THE ONLY WAY OUT IS THROUGH. LET’S GET STARTED!

My Services

Life is hard. Sometimes emotional pain can make us forget our true purpose for living and cloud the joy and beauty in life. Unfortunately, the only way to heal emotional pain is to go through it, which can be an uncomfortable, scary experience. No matter what your struggle is, I am here to help empower you to move through this difficult time. It is one of my greatest passions to help others work through painful emotions and unwanted experiences and begin to truly live again.

Therapy

I offer individual, family, and couples counseling sessions that last between 45 and 60 minutes. My style is warm and, at times, playful, yet direct. In my office, you are free to share anything without fear of judgment, as I work from a model of unconditional positive regard. My primary treatment modality is acceptance and commitment therapy. In order to address the mind/body connection, sessions will likely include mindfulness training, meditation, and breathwork, in addition to talk therapy and skills training.

Groups, Workshops, & Retreats

Groups, workshops, and retreats focus on various topics (motherhood support, women’s empowerment, anxiety, mindfulness/meditation/movement, body image, professional development) and are offered as needed throughout the year. The following are currently running at the Lemon Tree Wellness Collective Embodiment Studio. Space is limited so reach out to reserve your spot. Insurance is not billed for most of these groups/retreats. Inquire about prices. Check out the Studio website for additional offerings by members in our local community below.

Testing

In addition to therapy, I also offer psychological evaluations and ADHD testing. These sessions last anywhere from 60 minutes to several hours and consist of a clinical comprehensive assessment and standardized testing measures. After our session, I will review the information, score any tests given, interpret the results, and combine all information into a formal report which may then be shared with any referral source (school, physician, judge, etc) as needed.

**I currently have limited availability for testing and am only offering ADHD testing at this time.

Professional Development & Case Consultation

With 15 years of experience, I have worked in numerous capacities of mental health, including community mental health agencies, substance abuse treatment facilities, eating disordered treatment centers, the judicial system, housing systems, and in private practice. This broad range has given me expertise in working with most cases and has also built a solid understanding of what it takes to run a successful business. If you are a fellow professional or entrepreneur seeking guidance in starting your own practice/business, are trying to make sense of a complicated client case, need assistance developing a procedure for managing your staff/employees, or are interested in a mental health training for your agency, please contact me for rates.

Giving Back

Because I went into this field for the love of helping others, I offer two pro bono therapy slots at all times. If finances are an issue, don’t hesitate to ask if these slots are available.

The Empowered MAMA Group

Monthly Support Group for Moms

This group will be open for any issues brought up by participants. Nothing is off limits. On top of supporting one another, we will explore playing the role of the receiver through meditation and yoga flows (don’t worry, think of it more as lovely, mindful stretching and nourishing of our bodies; NO yoga experience necessary). Groups will also explore the skills necessary to manage the emotionally intense journey that is parenthood, as well as the following: focus on navigating relationships with others, as well as the self, how to communicate assertively to be heard and have your needs met, setting boundaries in relationships in order to stay true to your parenting ideals, finding balance, mindfulness, and self-care/self-compassion.

Who: Female-identifying Mamas of any aged kiddo (though this is a group facilitated by a Psychologist, you DO NOT need to be in individual therapy to participate)

Offerings for Therapists

Case Consultations

Since I was a child, I’ve been drawn to difficult things. I see everything as a puzzle and love helping other professionals make challenging pieces fit.

This service is offered on an individual or group platform and is not considered “supervision” as defined by your licensing board. Rather, this is a time to explore cases in more detail in a more relaxed manner. Sometimes you can feel pressure to “know” things or “perform” when working with your licensed supervisor or someone in your close colleague circle. Consider this puzzle time, free of judgement, and full of my hypotheses for you to implement in the experiment that is therapy.

If you are interested in group consultation, see below for our current offerings. Email or text if you’d prefer information on an individual meeting.

Business Consultations

I struggled so that you don’t have to.

Are you dreaming of going out on your own but unsure about where to begin? In this service, we can explore the ins and outs of starting and growing your private practice. I can help you with all of it, including but not limited to: getting paneled with insurance companies, setting up liability insurance, learning how to bill, getting used to an electronic medical records system, marketing yourself to bring in consistent clients, navigating rates and difficult financial conversations, what you can write off for taxes.
