Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Are you looking for a therapist you can relate to? One who is down-to-earth and real? You found her! I believe your time and money is more valuable than simply saying "uh-huh" and handing you a bill! My goal is to educate you, encourage you, and give you honest feedback. I think you'll find I'm very personable and it's easy to get a good "feel" for who I am right away! I like to think- I'm not your "typical therapist"- but maybe I'm the right one for you.

I work with many types of clients, but have extra experience with: overcoming a painful past, depression, anxiety, dissociation, trauma, relationships, adolescent girls, couples (both married and not) and whole families- the bigger the better!

I stand ready to partner with you as you take this next step toward a happier and healthier life. Questions not only allowed- but encouraged! Check my website out today, and let's get started!
