Is your worrying, depression, or anger taking over your life? Is the loss of a loved one too painful to cope? Are you trying to find a solution to a damaged marriage or relationship?

My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you feel better—not just in our sessions, but in your daily life. I use evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify unhelpful patterns, build coping skills, and gain clarity around your thoughts and emotions. I’ve spent over a decade supporting individuals and families through grief and loss in hospice care, worked in schools with children and teens, and now offer individual therapy in private practice. No matter where you are in your journey, my goal is to give you the tools and insight you need so that therapy becomes something you don’t need long-term. This is your space to feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with confidence.

I am a licensed therapist who is passionate about helping clients navigate burnout. I am passionate because I have been there and was tired of getting unhelpful answers from people who meant well but did not seem to understand. Advice like ‘sleep it off’ and ‘take a deep breath’ we're common and it felt like I was putting a bandaid on a gaping wound. I promise, life does not need to be a constant cycle of burning out and starting again. Through our work together we will explore ways to ‘stitch’ the gaping wound so you are actually able to heal and move towards a more balanced life. Through our work together I will use imagery and analogies to help you better understand how and why your body and mind is reacting the way it is. Like a birds eye view, I am able to see some of the signs that are right in front of you but are too zoomed in to see clearly. In a non-judgmental space I use education and a bit of humor to help you see the full picture and move towards a healthier balance.

Are you experiencing challenges that are interfering with your emotional health and wellbeing? Do you feel your past experiences are affecting your ability to reach your full potential? Do you need a safe space to process your thoughts and feelings and engage in self exploration? I am a licensed psychotherapist who believes the most important catalyst for change is the relationship between therapist and client. My goal is to partner with you to reach your desired goals in a therapeutic environment. We will take the necessary steps together to foster positive change while creating individual strategies for self-empowerment. I have been trained in EMDR therapy which is a theory based on the belief that our brains have a natural system for processing information and experiences so that we can keep what we need for wisdom, learning, and growth. Sometimes disturbing experiences overwhelm the processing system, or we don't have the information we need for our brains to make sense of what happened in a healthy way. EMDR uses eye movements and other right-left stimulation to activate your brain's processing system so you can successfully process the experience and let go of what's not useful to you. I believe our past effects our present and future- both in adaptative and maladaptive ways. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to inner peace, self-love, and fulfillment.

Are you feeling stuck—trapped in cycles of self-blame or convinced that bad luck defines your life? Do your relationships feel disconnected or fall short of the depth and quality you truly desire? As a specialist in EMDR therapy, I help individuals heal from the root causes of emotional pain, including depression, anxiety, addiction, and complex PTSD. EMDR can shift the narrative you've been living, helping you build empowered self-esteem and develop more adaptive, resilient thought patterns—replacing racing, draining thoughts with clarity and calm. Through grounding and coping skills, you’ll gain the authentic pause needed to reclaim your life. It’s time to bloom. You deserve to thrive.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in practice for over 15 years, I have worked with clients that have extensive levels of concerns including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, social and interpersonal relationship challenges not to exclude family discord. I have been adaptable to working in many different settings. I believe the approach of meeting my client where they are is a grounding principle for my therapeutic style. Although not always in person, the distance will never be seen as a distraction. I obtained my master’s degree from Florida State University, but faced many challenges with that. Some struggles in life peak during adolescence and I was no stranger to that. Transitions were not my friend, I had to overcome many relational, financial, and educational difficulties that grew me to understanding personal struggles. I believe in a client-centered approach as all clients are the experts on what works best for them and the challenges that they continue to face. I strive to provide an environment that is non-judgmental and accepting of where you are in your process while helping you get to where you want to be. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in exploring relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to aid in discovering dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive behaviors and beliefs. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) which is a modality that assist in how trauma is seen and processed. I have worked the better part of my career assisting in trauma processing, clients have been sexually abused, physically abused, or have suffered from significant loss. I believe counseling is a journey towards healing. If you are willing to allow me on this journey with you to master any conflict in your life, I am ready when you are!

Living with Anxiety, Depression, Panic or OCD can feel overwhelming. It can make tasks at work feel like it’s all too much to handle. In our personal lives, it can make us feel disconnected from the people we love as well as the activities we used to derive happiness from. Even though we develop ways to cope and talking with friends and family can help, these feelings never really fully go away. Thankfully, a structured approach to therapy can help. It is possible to feel comfortable or even excited to interact with people, enjoy your work each day and find meaning! As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of counseling experience, I place an emphasis on establishing therapeutic goals, developing a plan and highlighting the progress clients make towards personal change. I also understand the importance of establishing a genuine therapeutic connection based on compassion and empathy with each person I work with. In my experience, this serves as the foundation for meaningful progress in therapy. My primary approaches to counseling include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered and Solution Focused Therapy.

As a therapist, I specialize in providing support to individuals dealing with a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, or that overwhelming feeling of being "stuck". I assist individuals in navigating various life adjustments, such as transitioning to college, coping with breakups, or trying a sober lifestyle with the aim of promoting their overall well-being and resilience. ⚽️🥎🏈🥍Now seeing college athletes⚾️🏐🏒🏀 I am currently in a doctorate program, focusing my research on best mental health practices for college athletes. Through personalized therapy sessions, I help athletes develop resilience, enhance their mental well-being, and foster a positive mindset. By incorporating evidence-based techniques and sport psychology principles, I empower athletes to navigate the pressures of academics and competition and cultivate a healthy relationship with their sport. I approach my work with empathy, creativity, and a non-judgmental attitude, recognizing that each client is the expert on their journey of self-discovery.

Hello, I am Jayne, Have you experienced something frightening happen to you that even when you try hard, you still think about it? Does it keep you up at night? Does it make it hard to concentrate? Are you feeling overwhelmed with anxiety and/or depression? Sometimes when frightening things happen we have a hard time letting go. This is where therapy can help. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can happen to all of us. It can happen from something we experience or what is called secondary trauma, from witnessing something that happening to someone else. I would be honored to help you as you move through time in your life to empower you to be the best version of you!
