My Ideal Client

Does life feel like a Merry-Go-Round? Spinning around and around with no way off. I help people build the life and relationships they desire! I work with Individuals, Couples, and Families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, marital unrest, or infidelity. Courage, trust, and strength are the pillars we all possess but rarely see in ourselves. It takes courage to embrace hopes and fears. Trust to explore hidden passions and find forgotten dreams. S

My Approach to Helping

My approach is based on 3 C's: compassion, collaboration, and creativity. Individualized treatment is provided based on each person or couples' need. Interventions include recognizing unhealthy thinking patterns, reframing self-limiting talk, developing behavioral and emotional coping cards, utilizing principles of mindfulness and guided imagery exercises to reduce anxious feelings. Empowering my clients to see new opportunities or directions is the goal in every session.

Why I Became a Therapist

I became interested in human behavior after taking several psychology courses my senior year of high school. My undergraduate and graduate degrees focused on organizational development and marketing, which allowed me to explore behavior from a holistic and analytical perspective. My business career spans 23 years and encompasses relationship, marketing, and project management. I have worked in the Banking, E-commerce and Advertising industries. I have seen the impact of mergers and layoffs. Watched couples’ struggle balancing careers, family, and relationships.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Women's Issues External link

    Women today face many difficult choices and must deal with numerous life challenges., which can cause emotional conflicts. One such conflict, for professional women is choosing between a promotion or marriage. Other conflicts revolve around childhood trauma or intimate partner violence. I build a caring and compassionate alliance to help you confront deep wounds and plot a new course.

  • Abuse External link

    An opportunity to develop a professional identity. Whether you are just beginning or changing careers, figuring out which career is right for you can be difficult. I utilize various card sorts and skill/interest assessments to assist individuals in finding their passion not a job.

  • Relationship / Marriage Issues External link

    Creating a couple's identity without losing your own identity is tough. Each partner has their own communication style, interests, and dreams. I work with couples with communication concerns, affair recovery, co-parenting issues, and balancing career with family life.

  • Anxiety External link

    Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, confusing, or challenging. When you find your mind is racing, your palms are sweating, and your stomach hurts, its difficult to make sound decisions. I use guided imagery and mindfulness techniques to calm the internal system and allow you to time to think through your unique situation.
