Therapy is a space where you can explore the full range of your experience and have compassionate witness for whatever arises. Together we can tend to all the relationships of life, including relationship to yourself and the non-human world. We can explore deep longings, desires, and fears. We can bring care and understanding to old patterns to access choice, connection, pleasure, and new ways of being. I am comfortable exploring sexual health topics with clients, including how to have more fulfilling intimate and sensual experiences and increase awareness and acceptance of one's desire and sexuality.

I believe that a therapeutic relationship is the most important component for the therapy process to be effective and worthwhile.
My therapeutic approach to therapy is client-centered, based on the belief that every person brings a unique and formative personal, family, and cultural experience. I have been influenced by Adlerian psychology, with emphasis on the healing power of a therapist-client relationship. I focus on who you are and how you experience yourself, strengths and “growth edges”, past and current relationship experience, and your style of relating, in addition to biological experiences on behavior and the influence of culture/society on you and your concerns.

I also enjoy working with individuals who are not Christian and provide a judgment free relationship.
I offer therapy to relieve anxiety and depression and discover the underlying causes. I also specialize in trauma and PTSD. If you've seen other therapists without results, it may be because you've only participated in talk or cognitive therapy. I've found that deeply ingrained beliefs and coping mechanisms that develop when we're young are often responsible for dysfunction or repeated negative emotions later in life. I offer therapy to help you discover the reasons for triggers and patterns of behavior and how to change them. Unfortunately, I do not take insurance.

I offer holistic individual, family, couples/ relationship, and group therapy.
Healing and caring for ourselves is hard work. Sometimes painful, often fulfilling, occasionally tedious, it is a necessary part of being open to the experiences that life has to offer us. Therapy is one way to find support in healing from trauma, managing our health, and discovering and practicing new ways of caring for ourselves. As Audre Lorde wrote, "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare." This work is important, both individually and collectively, and I am here to help you with it.

I am a trained Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, trained Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program provider, as well as a trained Nurturing Parenting Program provider.
Many times in our lives we believe that overcoming obstacles is like attempting the impossible. We continue to feel lonely, make the same mistakes, and have the same fears, self- doubts that eventually cause us to believe that life will always be the same. Counseling can assist you in making the changes that you desire in your life. Providing you the opportunity to explore new avenues in which you might not have believed before. This journey may not be easy; however, it is one that can bring out the change you have been longing for.

I prioritize the establishment of a therapeutic relationship, which can aid in rebuilding trust in others.
Feeling isolated and disconnected from friends, family, and life in general can be an incredibly exhausting and challenging experience. It may seem like you're on the outside looking in, not knowing how to bridge the gap. These feelings can stem from various sources, such as past trauma, fear of trusting others, or low self-esteem. Therapy offers a safe and supportive environment to delve into your emotions, work through trauma, and develop healthy coping strategies. This process can help you establish boundaries and form meaningful, supportive relationships.

My practice is broad-based, from anxiety and relationship issues, to complex trauma and existential crisis.
In the field of mental health, we talk a lot about issues and disorders. But that overlooks an important question: What does it mean to be mentally ordered? What would a mentally ordered life look and feel like? What would be different? If you have been stuck in a rut (or find it hard to get out of bed), if you have been unable to stop doing things in ways that don’t work, or find you get in your own way and find it’s time to develop more workable ways of seeing and acting, therapy can help with that. In my practice I utilize approaches that include CBT, trauma and attachment, acceptance and commitment, and evolutionary practices.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
