In a therapeutic relationship, it’s about you. It’s about listening deeply. It’s about asking the right questions and holding space for precious silence. It’s about utilizing a diverse range of clinical skills and life experiences to assist you with what is happening in your life right now, and teaching you skills that will allow you to help yourself in the future. We cannot change the past or other people, but we can still grow and change and find ways to thrive.

Life can bring storms that challenge us, creating different ways to try to calm the storm. I hope to help empower my clients to understand themselves, their bodies, & their needs to be able to approach the storms in a way that brings healing & calm. I specialize in working with children/adolescents and those with issues of body image (your view of your body, including size, racial identity, sexual identity, gender identity, abledness, age, and other views). Also, I work with all persons of ages to address concerns of anger, anxiety, social behaviors, self-esteem, sensory reactions, and adjusting to significant life events.

In our lives we will experience suffering, hardship and brokenness. Our lives are impacted individually and relationally by it. Often we find ourselves enraged, running, or hiding as we come into contact with areas of life that seem uncontrollable and daunting. The burden weighs heavy as we are unable to be who we were created to be. The depth of suffering becomes magnified in ourselves and our relationships and we desire for a lasting change. Sometimes holding to a biblical worldview can make counseling questionable amidst the hardships of life. Knowing that your counselor has the same worldview can be helpful and reassuring.

I will utilize concepts from attachment theory, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and gestalt therapy to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your situations. Attachment theory endorses my overall practice values of gathering a deeper understanding of you and your situation. While the structure of CBT may not be for everyone, I adapt concepts from this theory depending on your needs and goals. Lastly, components of Gestalt Therapy will tend to growth in your self-awareness and self-acceptance as a key stepping stone to your personal growth and goal achievement.

We become comfortable with the uncomfortable and then we often question ourselves on the choices we made. The unknown can seem more uncomfortable but what does it take to feel confident in making those changes? The Wellness Model is centered on healthy lifestyles, experiencing less anxiety, depression, etc, when all dimensions of the self are being cared for. These dimensions include physical, emotional, occupational, spiritual, social, and intellectual wellness. This model is coupled with Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy in which the participant engages in mindful changes to the thought process to invoke healthier and more realistic thought and feeling.

On any given day, we face countless stressors and challenges. We may begin to see the world as burdensome, puzzling, and just too heavy to bare. “Life on life’s terms” can be a daunting and overwhelming prospect, even for the strongest among us. We live in a world that is increasingly demanding. More and more, people feel isolated and disconnected. We can become anxious, fearful, lonely, and angry. The good news? People CAN and DO change. They overcome. I've worked with countless people who have made positive change and had positive outcomes.
