Find a Therapist in United States

I am a calm, compassionate therapist. Over the past 12 years I have developed an understanding that being a therapist means much more than providing clients with the newest therapeutic approach. Therapy is the art of combining the intricate knowledge of a mental health diagnosis with the ability to guide clients toward a better understanding of themselves and their relationships. As a therapist my goal is to encourage clients to let go of what isn't working and adopt new skills that can improve the clients overall quality of life.  

With many years of experience, I bring an eclectic, interactive approach to therapy. We each see the world through our unique lens, as well as how we see ourselves in relationships; all influenced by the larger systems we are part of. These different perspectives are honored. My style is to create a relaxed atmosphere , and our work is guided by our conversation. I listen for underlying patterns of behavior. This shapes my perceptions as to what interventions will be most beneficial. .  

Journeys offers a strength-based, solution focused program that empowers our clients to become the engine of their recovery. If alcohol, drug use, or any other addictive behaviors are affecting your or a loved one's health, happiness or well-being, we welcome you to begin your journey. Our clinical team includes licensed and certified therapists with CASAC designation, a Medical Director/Psychiatrist, and student interns, all of whom bring a compassionate and humanistic approach to treatment. Clients may receive individual, group, or family counseling utilizing a variety of modalities such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness training, and 12-step supports. We also offer support groups for parents, siblings, and any loved ones or family members affected by addiction. While treatment can be hard work, we believe our clients can meet their goals and remain on the path of healing, growth, and lifelong recovery.  

At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we believe that healing requires entering a space where you feel truly seen, understood, and respected. We honor your presence and we meet you exactly where you are.  

Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming. At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands. We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace. Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again. What we offer: • Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now • Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.) • Sliding-scale rates for affordable care • In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.  

Do you worry, overthink, feel anxious, have panic attacks, PTSD, or avoid certain situations because of anxiety/trauma? Your thoughts may be racing, spiraling, or making you feel like you’re experiencing painful situations all over again. You may be left feeling overwhelmed, terrified, out of control, and not knowing how to cope. You may avoid people, isolate yourself, find it hard to trust or connect with others, worry about others judging you, or become stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. At times, it can feel hard to function.  

I love working with people who desire to live from their hearts. I'm passionate about self- forgiveness (letting go of meaning) and correcting the myths of forgiveness that we have been taught. People who desire to see the unconditional love in themselves and others and let go of meaning they make in their minds that blocks them from being their happiest, most peaceful, authentic selves. If you have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges that seem to hold you back in life, and want a way to let these thoughts go and live in the present moment, I'm likely a great fit for you. Clients describe me as calm, compassionate, intuitive and out of the box.  

Each of our providers has specialized training and experience in their areas of expertise. We provide a personalized treatment experience by using research backed interventions while also individualizing your treatment plan for your specific needs. Many of our providers are university faculty, leaders in the field of their specializations, train others in the treatments we provide, and bring that wealth of knowledge and experience to provide you with expert level treatment.  

I've been a therapist for over 30 years and bring warmth, curiosity, intuition, and an open mind to my work. I can also be direct when I think it will be helpful. I especially enjoy working with thoughtful, self-aware people who are looking for real change—not just insight into what's happening, but new ways of experiencing themselves, their relationships, and their lives. I see therapy as a collaborative process, and I bring both my experience and genuine curiosity to each person I work with. If you're wondering whether we might be a good fit, I invite you to contact me for a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation. It's a chance to tell me a little about what you're looking for, ask questions, and get a sense of whether working together feels right.

I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.
