If you are like many people in our country today, you have experienced depression, anxiety, grief, loss, life changes,
economic hardship, relationship and family stressors. You may feel that these challenges are overwhelming and that
you don't feel you have the support to overcome them alone.  I'm here to help you face these stressors and
develop new skills to cope and to achieve the dreams you believe in.  I believe that everyone has within them the
courage and strength to reach their highest potential and that I can help you tap into that inner wealth of resources.

I respect and honor all spiritual beliefs. I offer Christ Centered Counseling for Christians who know how powerful it
is to bring God on their counseling journey through prayer.

I am a licensed "Kids in the Middle" and offer weekly groups to support kids going through divorce. I also provide
Anger Management Training for clients in either individual or ongoing group sessions.

Life can present serious struggles to all of us. During those times, the assistance of a trained counselor provides
effective support to sort through your options, and to make choices true to your life goals and values. If you are at a
crossroads or feel bogged down by past decisions, counseling offers you a time and place to re-assess and prepare
for the next stage of your journey.  

Prior to clinical work, I was an academic advisor for non-traditional students at Washington University for 15 years.
 I enjoy working with children ages 6 and over, teens, and adults. I have experience assisting people with
depression and anxiety issues, communication issues, the complications of living with ADHD, parenting, play
therapy, and life coaching. I have extensive training in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, and am a licensed provider
of "Kids in the Middle" group therapy. I also participate in a therapists' self study group on counseling youth and
their families who are addressing sexual identity issues.

It has been said that we are but the sum of our choices and experiences.  Sometimes we inadvertently make choices
that inhibit personal growth and well-being and we don't know why.  Sometimes confusing or harmful events occur
in our lives and the experience alters us in ways that keep us in cycles of internal deconstruction rather than creative
construction. Counseling can provide a safe, confidential, and creative space to work through these experiences in
order to facilitate positive changes in our lives.
 

My approach to therapy is always person-centered with a psychodynamic approach, and I truly enjoy helping
clients grow to their full potential.  I enlist a variety of counseling techniques tailored to each client's needs, which
may include art therapy, directed play therapy, narrative art therapy, sand tray therapy, iconography, or traditional
talk therapy.  Just as an Archaeologist will excavate a site to unearth its treasures, I join my clients in their efforts to
"excavate" themselves. Together we walk the courageous, exciting, and sometimes frightening path of self-discovery
and restoration as I assist in uncovering the authentic and treasured self.
