I work with individuals,adults and couples. I see each person as a unique individual with strengths and challenges. It is my goal to create a feeling of safety and compassion. It can take courage to enter into therapy and I work with each person in a way that respects their pace, accesses their inner resources, and supports and guides them as new insights and behaviors are evolving. I also use Hypnotherapy and am certified through the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. Hypnosis can enhance change, help with anxiety, depression, pain, and increase relaxation as well as other issues. Clients have found that Hypnosis effects their lives in positive ways. Experincing less anger, more patience with themselves and others, increased self acceptance, and the ability to transform and maintain changes. They report the experience of relaxation provides inner calm, new insights, and when practiced has an accumalitive benefit.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is reach out and make that phone call for support. When a part of you realizes the issues or struggles are beginning to feel too overwhelming to manage alone. Although it may not feel like it at the time this is your inner strength that has always been there wanting to guide you forward on your path... Maybe you may feel stuck in certain areas of your life and wish to move forward but are unsure of how to do that. Or you have placed the needs of others before your own. Perhaps at times you might even feel unworthy of help. This is the time to invest in yourself and your potential. I have had the privilege of working with clients for 18 years in a community mental health setting. I have also had the opportunity to work as a crisis counselor case manager in an emergency room supporting clients with their mental health. My experience has also involved working for an Employee Assistance Program providing brief counseling and support. Creating a safe and trusting environment is the foundation for you to explore your feelings, thoughts and concerns. My goal is to provide a sense of calm, support and acceptance while we work together at your pace and comfort level. Always focusing on your unique strengths and resilience.

Making the decision to ask for help can be difficult. The truth is, seeking guided support is a sign of strength. From time to time, we all need a little help to realize our own potential. Using a combination of therapy, meditation, mindfulness techniques and healthy lifestyle changes, together we can break old negative cycles and resolve current troublesome issues. No matter your age, whether you seek individual, couples, family or group therapy, it is my job to empower and encourage you to walk safely through the maze of human life. You are not alone. I am comfortable working with a wide variety of presenting issues. In order to individually tailor therapy to each person, I believe an eclectic approach is most effective. Therefore, my approach includes components of different modalities, such as Eye Movement Desenitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Gestalt, Person Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness. In 2010 I completed my training in Eye Movement Desenitization and Reprocessing therapy. Like many psychotherapists, I have found that this mindful and progressive form of therapy is effective with many clients. Currenly I am working towards certification in EMDR. In addition, I am dedicated to continuing my education in all aspects of therapy.

Clients often come to me because they struggle with anxious or depressive symptoms and don't know how to improve. They are often surprised to learn that underlying these symptoms are often seemingly unrelated beliefs and feelings about relationships - particular relationships and relationships in general - that they didn't even know were there. Often clients believe that there is something "wrong" with them and their mental health, not understanding that with the right language to tell their story they often find that they make perfect sense! In addition to relationships and Schema, I also explore personality, values, and goals. View 7 Photos I love to help people improve and strengthen their relationships, or just learn to set healthier boundaries and practice better self-care. I know how important, but also difficult, relationships can be. I have experience with divorce, co-parenting, blending families, being a step-parent, adoptive parent, and biological parent, and the family court system. I love coming along clients and helping them to explore their life stories and relationships, and giving them new ways of relating to others and themselves. This often leads not only to a decrease in mental health symptoms such as anxiety and depression, but also to increased self-awareness, meaning, and hope for a healthier and happier future.

Often, life leads you to a point where you feel stuck. The same strategies that might have worked before are no longer effective. Maybe this is because of life transitions, relationship challenges or just a sense that you want something more. If you feel overwhelmed by work, school, family or relationships, consider how processing those feelings and developing new insights and skills might give you the self-awareness to live a peaceful and more purpose driven life. My goal as a clinician is to help you understand your own unique strengths through your own personal narrative. Once you own your strengths and values, we will work to develop necessary skills to feel genuinely confident in your potential. I love to support anyone that is committed to making personal change. While it isn't always easy, you don't have to go it alone. Consider reaching out and taking the first steps towards your most authentic life.

I believe that we all have unique strengths and perspectives that are valuable and can serve as a foundation of growth and development. In therapy I help you to recognize and accept your strengths and see the positives in the areas you may see negatively. I take a strengths-based, integrative approach in therapy. I have worked with a wide range of ages, including children, teens, and adults on issues including depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, grief, loss, anger, and trauma. I specialize in working with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD, Down syndrome, cognitive disabilities, and autism. I utilize a mix of therapy approaches that are tailored to your needs and interests, including humanistic, person-centered, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and art therapy. I treat you as the expert in yourself and view my role as guiding you to find helpful ways to express and cope with emotions and consider new ways of thinking about experiences. As an art therapist, I use the power of art to allow for unique methods of self-expression, communication, and regulation. Art can also be used to augment traditional methods of talk therapy to provide a very impactful, positive experience. You can expect to work with a wide variety of media depending on your unique strengths and goals in therapy.

My role is to listen, empower growth, and help you become the best version of yourself. I offer an approach influenced by person-centered, conversational style, drawing upon gestalt, CBT, mindfulness, and childhood trauma work.
