The client will feel the unconditional support and empathy from me, the therapist.

Hello! I often tell people that when choosing a new therapist, pick one that has had lots of therapy themself. I have! It's important to be aware of one's own issues in order to be effective in helping others, and to know what it's like to be in 'the other chair'. Through my own work I have also become aware of many pertinent resources that I enjoy sharing with my clients: books, groups, techniques, movies, and other providers that may be of help. I am very knowledgeable of addiction, trauma, sleep issues, relationship struggles, depression, and anxiety. My relationship with each client is different; some are playful and humorous, others very serious. I am good at both!

Hello! I am so glad you are here and look forward to getting to know you and your goals for therapy. I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years of clinical experience. My interpersonal style is warm, empathetic, and professional. I am highly interested and engaged with the process of understanding and helping. Below is a bit about my background: Therapy Approach: My clinical and interpersonal style is warm, casual, empathetic, and always professional. My overarching approach tends to transcend theory and embrace the foundational skills of active listening, gentle redirecting, validation, and staying connected while confronting issues that need attention. I tend to think holistically and spiritually. Theoretical applications I use include Person-Centered and Psychodynamic, as each client is multi- layered and more than one theory or technique may be useful. Primarily my theoretical lens is Existential, grounded in the idea that we as human beings are faced with making meaning of our environment, understanding ourselves, and the realization that we can direct our lives. There is challenge in this but also great freedom. Technical Options: I am potentially a good match for those who are interested in Live Chat Typing Sessions or Phone Sessions. When I discovered that Video sessions were causing some eye strain and switched to Live Chat Typing Sessions and Phone Sessions I was pleasantly surprised that the richness and texture of therapy was not reduced. In some ways there is even more connection and clarity. Areas of Clinical Specialty include but aren't limited to the following: Grief/Bereavement Pregnancy Loss/Infant Loss Anxiety Social Anxiety Depression Spiritual Issues Life Transitions Career and Professional Concerns Transgender/ LGBTQ ally Trauma History Chronic Illness Relationship issues Sexuality issues Pregnancy and child rearing Parenting Issues It is often in high pitched pain or struggle that one finds her/his/theirself seeking therapy. I am sensitive to this process and strive always to create a comfortable, relaxed therapeutic space. My experience includes providing therapy to those with trauma histories at a partial hospitalization program, counseling college students with issues of identity, sexuality, and life transitions at a university counseling center, and several years providing therapy to those with anxiety/depression, grief/bereavement, and other issues of clinical concern at an outpatient mental health clinic. I consider it a privilege to help clients from all backgrounds from their place of difficulty to a healthy realization of their goals.
