Functional Therapy is a wrap-around, holistic method including analysis of one's sleep, exercise, dietary, recreating and stress-juggling patterns. A tuned-up body/brain can significantly facilitate cognitive/emotive progress. A kaizen approach to change allows real-world, practical strategies for growth in a short time-frame. Some issues may take longer, yet with a brief, solution-focused approach many clients reach their goals within a few meetings. My approach is down-to-earth, unorthodox, humorous when needed and with gentle, yet straight-forward feedback building on strengths and resiliency you already possess.

Maya Angelou says, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better." I firmly believe that we all do the best we can with the knowledge we have at any moment in our lives. If there has been a time in your life when you felt "I should have done better," it's OK and very normal to feel that. It's when we recognize the need to do better, that we can make changes in our lives. Taking the step to get help will be the action that makes all the difference in your life. People often presume all therapists are good listeners, yet many do more talking. I am truly a "listener."

My therapy style is intuitive, explorative, and collaborative in nature. This allows for more than surface level interaction and can be helpful in breaking through barriers of avoidance and fear, as the journey into the Self can feel intimidating at times. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients as they overcome barriers they may have once believed were impossible to climb. I take a holistic approach to therapy, addressing core issues related to mind, body, and soul, rather than treating symptoms alone. In my experience, this approach leads to more profound and long- lasting change.
