeling depressed and struggling to find answers for the way you feel? Do you feel anxious at times and don't know where to turn? Are you grieving over a lost relationship? We can develop a plan with achievable goals, that will help you get where you want to be. My approach to healing, is one that emphasizes how our thoughts impact how we feel and what we do. All sessions are in person only.

Do you feel as though you will never have a healthy relationship: with your family? with your significant other? with yourself? with food? Do you struggle to love and appreciate the person staring back at you in the mirror? Do you feel stuck in habits that result in self-sabotage and feelings of shame? Do you feel unworthy or undeserving of stability or contentment, so you turn to unhealthy eating patterns, toxic relationships, or substances? Maybe the trauma you have experienced has not been managed effectively and you don't have the tools to heal and feel relief.

My therapeutic approach employs flexible integration. This style enables the counseling experience to be tailored to the individual needs and style of each client. This can range from behavioral to psychodynamic techniques. The methods are different but complimentary in order to give each client the most effective experience. Clients will feel free to express their innermost thoughts, feelings, and ideas through a non-threatening, non-judgmental environment. Utilizing techniques that complement each unique personality will enable clients to gain confidence in achieving their goals.

Life can be overwhelming; we can feel lost, aimless, and alone as we try to determine where we fit in. Maybe school, friends, family, or the expectations placed on you feel like too much. You feel like you should have it all figured out and be put together, but you just keep coming up short. Throw in the noise of the world around you and it's no wonder so many are anxious or confused. You want a better way of managing stress and navigating relationship struggles. You want to be seen and understood, and to have a sense of peace. You want to find a place you can really be yourself, and maybe even figure out what that means.

Therapy is a personal journey and we can always cater the approach towards what will suit you best!

You know something in your life needs to change, but you feel powerless or overwhelmed on where to start. You beat yourself up wondering why it’s so difficult for you to take action when everyone else seems to have their act together. Consequently, you end up doing nothing, and the cycle of shame continues. Believe me, I can empathize, and more than that, I can help. What I want you to know, more than anything, is that there's nothing wrong with you, and you're not broken. You just need to take that first small step towards the healing you truly want, and I encourage you to start today by reaching out to me by phone call or email.

Children often do not have the words to express what they are thinking or feeling. Traditional talk therapy alone is rarely successful in helping children process difficult life situations. I help children overcome anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I also assist parents in building strong, open relationships with their children. If your child is going through anxiety, sadness, behavior problems, social issues, or life changes (divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.) I am happy to walk along side them in their journey. In addition to working with children, I also see teens and adults.

I am glad you found me! If you are here, most likely you or somebody you care about has encountered circumstances that are creating obstacles in life. I am here to help kids, adolescents or adults overcome their distress so that they can thrive and become the best version of themselves. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, behavioral challenges, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, or that are neurodivergent. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment for all of my clients and their families.
