Talking about sex and problematic sexual behaviors is often stigmatized by society, family or culture. My main goal is provide a safe place where one can openly discuss sexual concerns and we can work together to determine if they are problematic or to discuss the impact of another's sexual behaviors on you. Too often, it is assumed that therapy around sexual addiction or sexuality is about stopping one's sexual behavior. Here, we work to define your sexuality as an individual. Work may include trauma focused work in order to gain access to underlying concerns, or it may involve sex education to best claim your sexuality. Working with loved ones of sex addicts, including parents, often includes shame reduction and healthy boundary work. Whatever the work is, you are part of the treatment team and the most important part of guiding therapy.

People encounter challenges in life. When the challenges become overwhelming and the ability to resolve them independently seems unattainable, therapy can help. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work collaboratively with clients to identify concerning issues, create goals, process emotional pain and overcome difficulties in life. The work is designed to empower people to engage life in a more positive and productive way. With over 20 years of counseling experience, I help those whose lives have been impacted by Addictions, Eating Disorders, Depressive Disorders, Bipolar Disorders, Anxiety Disorders and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders. I maintain a practice designed to help people navigate a wide variety of mental health disorders, emotional difficulties, and transitional life events.

My training as a mental health professional has taught me to be highly attuned to individuals' needs, with a strong desire to help my clients overcome life's difficulties. I know asking for help can be challenging, but I aim to build and maintain positive and effective therapeutic relationships built around the confidence and trust of my clients. In over a decade of experience, I have used a variety of approaches to meet my clients needs. I originally relied on cognitive-behavioral therapy, but I now use an eclectic approach, embracing psychoanalytic and existential approaches. I am also a licensed behavior specialist. I work with autism-spectrum clients to implement behavior programs that strengthen their skills and abilities. While in Europe, I gained expertise in progressive body relaxation.

Are you suffering from depression and anxiety or dealing with trauma, grief, or relationship issues? Do you have a sense of emotional overwhelm that leaves you feeling empty and exhausted? Are you dealing with chronic health issues of your own or a loved one? Have the stresses of your life disconnected you from the joy you were once able to feel? The stresses of human existence can become too much to handle on your own. It is in these times that you need the support of a professional. I am a Licensed Psychotherapist, Registered Yoga Teacher, and Ayurveda Lifestyle Counselor. My unique blend of healing modalities called Holistic Integrated Psychotherapy brings a rich tapestry of knowledge to the therapeutic relationship. Merging traditional psychotherapy with yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and Ayurveda practices allows for a deeper level of healing for the mind, body, emotions, and spirit that one will not attain with traditional psychotherapy practices alone. These modalities are not just practices but ways of understanding how we as human beings relate to ourselves and each other. One does not need any experience with yoga to benefit from this mind/body/spirit approach, all you need is to be open to the connection between this trilogy. Holistic Integrated Psychotherapy will guide you to heart based healing. Begin your journey today. Contact me for a free telephone consult.

Dealing with persistent relational stress? Do you struggle with poor communication patterns? Are you suffering with unmet needs? Do you make others a priority over your own needs and desires? Do you wonder how your life could be better somehow? Happier? More connected with your partner? Many people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and discouraged in their personal lives. They are uncertain about how to deal with their relationships, careers and issues in their lives. Pushing away what you need and want to make others happy isn't the answer and can lead to long term problems for your mind, body and spirit. Reducing relational distress becomes more managable when you know the right tools for healthy communication. We start counseling exactly where you are at and deal with what issues you would like to bring into our sessions. You will find that working with me through various counseling methods will provide you a better and more productive way to handle negative communication patterns that are overwhelming you. I can help you understand what is keeping you stuck and help you get "unstuck". Together we can discover the best path to help you reach your goals and if I can't help you, I'll find someone who can. I work with clients who are open, ready, willing and motivated to deal with issues that are keeping them stuck. As we work together collaboratively, you will learn healthier ways to communicate and deescalate negative cycles that you are stuck in. . My clients appreciate the safe, comfortable environment that is created as you learn new skills. You will improve emotional connection, learn to reconnect after a rupture and repair your relationship.
