I always knew that my dream was to return home after school, to the community where I grew up, and serve that community in the best way I knew how - to impact the stigma of mental health and help others find their greatest strengths. I came to this work by way of personal and professional evolution. I am in recovery. I have also experienced mental illness.
Both have stigmas. Both suck. And both have helped me find deep levels of peace, serenity, and grace. My goal is to help you find the ways mental illness (and addiction) can motivate, strengthen, and guide you. I believe that to truly see change in how we feel and act within our world, we have to engage from the roots. This is why I focus on helping you heal rather than teaching you skills.
Helping you face fears and address obstacles like panic, shame, pain, guilt, and inadequacy is one of my favorite parts of the work we will do. These obstacles drain mental energy and cloud thinking. You don't have to face these obstacles alone. I believe that our greatest asset is our capacity to embrace everything that life has to offer - the good, the bad, and everything in between.

Individual Therapy is an opportunity to meet with a therapist at Tree of Life Counseling one-on-one within a safe and confidential environment to examine issues within the privacy of a psychotherapeutic session.
Individual counseling provides a healing environment to discuss relationship issues, childhood issues, or problems surfacing due to employment, career or personal life changes.
When problems are directly related to relationships - i.e., intimate partners, parents and children, or friends - individual sessions with a therapist at Tree of Life Counseling can serve as a "safe space" to examine and contemplate feelings and issues.

We all know romantic relationships are hard work.
Like cars, they require regular maintenance to keep them running well.
If there is a problem, it's best to have it repaired right away to avoid further complications down the road.
Often we can do some of the basic maintenance and repairs ourselves.
Other times, despite our best efforts, we need to rely on a professional to take a look and give us a hand.
Couples therapy can resolve a current problem, prevent an exacerbation of problems or simply provide a "check-up" for a happy couple that is experiencing a period of transition or increased stress.

Family therapy at Tree of Life Counseling is based on the belief that the family is a unique system with its own structure and patterns of communication.
These patterns are determined by many things, including the parents' beliefs and values, the personalities of all family members, and the influence of the extended family (grandparents, aunts, and uncles).
As a result of these variables, each family develops its own unique personality, which is powerful and affects all of its members.
During therapy sessions with your Tree of Life Therapist, the family's strengths are used to help them handle their problems.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.
Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy people can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference.
It is widely assumed that severe emotional pain requires a long time to heal.
EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma.
