At times our responsibilities, emotions, and relationships create stress and anxiety in our lives. Not knowing where to turn to get help is an uncomfortable feeling.

There are variables from these areas that can be explored in your sessions. My goal is to create an environment that allows you to travel down a path to positive solutions.

Others try to take back their power by engaging in behavior that they typically wouldn’t agree with.
Have you gone through a trauma that is causing you to struggle in your relationships? Has your child gone through trauma and you don’t know how to help? Has anxiety and depression seemed to take over? Have you decided enough is enough, and it’s time for a change? If so, our practice is just the place for you. I began a career as a therapist after working with children and their families in education, seeing first hand how the effects of mental health can negatively affect a family unit. I specialize in trauma informed care to both adolescents and adults to lower the symptoms and behaviors that cause a negative impact.

Anger management involves cognitive, behavioral, and insight oriented therapy.
As a professional counselor licensed in 2001 and in private practice since 2003, I have enjoyed working with clients seeking healthy changes in their lives. I find that many clients already know the answers to their own questions and benefit most from collaboration on breaking through limiting beliefs and behaviors. While the decision to seek counseling can be difficult and stressful, many report that my practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy is very comforting. I provide services to adolescents and adults in individual, couples, or family settings. I will also be offering anger management group therapy in the near future.

As such, my therapeutic style is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing(EMDR)/Internal Family Systems(IFS).
Do you have difficulty maintaining focus and a piece of mind? Are you someone who appears to have it all together, but still find yourself experiencing unpredictable emotions, bouts of anxiety and depression that have strained your relationships? Do you have an internal fear that you will be exposed as broken? Trauma serves as a filter, a lens through which a person views the world. Everything is shaded differently. It can have you feeling like “What’s wrong with me?” and “I’ll never feel at home with myself” or “Why does life have to be this hard?”. So now you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to feel relief.

I encourage and empower my clients to explore their identity to discover patterns of behavior to work through towards living a more fulfilled life.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. At this point in your life, you could be thinking “something isn’t working.” Or, sometimes, “nothing is working.” Maybe you don’t enjoy the activities that used to bring you joy. Perhaps your sleeping pattern has changed and you’re often getting little to no sleep. You have tried to make change on your own, but your attempts leave you stuck in the same place, frustrated, and hopeless; now you would like help.
