About My Clients
I really enjoy helping adolescents continue to grow into amazing adults, regardless of what their eyes and ears have seen. Watching adolescents discover joy in their narrative is a gift I am spoiled to receive. I also really enjoy helping young adults chase down their purpose and heal from whatever past may have confused their present. Couples who have whethered storms of relationship pain will always have a spot on my couch, as well as the mom who is waist deep in motherhood swamplands.
My Background and Approach
I tend to use a combination of styles - but mostly I just want to help people - I am less concerned with labeling your situation and more concerned with getting to know you and introducing hope that will guide you through your circumstance. This looks like a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and EMDR. Basically all of this is a fancy way of saying we can talk it out, walk it out, identify pain, identify hope, and process in a variety of goal-focused ways that serve you best. After crisis counseling in high school and middle schools, serving & leading groups of teens in a variety of ways for 8 years, and working with all ages and diagnoses in psychiatric inpatient settings, I eagerly await learning and hearing people's stories, and identifying the strength & beauty in the complexity of the human existence.
