Finding balance amongst the pitfalls that life can throw at us can be challenging. Emotions, anxiety, depression, and self-doubt can quickly, and for some chronically, become overwhelming. Trauma, like your life experiences, is subjective and unique; as is the way one reacts to a stressful event. Some will struggle despite higher functioning, while others are challenged with basic daily tasks. You may find yourself desiring a sense of calm, clarity, and a more authentic fulfilling life. Having experience with some of life's challenges myself, I can provide you with understanding, expertise, and a genuine empathetic connection.
My approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental, and I help clients with anxiety, trauma, their sense of self, relationships, PTSD, & grief. I work with TI-CBT, CPT, Narrative, and Psychodynamic modalities through a trauma-informed and advocacy lens. My holistic and biopsychosocial-spiritual approach can help you find calm and inner strength in life's storms.
Regardless of your experiences, I understand the courage, strength, and vulnerability it takes to ask for help and look within. You are not alone. My passion lies in helping people overcome trauma and thrive again. With online and in-person options available, we will uniquely tailor a plan to help you better manage and transcend challenges.
