Our Counselors
We have both licensed marriage and family therapists (MFT) as well as registered interns. Our counselors are skilled in the most current therapeutic methods. We serve families, individuals, children and couples. Earth Circles welcomes all races, ethnicities, religions, and sexual orientations. We tailor your counseling to your needs, with many approaches to healing. Our counselors provide a wide fee range.

By trusting your inner wisdom, you can heal old beliefs and negative thoughts that keep you stuck and unable to go forward in your life. As we embark upon the journey of your healing, I will be there to assist and guide you in co-creating your life's goals and dreams. In facilitating your process, I use various modalities, such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), focusing, meditation and other body based therapies. My training is transpersonal and body-oriented, which means that I believe one way in "coming home" to yourself is through the inner wisdom of your own body. Please let me assist you in making lasting changes so that you, too, might enjoy more meaningful relationships with yourself and others, and find your inner peace.

I consider you the expert and believe strongly in your innate intelligence and self-healing capacity. My aim is to provide a safe space in which you feel free to express openly, reflect upon the self, unearth the roots of personal pain, shift negative patterns, and adopt positive lifestyle practices.

I believe in creating a safe and welcoming space for all. There are a variety of challenges that we face in our lives. I believe that therapy is a place where we can work collaboratively in order to find the roots of these challenges and work to better oneself and meet therapeutic/personal goals all without judgment.

Both body and mind remember negative experiences that occurred in the past. I will assist you to activate your innate ability to heal your psychological wounds. As we explore your experiences, I will also assist you to discover your emotions and beliefs behind the experience. While building resources to reinforce a new positive pattern, you will gradually integrate and transform old patterns of body and mind.

I am most inspired in life by the capacity we all share to heal, grow, and reach for the joy and connection that is our birthright. I witness this capacity every day in my clients' courage to transform hurt and fear from the past, and present day obstacles into deeper understanding and respect for themselves, and the freedom to make richer choices in their lives.

An authentic and empathic relationship is the basic foundation for people to develop their full potential in psychotherapy. I encourage my clients to increase their awareness in a supportive environment, and then unfold their authentic self while increasing their freedom to choose.

We come into this world to experience, grow and enjoy a good life. We all experience suffering and difficult times, which can lead us to distorted interpretations about self, others, and how to understand our experiences. Yet, we all have instincts, drives and the right to pursue our own happiness.
