Mental Health Services

Mental illness is a normal response to an abnormal circumstance. Life is full of circumstances that create unhealthy behaviors and thought patterns. I help clients explore and uncover the root problems that are interfering with their mental health. I use a combination of Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to replace unhealthy thought patterns and behavior patterns. 

I work with couples and families to help build healthy communication skills, a deeper level of connection, and build a healthy foundation within the relationship. I use the Gottman Method to teach couples skills that are supported by decades of research. 

I specialize in working with children and teenagers who struggle with social anxiety, anger problems, ADHD, low self-esteem, abuse, self-harm, and identity issues. I also specialize in kids and teens who are considered gifted or highly intelligent. These children often struggle with behavioral and mental health struggles that are unique.

Life coaching is an opportunity to move beyond healing and begin thriving in all areas of life through increasing emotional intelligence, goal setting, identity development, self-esteem building, and working through resolving issues that may be creating self-sabotage and limiting success in all areas of life.  

Trauma is defined as anything that overwhelms an individual's ability to cope. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger after traumatic events. I can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.
