It can be difficult to take the first step in finding a counselor. Even more difficult can be finding the RIGHT one and feeling comfortable to share what is happening in your life. I am warm and personable, and I will focus on helping you feel a connection from your first visit. I pull from lots of different counseling styles and theories to find the best approach for you.
You may have something specific you want help with, or you may just be seeking a sounding board for important decisions. If you don't see your struggles listed here, please contact me: Anxiety, Depression, Caregiving, Aging, Relationship issues, Career Counseling, Chronic Illness, Divorce, Family Conflict, Grief, Life Transitions, Marital & Premarital Concerns, Parenting, Peer Relationships, Regret, Self Esteem, Spirituality, Stress, and Women's Issues.
My most important tool is a genuine desire to get to know you and your personal situation. I pull from many counseling theories and techniques: Brief Therapy, Coaching, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused, Culturally Sensitive, Dialectical (DBT), Eclectic, Emotionally Focused, Existential, Family/Marital, Family Systems, Interpersonal, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative, Person-Centered, Positive Psychology, Psychodynamic, Reality Therapy, Relational, Solution Focused, and Strength-Based.
I agree that your time is valuable, and I will work with you to make the counseling process more accessible. Our telehealth sessions make counseling more convenient than ever,, saving you drive time. Our confidential online meetings will feel just as warm and productive as if we were meeting in person.
I believe that aging itself is NOT pathological or a one-way ticket to loss and despair. Like any other life stage, our later years bring a particular set of challenges and opportunities, much of which we can handle on our own. When you need someone to listen and to help you find your way, counseling with someone well-versed in geriatric concerns can be a wonderful option. I base my counseling approaches upon a foundation of respect, empathy, and support.
You may be struggling to meet the needs of your aging parents or grandparents while managing a young family of your own. It can be overwhelming to find balance in our busy lives with multiple roles competing for our attention. I can help you be supportive of your family members while taking care of yourself.
