I have always been interested in the effects of trauma on one's life. Trauma has many effects that most don't consider. I have learned how to assist people in creating a loved life in spite of any trauma they have experienced.

Limited session times available. If you feel like life is overwhelming and you don't know how to cope, it's okay to ask for help. It could be that school, work, family life, parenting (or doing all of them at the same time) are creating immense stressors. Or maybe events from your past are making it difficult to do what matters to you. Know that you are not alone and you don't have to walk through this by yourself.

I do not accept insurance at this time. From birth to adulthood our experiences can affect how we show up in the world. Those experiences can affect our behavior, thinking, and mood, leaving us in an emotionally unhealthy place. I will partner with you, meet you where you are, and provide a safe and supportive space as you find your way and begin to live the life you desire. My goal is to empower you to develop the skills to overcome personal challenges.

Have you ever felt alone in a crowd? Struggling with the difficulties of your lived experiences and feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders can be a common human experience, and overwhelming to the point of feeling weak, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. When you find yourself grappling with a sense of doom and experiencing a feeling of everything falling apart around you, all you desire is someone who can acknowledge your emotions, stand by your side, actively listen, and empathize with your situation.

My approach to counseling closely mirrors my view of life: there is no one-size-fits-all answer. I use a multifaceted approach to counseling, pulling from the core theoretical approaches of CBT, Person-Centered, and DBT. I believe that as humans, we were created for connection with others. We all experience unexpected circumstances that make life challenging, and attempting to balance life's challenges on our own can be confusing and frustrating. I focus on helping my clients discover their self-worth and core values in order to help them build a life they are proud of.

Life can be overwhelming and we all need a little support sometimes. Work, family, relationships….it can be a lot to handle alone. Having a safe and supportive person to talk to can help ease the burden and assist in gaining a new perspective when there seems to be no way out. It takes a lot of courage to take that first step to seek help, so you can take pride in the fact that you are here now.

Through extensive training with Virginia Satir, mother of family therapy, I learned, long ago, that all people come equipped with internal resources for growth. My goal: to help the people who come to me to become aware of those resources – to actualize their unique self. Often, this involves our ferreting out wrong information, gathered while growing up. Generally, this "dated" information is transmitted from parents who, themselves, did not know any better. My intent is to create safe contexts in which a person may discover their strengths while learning how to cope with their perceived "weakness."

It's easy to compare our inner struggles to the polished exteriors others present. That sense of isolation can make us mold ourselves into versions of what we think we should be, losing touch with our true selves. When we push away the darker aspects of ourselves, we also dim our inner light. Together, we can explore the real "You" beyond the facade, allowing the parts of you that long to be seen and understood to come forward.
