I currently live in Texas and am licensed in Texas and Wisconsin. I enjoy a great variety of interests so it may be easiest to say I have a great appreciation for most things. Many people would describe me as having a great sense of humor and I do enjoy laughing and love hearing the laughter of others; In the very moment we laugh, for that brief instant, we forget all of our problems and find joy. It may be difficult to remain there, but if we can find if for one moment, we can find it each day. I specialize in client-focused therapy, existential psychotherapy, and mindfulness to help you find your way and explore what is meaningful to you. Website: https://begoodtomyself.com

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first appointment I will work with you by listening to your concerns, getting to know who you are as a person, and work to discover what your own goals are. My work is to listen, support, guide you and provide educated feedback on how we can develop a clear plan to help you heal and achieve your goals.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Treatment is best suited for trauma, complicated grief, anxiety, addictions, phobias, and many other struggles where we simply need to sit with someone and figure out what is going on. I find the most important strength I have is to simply be present with you.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Existential therapy is grounded in techniques that assist the client in finding meaning in life, particularly after experiencing loss, being impacted by addiction, a struggle with eating disorders, disabling anxiety and traumas of all forms (from being bullied at a young age and the impact on self confidence or in social settings, living through poverty, witness to or being involved in domestic violence, sexual trauma, military trauma, loss of a home or job, miscarriage, divorce, accidents, etc.). I do not look for a particular client population; I best serve clients who are okay without me giving advice but are seeking a professional who will listen, provide feedback, and be present as you discover your truest self as if life had not taken you down paths of uncertainty. Living a purposeful life is a beautiful place where peace is not a place you go or a person you interact with but knowing you are capable of overcoming whatever challenges life may bring you. Yes, it is a process to get there but the journey is certainly worth it.
