We all have a way of maintaining safety in relationships and making the world "work." However, from time to time, we realize that these strategies may or may not be leading us to the life we've wanted. I greatly enjoy working with women experiencing anxiety and relationship difficulties - often manifesting as high achievement and/or perfectionism. Many of my current clients are in the helping professions - mental health, medicine, faith-based ministry. Together, we begin to explore interperso...
There is no specific criteria that determines who needs or would benefit from having someone to talk to. Therapy is a process. My personal mission is to make sure that each individual that I encounter feels heard, empowered, connected and supported. EWOL provides comprehensive mental health therapy for adolescents(16+), adults, and families dealing with various concerns(anxiety, depression, life transitions, relational issues etc.). This personalized approach is designed to support individu...
My approach begins with the understanding that connecting with one’s self and others is a pathway toward finding meaning and fulfillment. This pathway of connecting can become blocked by old emotional wounds or current relationship struggles. The partnership formed in the therapy relationship becomes the platform where healing broken connections may occur. This approach can help bring about lasting change by getting at the ‘root’ of the problem and bring relief from symptoms. Central to Chris’ a...

Do you know there are 104 words you can find in the 9 letters that make up the word POTENTIAL? There are. I've found every one of them (the first time without an app to help me!). I'm committed to helping my clients find all the things inside to help them live out their potential: heal from trauma, work through anxiety and depression, whatever it may be. I use the good, bad, and otherwise to help them become better....
Many mental health issues are related to a trauma response in the brain and body. Trauma is often conceptualized as one single event or experience that causes intense fear or distress. However, not all people who experience these kinds of events develop trauma symptoms, and many people who do experience trauma symptoms cannot identify a single event such as this. Another way to understand trauma symptoms is that they occur when an individual’s context overwhelms their nervous system’s ability to...

I believe everyone is capable of living the life they dream of— or at least close to it! Each individual is unique and has a subjective reality to guide their behavior and thinking patterns. Once this subjective reality is explored and understood, including the manifestations of the reality and the roots that created it, the individual can challenge and alter it to create a new, more fulfilling experience. Therapy is a space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in an o...
Every person can achieve a sense of empowerment and self-assuredness. To achieve that, I strive to make sure my clients feel heard, validated, and valuable. Also, I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths and overcome that which may be holding them back from being their most authentic and fulfilled selves. I feel honored to hear and be entrusted with the words, thoughts, and feelings of those I provide service to, and I do not take that lightly. I value creating a warm a...
I believe counseling is a process of fostering and encouraging hope: hope for support, hope for change, and hope for new possibilities. We will work together to create a space that is safe and comfortable for you, where change is possible. I believe that, as the client, you are the expert on your own life and have the power to find the solutions that will work best for you. I simply help facilitate this process and support you along the way. There is always hope, and with some time and attention...

Are you trying to reach your goals, but feel like you're running in circles? We can help with improving your happiness, addressing a problem-area in your life, or whatever else you want to focus on. One-size-fits-all counseling doesn't work, so each client's action plans are based on what works best for them. We believe in a mind-body-spirit approach where we need to have Harmony between all three to feel truly fulfilled. Warmth and insight are the foundation of our sessions, especially as we...

I believe that every person already has what they need to heal, but sometimes our “okay-ness” gets stuck under layers of self-protection and hurt. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process that involves peeling back the layers that help protect you, to remove what no longer serves you, so you can get to your true authentic self....

I want to provide you with support, empathy, a shoulder to cry on, and to join you in celebration dances as you work to meet your goals. Can’t wait to work with you, Mama! Navigating my own path through the great adventure...
