I want you to feel safe and supported.
I provide therapy services to individuals and couples seeking clarity and comfort in a life that may feel less so.
Help is available to you.
I have training and experience in a number of evidence based clinical approaches and work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues.
In a safe, supportive and confidential environment we will discuss your struggles and your strengths, identify your goals and together we will develop a plan unique to your individual needs
Individual therapy
Have you been struggling to do things differently but always seem to find yourself back in the place you started?
This is a frustrating pattern that can leave us feeling like there is no hope. The good news is that you are here, which means that you haven’t given up. This is the first step on the path toward a better future; I can help.
Everyone comes to therapy for their own reasons and to work on their unique “stuff.” My goal is to meet you where you are and understand how you see the world. I have training and experience in a number of therapeutic approaches and recognize that therapy is not “one size fits all.” Our life experiences, good and bad, make us who we are. Let’s work together to develop a path forward that is unique to you.
Couples counseling & premarital counseling
Have you and your partner been struggling to do things differently, but always seem to find yourself back in the place you started?
Let’s work together to identify and change patterns that aren’t working well for your relationship. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approaches you, your partner and I will work as a team to explore what is getting in the way of the two of you connecting like you used to and develop ways to help you move forward so you can be true partners in your relationship.
As a Marriage & Family Therapist I specialize in relationships and working with all of the challenges that sometimes go along with our connections or with others. As humans we are interdependent and are wired for connection with others but sometimes it’s not easy. Together we will explore your past relationships and how they might be affecting the present. If you are struggling in your relationships with your partner, parents, children or others, let’s talk about it. I can help.
Parenting & Co-parenting
Parenting can be the most rewarding and sometimes challenging job we ever do.
Are you looking for insight into your child’s behavior and want to develop tools to help you feel more successful as a parent or in your co-parenting relationship? You are in the right place. My 30-year career has been focused on work with children and families and I have lived experience raising two children of my own. I understand the challenges and rewards and can help you make changes that will lead to a more harmonious home.
First Responders
I am passionate about giving back to those who serve to keep our communities and country safe. I have additional training and cultural competence in working with first responders and members of the military.
Working in an emergency response field over time can take a toll on even the most seasoned veteran. Have the coping strategies you have always relied upon become less effective? Are your experiences on the job interfering with your ability to enjoy your time outside of work or taking a toll on your relationships? If so, I understand and can help.
I invite you to reach out.
I understand how difficult it can be to ask for help, especially if you are used to solving problems rather than having them. Asking for help can be a big step but one which will put you on the path toward a better future. I have an open and authentic style and offer a free 15-minute consultation where we can discuss your unique situation and how I can help.
