The decision to begin therapy can be challenging, you have just taken a courageous first step. I view therapy as a collaborative process, where clients are encouraged to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate setting. Our work together will help you understand yourself in relation to the world around you and to your life experiences. I believe in mind/body connection and incorporate mindfulness into my practice. Research shows that empowering clients with stress management techniques and mindfulness practice helps decrease levels of stress and anxiety and improves quality of life. View 4 Photos My therapeutic style is empathetic, supportive, and direct. I incorporate humor and laughter whenever possible. I work most often treating symptoms related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, substance use and life transitions and combine cognitive-behavioral, relational, mindfulness, Gottman (level 2) and psychodynamic approaches. I hope we can identify difficulties, think about where they have originated from, and learn coping skills to hopefully eradicate the difficulties you presented to therapy with. During treatment, I hope to facilitate growth and result in an overall healthier version of you.

*** CURRENTLY NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS *** Therapy offers the opportunity to make lasting positive changes in life and in relationships. By exploring the role the past has played in current difficulties and dissolving old, destructive patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving, life can be more balanced and joyful. I offer warmth, compassion, support, and insight to my clients, with an approach that is direct, non-judgmental, and tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual. Oriented toward building on natural strengths and empowering meaningful changes, our work together can foster an increased ability to more adaptively attend to the ever-changing flow of life. Together, we will work toward identifying destructive behavioral patterns and replace them with empathy for ourselves and those around us. Learning the art of non-judgmental awareness - mindfulness - we will explore these themes, connecting more intimately with the memories, emotions, thoughts, and sensations fundamentally associated with them. By exploring unmet childhood and current attachment needs, we learn to conquer self-defeating habits and discover a new way of approaching our thoughts, emotions, and personal behavior. Empowering ourselves to get our basic needs met in this way, we move toward creating greater balance, harmony, and joy in our lives.

I believe counseling should be more than just managing symptoms and changing behavior. we each have a story that may be effecting how we are living life today. Additionally, many times in life we experience loss and this goes unprocessed, unheard, and many people become silent sufferers, which can then lead to more significant mental health struggles. By helping individuals and couples mourn their loss, I help individuals not get stuck in their grief and find renewal, balance, hope and healing. I am a licensed professional counselor with 20 years experience working in the mental health field. Having worked in a wide range of settings from psychiatric hospitals, large health care systems and in private practice, I have refined my skills and have chosen to specialize in Grief and Loss, Trauma Healing, EMDR, and Couples therapy. I believe that everyone struggles with something, though not all struggles look the same. I am honored to use my natural skill sets to help individuals find healing in their life and their relationships through looking at the present, past, and future through objective compassionate eyes.

Did you know that we are biologically wired to seek out connection, understanding and soothing from our fellow human beings? When connection and understanding are not happening with others, we become dysregulated and engage in behaviors that, on the surface, may not make a lot of sense to us. I will help you understand your behaviors and from this place of understanding and acceptance you can make the changes you desire. Emotional and physical safety is one of the most important factors in a successful therapeutic experience. Together we can work to create a relationship in which you feel heard and understood. I am eclectic in my approach but the underlying foundation of all of my treatment approaches is the belief that we are wired for attachment, connection and belonging with each other. When these needs are not met, we are not living to our full potential. I utilize Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy among others to increase connection and belonging. If you are tired of beating yourself up and believing that you are "too much" or "not enough", please reach out. Together, we can create the changes you desire.

CURRENTLY NOT Accepting Clients. I love my work as a couples' counselor. As a Gottman Seven Principles Program Educator, I have 20+ years experience helping couples & individuals improve communication, rekindle intimacy and improve awareness of patterns that may result in defensiveness, feeling "not heard" by your partner. In individual therapy, I create a warm environment so clients feel comfortable to share their issues. Together we develop goals & strategies for cultivating positive changes.

View 5 Photos Together with my clients, I help identify personal strengths, increase self-worth, explore family behavioral patterns and roadblocks to developing healthy relationships.

The most important aspect of therapy is helping clients uncover their inherent strengths and empowering them to create lasting change in themselves and their relationships!
