About

Hello, I am Hope, Are you feeling stuck and like you need to make changes in your life to be happier and more fulfilled? Do things feel out of balance with your relationship with yourself and others? Do you find it harder to be kind to yourself than to a stranger? I have experience in helping teen and adult clients, often going through major life transitions. With a goal to better manage stress and anxiety, work through relationship conflicts, and improve motivation, and self-esteem. We'll address your whole self, mind, body and spirit, to find a balance through cognitive therapy, as well as mindfulness, encouraging yoga and artistic expression to better know yourself. I strive to be unbiased and am comfortable working with people from all backgrounds. My work experience is varied across many settings, as I have provided individual, family and group therapy in community mental health agencies, residential treatment facilities, county jails and private practice within a group and solo. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling life and to take the first steps toward needed change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
