Find a Therapist in United States

Therapy can be a place to step away from the expectations and pressures that have shaped your life and make room for what you genuinely need. I work with adults who may look like they are doing well on the outside while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, stuck, or unsure of what comes next. Together, we can explore what you are experiencing now as well as the patterns, relationships, and expectations that may be contributing to it. My practice is intentionally small so that I can be fully present and thoughtful in my work with each client. I aim to create a space where you can explore your experiences openly, better understand yourself, and find ways forward that feel meaningful and sustainable.  

Therapy, at its best, is a space where you can slow down, turn inward, and begin to understand yourself more fully. My role is to walk alongside you in that process — with honesty, care, and deep respect for your experience. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach draws from CBT, ACT, trauma-focused therapy, and existential therapy, always tailored to what feels most useful for you. But more than any particular method, I believe healing happens through genuine connection — when you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we'll explore the patterns, emotions, and beliefs that shape how you move through the world. We'll build practical tools where you need them, and make space for the deeper questions when those matter more. My hope is that our work helps you relate to yourself with greater compassion, and to your life with greater clarity and intention.  

Listen to your body, follow your heart! When our hearts are wounded through trauma, neglect and deprivation, we lose touch with the heart's power. Depression, anxiety, fear of intimacy, addiction, stuckness may follow. Working through emotional issues at a body level allows for deep, lasting healing  

My approach to healing is client-centered through an attachment-based perspective to help clients attain inner calm and a sense of control. I offer supportive counseling with a keen eye for pinpointing your self-defeating patterns, strengths and solutions. What's unique about my approach is my emphasis on in-between session support and activity that empowers individuals to implement what they learn in sessions in practical ways that address their real life stuck points and triggers. The aim is that you grow in resiliency and confidence to attain welcomed changes in your life. You are wired for healing and connection, and my job is to help you experience this. Key characteristics of my style include being genuine and direct with an emphasis on helping clients find purpose and emotional stability.  

I offer a warm, personable approach to therapy, grounded in solid clinical knowledge and experience. My priority is to create a space where you feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely supported throughout your healing process. I have experience working with individuals from childhood through older adulthood, and I commonly support clients navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and other emotional challenges. My goal is to walk with you at your pace, helping you feel understood, empowered, and cared for along the way.  

We are a Christian private practice focused on the integration of clinical excellence with Christ-centered truth. We help clients uncover the root of shame-based beliefs shaped by childhood wounds, trauma, and attachment patterns—and gently replace them with truth grounded in both psychological insight and Biblical identity. Our approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and relational, creating a safe space where emotional healing and spiritual growth can happen together. Clients often share that they feel deeply seen, understood, and equipped with practical tools to experience lasting transformation in themselves and their relationships. If you are ready to begin your healing—spiritually, emotionally, and relationally—

Recent events, and especially the pandemic, have shown how essential mental health is for all of us. I believe strongly in access to care, which is why using both telehealth and insurance are important. I'm also dedicated to evidence-based approaches that are specifically focused on each person or couple. There's no 'one size fits all' in terms of what approach we use, as long as you can see it being helpful to you and relevant to what you need. Please see below for more information about how I can help. And if you'd like a consultation, please reach out.  

My private practice has been established for over 30 years and focuses on the unique needs of every adult, child and family that I see.

Greetings. Do you have workplace or life stress related issues? Let's work on them together. My experience in the business world, along with counseling, has given me many opportunities to work with people on their problems. We will work on mindful techniques that will help you manage your stress, and explore your values for meaning and purpose. I look forward to meeting you.  

As an experienced therapist, I have treated many different, and sometimes difficult, problems faced by individuals, couples and families. A careful assessment is made and together we develop a treatment plan that combines direction, compassion, and a belief in our ability to make positive changes.  

Get your life back! If you have been traumatized or experienced an upsetting event, I will help you work through it with sensitivity and compassion. My practice focuses on helping you restore peace and integrate your experiences so you can have resolution and move forward in your life with confidence. If your child has been traumatized, I can work with you to help your child, because you are the most important person in your child's life. When you work with me, you can expect to become more connected with yourself and more connected with your children and others you love.  

If you have been carrying a lot on your own, therapy can be a place to slow things down, get clear about what is happening, and start moving forward in a way that feels real and meaningful. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience, and my work has included clinical practice, teaching, and published scholarship on trauma, grief, and life transitions. I bring that depth into sessions in a practical, down-to-earth way, blending evidence-based tools with thoughtful work around meaning, patterns, and direction. If you are facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, or a major life change and want support that is skilled and personal, I would be glad to connect.  

Stay rooted deeply in the present moment, allowing your intuition, knowing, and being-ness to shine! These 1.5 hr. Expressive Arts Therapy sessions offer an eclectic approach to therapy. I have created a dynamic toolbox that can meet anyone where they are regardless of what topic you would like to explore. Combining mindfulness, talk therapy, somatic awareness, and creative approaches every session is unique depending on what is most nourishing for you on that specific day.  

My approach is to meet you where you are with empathy and caring. To support you in life regardless of what you have been through. Regardless of if you hate yourself or love yourself or how stuck you feel. I hope to support you to reach your goals, and if I can't, to help you find someone who can. This space is for you. What do you want to do? Who do you want to become? Whether all hope is lost or you just can't figure something out. Whether you have been diagnosed with a disorder, you just don't feel happy where you are, or you want to learn how to be healthier. My approach helps you become more of who you are and be whole again.  

Psychotherapy (or counseling) is talking with a trained professional about your fears, concerns, behaviors, desires and dreams. My goal is to help you better understand yourself. You may seek treatment with me because you have been given a specific mental health diagnosis. Or you may seek treatment because you would like help dealing with a specific challenge such as job dissatisfaction or difficulty finding a partner. During a psychotherapy session, you will learn more about your behaviors, your thoughts and your feelings. Psychotherapy allows you to understand and take control of your life through new knowledge and coping skills.

By working with us, you will gain skills to support yourself outside of the therapy hour and feel more empowered to tackle life's challenges. As the owner of Mind Body Connections, I will personally do your intake within less than 48 hours and place you with the clinician that will best meet your needs.  

There is no shame in any feeling or thought. You are not your diagnosis. When you learn that it's OK to express deep emotions and thoughts, you get yourself back. Make your own realizations, which empowers you. Non-judgmental: embracing all lifestyles, beliefs, faiths, and sexual orientations.
