At some point in our lives, most of us will face situations for which we feel unprepared and ill-equipped. Challenges arising from career decisions, stage of life transitions, social interactions, and personal relationships can foster anxiety, depression, feelings of isolation, and low self-esteem. Jill’s goal is to create a counseling environment in which her clients feel safe to acknowledge their struggles and equipped to address them. During time together, her clients live from their values rather than from their fears, to bring the best of themselves to every aspect of their lives. To that end, Jill works with clients on enhancing personal insight and rethinking existing methods for managing stress, coping with conflict, balancing work/school demands with personal life, and navigating personality and family of origin issues.

Having a passion to work with people to bring healing and resolution, Mike strives to encourage and equip others to reach their greatest potential and empower them with the necessary tools to guide them in this process. His approach to counseling is both collaborative and integrative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral, Interpersonal, Psychodynamic, and Family Systemic Theories. He has discovered that each person has a fascinating life story to share. Through one’s story, we discover how each person was influenced by past experiences, both positive and negative; interactions with family members and peers; and beliefs constructed around thoughts and feelings experienced during significant life events. Utilizing the above mentioned theories greatly assists him in better understanding each person, his/her story, and root causes that fuel patterns of behavior.
