I’m not your typical therapist. I'm real. I'm approachable. And I don't think therapy should be some stale, clinical, sterile experience. That doesn’t sound like a great therapy experience to me! I work with women who are seeking change in their life – related to career, social life, personal development – but don’t know where to start or how to make positive change happen. Within the therapy setting I create a welcoming environment by taking on a solution focused approach, utilizing empathy, challenging you when appropriate, and using humor at times.

I specialize in counseling grief and loss from a unique experiential perspective, as I was widowed in my late thirties. This was my underlying motivation to return to graduate school in my early fifties to enter the counseling profession. I have a passion to help others through loss in the same way that I was helped. I also specialize in counseling for substance abuse and its effects on individuals and their loved ones, using both Twelve Step and cognitive behavioral approaches.

I believe that each individual has the strength and potential to live the life they have always dreamed of living! I am passionate about working with children and families. I have particular interest in helping stressed families deal with challenges associated with parenting and family dynamics. I truly believe that individuals know how to solve their own problems, however, they may lack self-confidence, support, or the courage to do so. Anxiety catches us and fear holds us, but we are not destined to live a life without hope!

Do you ever feel like you're not "enough", yet "too much" all at the same time? So many of us wrestle with shame, insecurities, the pressure of high expectations, the need to please others, and perfectionistic thinking. You may be experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, or insecurity. Yet the more you try to "fix" yourself, the more helpless you feel.

My ideal clients are adults, adolescents, and children who are open to learning about how their thought patterns affect their overall wellbeing. While working together, you can expect to identify negative or unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and ways to alter them and cope healthily. People need to feel heard, seen, and validated, and that happens when a strong therapeutic relationship is built. My experiences in connecting with different people (and myself) through counseling have shown me how impactful creating a safe and therapeutic space for people can be. Because everyone is different, I like to let my clients take the lead.

People should live happier, healthier lives. That is what all people want and deserve. My focus is on helping people achieve ALL of their goals. Everyone goes through tough times. Some people go through them on their own, but sometimes it takes a professional, unbiased perspective to help. People are the result of both nature (inherited traits) and nurture (environment) which form lenses through which we perceive the world. Through life experience, lenses can become scratched or cloudy. Bring the drive to improve and I will provide the experience, empathy, and knowledge. Let's make them clear again, together, as a team!

Career Counseling Therapists

How do I know if I need career counseling?

Determining whether a career counselor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counseling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counselor.

Who can benefit from career counseling?

Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counseling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counseling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counselor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counseling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.

How long does career counseling typically last?

The length of career counseling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking. Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counseling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counselor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.

How to prepare for career counseling?

Clients can prepare for career counseling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counselor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counselor, particularly if the career counselor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counseling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
