I have an unusual combination of specialties as both a clinical counselor and a spiritual director. I absolutely love working with couples and am trained in the Developmental Model; a system that follows the stages of relationship development. I also have specialized training to treat anxiety disorders like Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Panic Disorder and utilize ERP for OCD and In Vivo treatment where appropriate. I also have a Divinity degree and a background in a faith-based non-profit, which make integrating a client's faith a particular joy in therapy.

Are you a teenager or a young adult? Do you feel lost, anxious about major life changes, stuck in bad habits and repetitive thought patterns, or terrified of the future? Perhaps you're struggling in school and you don't know why, or you're trying to figure out a sustainable career in a tumultuous economy. Maybe something you thought you understood no longer feels right, like your gender, your sexuality, or your belief system.

I believe by exploring our past experiences and relationships we can find answers to better understand our own behaviors and thought processes. Our best healing happens throughout the context of a safe relationship and that is what I offer in therapy; a safe place where my client can explore their pain, trauma, hurt, and confusion in order to heal and live the most meaningful life possible. My clients know what their goals are and are excited to get to work but may need more accountability or support. Sometimes they aren't so clear and I can help with that, too.

The journey to be your best self is too important to take alone. So it would be my pleasure to help guide you to a better, clearer tomorrow – mentally, physically, and emotionally. My approach as a psychotherapist is one of understanding where you are now, and then working together to reach the place you desire to be. We’ve all walked a unique life path and had different experiences that shaped us, so my approach is not cookie-cutter at all. I believe in hope, inspiration, and the power of the individual. We are stronger than we realize, but the key to mental clarity and emotional well-being sometimes remains elusive.

When starting my Private Practice years ago, I felt it was very important to create a therapeutic space where my Clients would feel comfortable, listened to and understood. A place where they could be themselves, speak openly and honestly and gain insight and perspective. My approach has always been genuine and straight forward, with a strong touch of honesty, encouragement and optimism. Relationships, family life and parenting can be so stressful and feel very overwhelming at times. I look forward to talking with you to determine how I can best help and support you and your family.

We all face challenges throughout our lives. What defines us is how we choose to address the issue. Mental illness is not uncommon but what can be uncommon is having the courage to seek help. Issues surrounding mental health often arise during major transitions whether it be age, school, work, family, or loss. A diagnosis of a serious mental illness should not define you or hold you back. Fighting a mental illness can be exhausting. Don't go this alone. Let's talk about your goals and dreams and get you back on track to living your full life. I will push you to reach your potential but I will also be by your side through it all.
