I promise to be genuine and offer sincere compassion and empathy, along with sharing insight and feedback into the ways in which your personal thoughts, perceptions, or behavioral approaches/responses may be contributing to your emotional difficulties. It's important to "keep it real" by balancing our challenging, sometimes painful work together, with moments of smiles and light-heartedness. Every session cannot be intense and serious. You need to know that we will acknowledge and "celebrate" moments of individual progress or success measured on your personal scale. I promise to be there for you every step of your healing and strengthening journey. My goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.
My Therapy Services
Anxiety & Depression
Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Oftentimes, they lead to physical discomfort, pain and fatigue. Mood instability frequently affects multiple spheres of life and interferes with daily functioning with family, friends, and/or in the work environment. Through counseling and treatment, I am able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life.
Relationships
Relationship counseling can be beneficial to couples who are looking to strengthen their emotional connection, in all stages of their relationship, or to get help as they face a divorce. Therapy sessions are held with both couples, or individually as indicated, and is a supportive place to discuss issues and solutions to better strengthen your relationship, resolve conflicts, and increase your level of mutual respect or cooperation.
Trauma & PTSD
Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. My emotional support dog, Colby, and I can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing. Trauma services provided to adults, adolescents, and children. So sweet, goofy, and attentive, Colby, my English Cocker Spaniel/Black Lab mix, will be nearby to offer comfort, silent support, and a touch of playfulness. He is especially helpful with young children and teens who are struggling with emotional issues.

Therapy for Children with Physical Disabilities and their Families
Children and adolescents with physical limitations experience emotional distress and behavior challenges in learning to overcome, accept, and/or master various obstacles in daily life.
