I believe that YOU are the best expert of you! I've taken my 18 years of experience and created a safe space for mental health therapy. I envision a therapeutic space to empower you to embrace personal transformation and healing through a harmonious connection with nature, fostering autonomy, and initiating long-term, positive change. My commitment lies in providing a safe and supportive space for therapy, free from judgment. I am both a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) & a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) In my spare time I enjoy indulging in creating art and being in the artistic community, spending time with my adult children and our cats, volunteering with Pride and GPS, and in the summertime I raise honeybees and native butterflies for wild release.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. You can schedule a free consultation with me at: https://go.thryv.com/site/oo709m1ek9jsfpw1

Positive Psychology
In my therapy sessions, I incorporate positive psychology theory to help clients focus on their strengths, cultivate a growth mindset, and enhance their overall well-being. By emphasizing positive emotions, meaningful engagement, and personal achievements, I guide clients to build resilience, foster gratitude, and develop a sense of purpose. This approach not only aids in overcoming challenges but also promotes a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In therapy sessions, I use positive Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients focus on their strengths and build resilience. By identifying and reinforcing positive thoughts, behaviors, and emotions, clients learn to challenge and replace negative patterns. This approach not only addresses current issues but also empowers clients to maintain a positive outlook and develop healthy coping mechanisms for the future. Through techniques such as gratitude exercises, strength-based interventions, and positive reframing, we work together to enhance well-being and foster a more fulfilling life.
Compassion Focused
In my therapy sessions, I use Positive Compassion Focused Theory (CFT) to help clients develop self-compassion and reduce self-criticism. By integrating principles of kindness, understanding, and empathy, I guide clients to cultivate a compassionate mindset towards themselves and others. This approach not only fosters emotional resilience but also enhances overall well-being, empowering clients to navigate challenges with greater self-awareness and inner strength.
EMDR
In therapy sessions, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients process traumatic memories. EMDR involves guiding clients through a series of eye movements or other bilateral stimulation while they focus on distressing thoughts or memories. This process helps to reduce the emotional intensity of the memories and allows for healthier cognitive processing, leading to improved mental well-being.
Feminist
In my therapy sessions, I use feminist theory to empower clients by acknowledging and addressing the influence of societal and structural inequalities on their mental health. This approach involves validating their experiences, promoting self-advocacy, and fostering a sense of agency. I strive to create a collaborative and inclusive space where clients feel heard and supported, while also challenging oppressive norms and encouraging critical reflection on gender roles and power dynamics.
On average, Optum clients pay $0-$75
