It is my sacred honor to help people with their deepest and most personal issues: their ancient wounds, in their lives within and without; their deepest hopes and fears, dreams and longings, and the blocks that interfere with creating their lives and finding and birthing their Selves. It saddens me deeply to see our world being offered "quick fixes," "bandaids," and "get over it" or "transcend it" philosophies for dealing with life's deepest wounds and traumas. It saddens me to see people being offered symptom "management" instead of real healing -- managing thoughts, feelings, and more -- leaving the real wound beneath the symptom, beneath the surface to continue to haunt them in their lives. It saddens me to see our world encouraging people to repeat as adults what they did as children - repress their feelings and find defenses to keep them away. For children, this is sanity- and life-saving. For adults, this is society degrading feeling and keeping us emotionally stuck, emotionally unmatured. For adults, this is society working against our healing, our growing, our transforming, our becoming all we can be. It saddens me to see us go 'round and 'round the vicious cycle of cause and effect when we leave our own individual wounds unhealed -- deeply affecting the state of our world and our country -- and then when the state of our world and country, in turn, triggers those same unhealed wounds within us. I bring to clients a message of lasting healing, healing to the root. I help people find and claim their own wounds, commit themselves to the real work of healing inside and out, work at their organic rhythm and pace to build their capacity to feel, and more. I also help people recognize the link between their individual healing and the healing of our planet. With a passion for safety and for healing to the root, I am committed to helping heal and transform our world one-by-one and on a global scale.

Do people tell you that you worry too much? Are you struggling with a difficult relationship? Do you have mornings when you just don't want to get out of bed? Or do you spend so much time caring for others that it feels impossible to find the time to take care of yourself? No matter what challenge you are facing, you are welcome here.

As clinical psychologists, we understand that your life can be complex. There are various demands and expectations at different life stages that can be impacted by situational and mental health struggles. It's important to be mindful of the interaction between those demands and your stage of life. For example, you may be an adult feeling overwhelmed with anxiety worrying about aging parents while managing your spouse and children's needs. Your needs in this scenario would be different than an anxious adolescent trying to cope with school, friendship, and family demands. We recognize and respect that people have individual needs throughout the lifespan and we want to work closely and collaboratively with you to ensure that you reach your goals to a richer and more satisfying life.

I am specially trained to assist those who struggle with anxiety, trauma, and relationship problems. I use evidence-based treatments that have been proven to help people with your exact problem. Specifically, I practice cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and family systems therapy. I tailor these research-driven therapies to meet your specific needs and achieve your goals. If you’re ready to make a change in your life, learn new skills, and understand yourself on a deeper level, give me a call or send me an email. I offer free 15-minute phone consultations to get to know you, your struggles, and your goals for the future. I look forward to being on your team!

If you’re navigating anxiety, depression, or life’s transitions, stress can quickly become overwhelming.

My approach is warm, holistic, and tailored to you—integrating CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based methods to look beyond symptoms and focus on how your mind, body, and daily habits interact. We'll build practical strategies using your natural strengths so you can handle life with more ease. I’m here to help you take that next step. Call for a FREE 15 minute consultation today!

My name is Jewels and my specialty is working with individuals who grew up within family conflict, a difficult relationship with a parent, or a childhood that did not feel safe. I have trained in attachment trauma (when we don't grow up with consistent, nurturing caregivers) and the impact it has on our brain, body, behavior, and relationships. Growing up this way can feel like climbing a mountain without a map. We become skilled at navigating rocky terrain, reading the weather, bracing for storms, learning the safest path to take, and how to survive on our own. Our nervous system can feel these effects long after childhood is over. I offer education on the impact of trauma, mindfulness, tools for anxiety, productive communication techniques, ways to set healthy boundaries, and much more. For deeper work, I offer Internal Family Systems (exploring and getting to know different inner parts of yourself), and inner child work. We move at your own pace, focusing on what feels right for you. I am a nurturing therapist and offer a safe space where your inner child can begin to heal. You deserve to have a voice and your voice is important. Your feelings matter and you are not alone. “Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right” -Robert Hunter
