Maria* felt the pressure mounting.
“I can’t take one more day of this!”
Things were coming to a head in her household, and Maria found herself escaping more into her fantasy world. She had prioritized helping others for so many years that she had forgotten herself.
She couldn’t share her true feelings, not even with her adult children.
She felt she had to step up to fill in the gaps in the household and the marriage, as her husband’s illness progressed, and she did not feel up to the challenge.
“When will it be my turn to have my needs met and to feel heard?”
Adam* had hit the crisis point.
“I’m not feeling heard or seen.”
The doctors, his boss, his father, and his fiancée were not listening.
He felt like he was alone against the world. Things were falling apart at work, and his upcoming wedding was at risk. He was barely hanging on day-to-day.
“I’m feeling stuck and have lost hope that things can ever change!”
Kate* didn’t feel safe.
“I’m not who I used to be!”
Kate had lost the love of back-country skiing after being caught in an avalanche. Her partner told her to “just get over it.” After all, she had miraculously survived. But memories of that day haunted her at home and work. Her usual confidence had taken a big hit.
“That nagging sadness and fear just won’t go away.”
Marcus* was struggling with stress and lack of self-esteem.
“I feel shot down when I try to stand up for myself, and then I overreact and do something that makes it worse!”
Marcus, a successful business executive, was going through a nightmare divorce and custody battle. The stress was pushing him over the edge – continually acting-before-thinking and always looking like the bad guy. After losing his temper at work one day, he felt his co-workers were starting to avoid him.
He was fearful of losing his kids and his job.
“People say I need to get some help, and maybe they are right.”

Hi, I’m Jeb!
My goal is to establish a therapeutic relationship with you and to provide a therapy space where the heart, mind, and body can come together to heal in a neutral, nonjudgmental, whole-person way.
You will feel listened to and can come as you are and be accepted. Within this comfortable therapy space, you will have the freedom to be creative with your natural healing process.
My intention is for you to experience and benefit from insights and therapy ideas that are tailored specifically to you. You will have the freedom to create the life you most want to live.
I bring to therapy many years of professional and life experience. I have had professional experience with, as well as, in some cases, close personal association or life-experience with: addiction issues, codependency, all types of trauma and PTSD, severe mental and physical illness, bipolar disorder, depression, divorce, abusive relationships, legal difficulties, gender expression, sexuality differences, grief, elder issues, and anxiety.
Every person is unique and a mystery. I love my job because it is endlessly fascinating and fulfilling to meet each new person as they are, help them explore their lives, and guide them to discover their unique path. I look forward to meeting you!
Empowered to make changes.

behind what can be heard,
lie the answers we have been searching for
for so long”

Maria found the safety to discover her own voice.
In therapy, Maria traced her pattern of prioritizing others at her own expense back to early experiences and family roles.
Growing up with an alcoholic father and playing second fiddle to her domineering older sister, Maria believed that her feelings and voice didn’t count.
She discovered that her fantasy escapes were ways she had learned to cope and that feeling the underlying emotions in therapy’s safety helped her learn to live more in the present moment.
Maria now feels empowered and capable of making changes for the better for the first time in many years.
Adam finally felt relief.
In therapy, Adam found someone who paid attention and listened.
In the past, only his symptoms were acknowledged, and he felt judged. Now that his therapist was on the same page with him, the underlying causes of his anxiety and depression were finally discovered and treated.
Adam traced his anxiety and depression back to witnessing a close family member’s near-death, which had never been focused on in previous therapy.
Adam now feels connected with others, and his self-confidence has grown.
He stood up for himself with his boss, father, and fiancée – and gained respect.
The plans for the wedding went forward. He gained a new footing at work and moved ahead in his career.
Adam’s learned assertiveness and boundary-setting were paying off.
Kate learned that she wasn’t crazy.
Life-threatening events can lead to mood swings and lingering fear.
In therapy, Kate told the complete story of what happened that day on the mountain. Feeling safe helped her deal with scary emotions that started during the avalanche and stayed with her no matter how much she tried to let them go.
She finally felt heard and able to release the fear.
Kate got back out on her skis and never looked back.
She regained her confidence and understood that sometimes bad things happen. With help, she can move past the hard things to the life she wants with her partner and at work.
Marcus gained insight into his emotional behaviors.
Marcus learned he wasn’t at fault and to tame that loud, critical voice in his head.
He learned the incredible value of the ‘pause,’ which allowed him to come up with an adequate response rather than over-reaction.
Marcus learned to set better boundaries, which helped him handle the divorce and custody battle’s anxiety and stress.
Marcus achieved the custody arrangements that he wanted. He’s a great dad who loves spending time with his kids and doesn’t get sidetracked by others’ minor issues.
He also feels a renewed energy and drives to succeed at work.
His new life is moving forward!
