Consultant, Psychotherapist, Educator, Expat
Hi and welcome to your first step towards balance and growth. I am an American psychotherapist living in Okinawa, Japan. My belief is that everyone deserves to be heard and understood. I am committed to offering the highest quality professional and confidential online consulting services to those in the helping profession. (psychotherapists, nurses, doctors, teachers, etc.)
I have a PhD in Clinical Counseling and am licensed in the state of Tennessee as a Marital and Family Therapist (LMFT). In addition, I enjoy teaching psychology to college students, speaking at many local events, and supervising and consulting fellow therapists. I have over 12 years of clinical experience treating individuals, couples and families and received specialized training in:
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Brainspotting
I am a member of the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT), the American Counseling Association (ACA), the Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES), and Chi Sigma Iota (Counseling Academic & Professional Honor Society).
I believe in an eclectic approach in my consulting, maintaining a person-focused approach. I devoted years to studying empathy and am passionate about providing a safe atmosphere where individuals can explore their unique life experiences and decide the direction they want to go. I would be honored to walk with you on your journey.
