Has life become overwhelming and stressful? Do you feel lost?
Are you struggling with emotions?
Has parenting become stressful and challenging?
Is your marriage struggling?
Has your life lost a sense of purpose?
Are you ready to learn new skills to help effect change so you can be happy again?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help you! Welcome to my counseling practice. If you are new to therapy or if you have been struggling for awhile, I hope that I can make you feel right at home in my office and give you a place to talk about your struggles, your emotions and the things that are making life a challenge. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with adults and couples. Whether you are a couple trying to work through hurt in your relationship, or the new mom struggling with postpartum depression, or the dad struggling with anxiety and stress at work trying to provide for his family, or a woman struggling with a transition in life, a loss or a divorce, I am here to help you find the right path forward. I am also a Christian counselor who works with those who are struggling in their faith, have lost hope, are struggling to find purpose and meaning, and need support on the journey.
Change is difficult. Finding the right therapist who is the best fit for you or your partner or your family is an essential part of successful therapy. I believe in client centered therapy and meeting my clients where they are at in this change process. Together, we can find the solutions to the problems that you are experiencing. I am truly appreciative of being able to walk with my clients through their struggles and help them get to a better place, whatever and wherever that might be.
I offer both individual therapy sessions and couples therapy sessions. I have an eclectic approach to therapy and will often combine cognitive behavioral strategies with solution focused techniques to help you change thinking patterns that contribute to your distress as well as to come up with some strategies and coping skills for your individual situation.
I often incorporate mindfulness and relaxation strategies to help reduce anxiety, stress and depression. I also take a holistic approach to therapy, making sure that you are functioning well in all areas of your life. I thoroughly enjoy working with couples as well. Nurturing our relationships is such an important but often overlooked part of our lives. If you are looking for faith based counseling, I will gladly incorporate elements of Christian counseling into your individual or couples sessions as well.
In addition, I treat teens in my practice. I offer individual and family therapy to help you and your teen learn new ways of thinking and feeling. I have been working with teens and families for over twenty years and truly love the energy and perspective teens bring to the therapy room. As a therapist, I firmly believe in working with and partnering with parents so I take a collaborative approach. Through family therapy, I will help you to find the right strategies to effectively support your teen and address his or her individual needs. I have found that no strategy works for every adolescent, but I am hopeful that together we can find the right fit for you and your adolescent. I strive to make therapy a place where they feel that they can talk about anything, especially if they don't feel like they are being listened to anywhere else. Adolescence is a time when your teen is trying to discover themselves and who they are, and there may be struggles in that process. For teens, it is important to have a level of confidentiality in therapy where they can share exactly what they are feeling and maybe say things aloud for the first time that they've been holding in for a long time. Adolescents are experiencing more challenges with anxiety, stress, depression and social pressure more now than ever. Through counseling I hope to provide the support they need to navigate all of this and thrive.
So if you are in need of support in any area of your life, please reach out to start counseling today. I would love to come alongside you and help you to get to your "best life" ahead.
