Engaging in therapy can be challenging, yet deeply transformative. As your therapist, I will support you as you process your past and present, heal trauma wounds, deepen personal insight, grow in your relationships, embrace your authenticity, claim your power, craft your future, release what no longer serves you, and truly thrive. As a client, you are motivated, invested, and willing to persevere with curiosity through both the challenging and enlightening phases of therapy. I will meet you where you are and provide a safe space for your unique story with respect and compassion.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or PTSD? Do you feel emotionally stuck? Or do you feel like your emotions high-jack you? Have people told you they can't get close to you? Have you tried to live a full and meaningful life but find you need help to overcome something in your past? I would love to meet with you. My approach is to teach skills that can bring relief in the short term, while we work together to discover and heal the deeper roots of your emotional pain. I am certified in EMDR and trained in IFS but use whatever skill or technique is most effective for each client.

There is HOPE! I believe counseling is a "product!" You should have measurable improvements in your life when you are in counseling. I am skilled at providing a safe relationship where you can explore difficult situations, patterns, and experiences while learning new ways to address long-standing challenges. We will identify what has NOT been working and what IS working, with the goal of practicing effective strategies to create more positive results. I am a Certified EMDR and Sex Addiction Therapist, Nationally and state Certified Master Addictions Specialist, and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I specialize in helping men and woman who struggle with trauma and abuse issues that have manifested in sexual addiction, porn addiction, and other intimacy problems. My own story is one that has been impacted, and in many ways shaped by childhood abuse. The freedom I have seen, and continue to see as I walk through my own journey, is what drives me to help others step into freedom, finding again that joy for life.

Since counseling is a very personal experience, your journey with me will include a personalized approach when exploring how to bring about self-acceptance, growth and change. I am a very solution oriented therapist, and work to provide tools to enhance my clients' lives. Tools can include anything from reading material, visual imagery, music, poetry, collage making or homework that you can grow from.
