A Dynamic, Compassionate, Problem-Solving Therapist for Individuals and Families…Who Won’t Let You Stay Stuck.

With more than 20 years of experience, Josie is a deeply compassionate and skilled therapist who has helped individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s most painful and pivotal moments. She is known for her ability to hold space with warmth and sincerity, while also challenging her clients to confront what’s holding them back. Josie does not let her clients stay stuck – she creates a supportive, honest environment where fears and negative patterns can be gently unpacked, and meaningful change can take root. Her goal is always to help clients move toward their most authentic, empowered self.

Josie works with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, family conflict, and eating disorders. As an eating disorder specialist, she brings extensive experience from both inpatient and outpatient settings, helping clients break free from shame, self-criticism, and disconnection from their bodies. She is particularly skilled in working with those struggling with bulimia, anorexia, and binge eating. 

Josie also incorporates EMDR therapy for clients experiencing any type of trauma or unresolved pain, using this powerful approach to help people move through stuck points and access lasting relief. Trauma is known to be an underlying issue that keeps clients from being able to overcome many of their symptoms. With her specialized training Josie is able to help people move through their most difficult memories and fears.

Couples Specialist:

In her work with couples, Josie is a force for transformation. Her approach could be called a loving boot camp—compassionate, but firm. She asks her clients to show up fully, and she does not excuse an unwillingness to grow. If you’ve tried couples therapy in the past and felt discouraged, don’t give up. Josie’s approach is refreshingly direct, highly effective, and rooted in a deep desire to help both partners become their best selves. Her approach blends tough love with deep care, helping clients transform in ways they didn’t think possible. 

If desired, Josie can also offer Christian-based therapy, helping clients invite God into their healing journey with humility, grace, and spiritual depth. She is honored to integrate faith into the therapeutic process when it is meaningful to her clients.

Known for her no-nonsense clarity, grounded presence, and deep belief in human resilience, Josie walks alongside her clients with both strength and heart. If you’re ready to move forward, whether in recovery or relationship, Josie invites you to take that first step and reach out.

**In addition to therapy, Josie also offers Life Coaching services to clients regardless of location. Coaching provides a refreshing, strength-based approach to unlocking your true potential and achieving the results that matter most to you.
