Welcome to my psychotherapy practice. With over 20 years of experience, I offer children, families, and adults a safe and accepting environment to explore and gain a better understanding of the issues most affecting their lives. Rather than solely focusing on behaviors or symptoms, I work with individuals and families on gaining insight and understanding into the various underlying causes of their thoughts, feelings, and actions. It is only then that meaningful and long-lasting change is possible. For adults, feelings of worry, sadness, anger, guilt, stress, and self-doubt are often caused by a combination of present life circumstances and troubling past experiences. Together, we will work on helping you make inner changes and choices that will ultimately lead to a more meaningful, satisfying, and enjoyable life. Children often have difficulty putting their feelings into words. Instead, they "act out" these feelings within their relationships with parents, siblings, and others. The goal of child therapy is to promote healthy and progressive emotional development. This is achieved through play and talk therapy along with parent guidance sessions.

When challenged with keeping up with it all, it is not uncommon to lose sight of who we really are, or what we really want. Through a collaborative and engaging therapeutic relationship where your unique interests are prioritized, perspective & balance can be restored. My niche is working with college students and young professionals, who are motivated to get the most out of life by discovering their authentic selves, defining a road map for future, and developing skills to cope with stress & adversity. Although my work is grounded in evidence-based practices, I have been told that sessions feel like talking to a wise friend. Respecting where you are today, I aim to listen attentively to what is working for you and where you feel there is room for growth, and assist you in taking steps to meet your desired goals. You will find sessions introduce practical strategies and skills in a relaxed versus formal manner, with the hope you will take away something useful from each meeting. I provide traditional psychotherapy as well as outdoor walking sessions for those seeking an active approach to mental health care. I also provide timely consultations (scheduled within one week) for those needing support with a specific, time sensitive issue (not a crisis, rather an important decision/dilemma etc.). I look forward to talking with you soon.

My first mentor in the field of counseling told me, “You can't take anyone to where you've never been.” This sage advice has stayed with me for the 30-plus years that I have had the privilege of operating in this profession. These words have encouraged me to continue my own journey of self-exploration and healing and then, in turn, helped me to be more equipped to offer and support in the healing relationships that I have been privileged to play a role in over the years. Children, adolescents, and families have been a particular area of focus and expertise for me. From working in traditional outpatient settings to inpatient settings View 5 Photos Healthy, working, therapeutic relationships start with the building blocks of a healthy relationship. For my clients, this includes providing a safe place to share information, thoughts, and feelings and setting mutually agreed upon goals for the progression of therapy. Sessions then become the process of working towards achieving these goals together. No matter what life has thrown your way, know that you are capable of growing in all the places people thought you never would. (Just as the captivating, resilient wildflowers do). Pull up a chair, take a deep breath, and know that you’re here for a reason. You’ve made it home!

The basis of my practice is rooted in the promise of hope. I believe that we are all capable of moving toward healthier versions of ourselves that can result in more functional emotional responses, deeper, more satisfying relationships, and redeemed living. My goal is to be a helper that provides a safe place to begin to move toward positive change. I partner well with individuals and couples who are tired of dealing with dysfunction and are motivated to work toward being a better version of themselves. I largely practice secular counseling, but have a degree in Christian counseling, which means that my psychotherapy practices align with my Christian theology. As a counseling staff member at Winthrop University, I have extensive experience working with college students, though my practice gladly accepts all teen and adult/couples clients. My approach to therapy is eclectic but largely incorporates elements of brief psychodynamic, attachment, and systems theories. I utilize talktherapy to elicit change and seek behavior patterns that are evident in relationships and personal narratives to target problematic thought processes. I am a trained trauma intervention, EMDR, and telehealth provider.

Are you overwhelmed or stuck in a rut? Part of being overwhelmed or stuck in a rut is feeling a loss of control. Changing your perspective, changes your reality. Changing both, allows and affords for a shift in how you reset your focus. Finding one's focus is all about taking a keen and hard look at you! What areas do you find that you need to bring into focus, and and what areas do you feel you need to push into the background? As well, which areas do you find that you simply need to blur? These are the questions that lead you to pause, breathe, reflect, and then do the work necessary to take better care of your well-being. I am committed to the wellness of individuals, their families, and the community through prevention, intervention, treatment, and education.

If you have questions or are ready to begin counseling, contact me today, and I'd be happy to explore how I can be of assistance on your journey towards becoming your best YOU.
