I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has over 20 years of experience working with adults, adolescents, children, and families. I specialize in working with individuals who have been traumatized by a specific event, or have developmental trauma due to events that have occurred throughout life using Somatic Experiencing and NARM. I believe that attachment to others is vital to healing. We have developed coping strategies that were effective in the past - you have ability to allow yourself to heal and change! I would love to work with you providing you the time and place that you need to start the healing process.

Therapy is a unique opportunity to explore your most authentic self. It is a space with no right or wrong. My goal as a therapist is to hold a safe space for you to go on a journey to explore the experiences that have caused pain and discomfort in your life and help guide you to understanding your authentic self as you foster self-love and acceptance for all the parts of yourself.

Life can present many challenges - from relationship issues to anxiety, depression, trauma, struggling with self-esteem, or the many other curveballs that life can throw. In a safe, nonjudgemental space, I would like to provide you with the support and tools to find your way to a better place. This can be done in several different ways, whether it be improving and getting a better understanding of relationships in your life, exploring emotions, or increasing sense of self worth and confidence. I would like to support you in the process of untangling and making meaning out of all of that.

Do you feel hopeless or lacking purpose? Are you a young person struggling with parts of your life you once had control over? Are you at a crossroads in the current stage of your life? If so, let’s connect. I work with individuals who struggle with relationships, those who say they’re having an existential crisis, as well as individuals who look like they have it together on the outside but the inside is chaotic and unsettled. Chauncey Depew couldn’t have said it better when he wrote “The first step to getting somewhere is deciding that you are not going stay where you are.”

Summer enjoys working with all walks of life from children to adult. Her primary focus is on how thoughts and behavior can shape one’s perception of life, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  She believes every person has their own story, dreams, pain, hurts, habits, memories, way of life, values, and beliefs. This can shape who we are. Sometimes we need assistance to navigate through life’ events.  Summer believes each person deserves to embrace who they are and learn to grow and change throughout life’s up’s, down’s, hurts, and happy times. Summer loves to encourage focusing on the positivity in oneself.

Hello! I am an independently licensed clinical counselor in NM, nationally board-certified, and certified as an EMDR therapist through the EMDR International Association.

I care deeply about the relationship I establish with the people who come to see me in therapy. I work hard to provide clients with a safe and non-judgmental environment, in which they can feel comfortable being themselves. I know life can be difficult, but I truly believe that we all have the ability to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Knowing where to begin can be challenging , and that is what I am here for. I always work to meet clients where they are, and create a treatment plan based on their specific needs.

I am a strength-based therapist dedicated to helping individuals through their difficult struggles, hardships, or any circumstances where they want to improve on some life goals. I aim at assisting individuals to learn how to complete their therapeutic work in a safe, calm, and authentic environment. Everyone needs a genuine person that will encourage, believe, and support them through all aspects of life, and to build on their strengths for personal growth.

Are you looking for a non-traditional therapist? I integrate my spiritual life coaching training and the practice of art-making into the therapeutic process in a way that honors who you are wholistically. This wholistic approach is based on the psycho-spiritual therapeutic modality, which is grounded in the notion that “the soul is the starting point for balance.” This approach to treatment takes into consideration the WHOLE of who you are, be it physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, culturally, etc. and examines how your lived experiences have impacted your mental health.

I have been a licensed counselor for over 20 years, and I have worked consistently in the mental health field in various roles including therapist, clinical manager, diagnostician, and instructor. I believe the key to meaningful and effective counseling is connection and that empathy, healthy boundaries, and proactively engaging in my own mental health processes have allowed me to be fully present and attuned with my clients.

What we think, we become. The more you think and say to yourself one thing, the more you start believing it and then ultimately start acting on it. It can be challenging work, but there are ways we can make this idea work for ourselves. Trained in EMDR.

Whether you are dealing with relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, PTSD (trauma) or addictions, I’m here to help! I believe that we all do much better when we have positive support and accountability to help us overcome our fears and live our best lives.

Thank you for taking the next step to a better life. I am accepting new clients for tele-sessions and limited in person sessions. Finding a therapist can be hard. Sometimes the first call is the hardest. I understand and assure you that I am here and available to help. I believe once you can find the courage to visualize your dreams, and the willingness to start your journey, you will not fail. My therapeutic style is dynamic, multidisciplinary and ready to help you address your behavioral health needs.

Psychotherapy is a partnership with the goal of exploring who you are, what you want, and what is getting in your way. But how does it work? First, engaging in psychotherapy gives you the rare opportunity for another human being to focus entirely on you which can be healing in itself. And if that person is specifically trained to know what questions to ask and when to challenge and confront and when to support and encourage, then the possibilities for growth are endless.

Within every one of us lies the potential and wisdom to live as joyfully and fulfilled as possible. While we cannot change the past and in some situations current stressors, we can develop strengths, strategies, and insight to better manage our responses in the present and future. As a strength-based, solution-focused provider, it is my purpose to help you gain awareness and control of thoughts, feelings, and possibly actions that prevent you from living the life you seek. Through culturally sensitive, compassionate, client-centered care, I will help you identify and reach your goals regardless of what they may be.

NOTE: I am presently on medical leave and unavailable. My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, and centered on the belief that with help, you can learn to think, feel and behave better. My therapeutic role is to promote enhanced self-awareness, encourage coping skills, and foster personal responsibility. These skills will enable you to respond better to adversity and maintain a healthier perspective on your difficulties. You will also realize that you CAN learn to stabilize and reassure yourself when problems arise (as they always do), and thereby work through them more effectively.

Are you ready to change your life? You have already demonstrated strength and courage just by asking for help. The benefits of asking for help can be life-changing and significantly rewarding. It is my goal to help you reach your goals. As you and I work together we will encourage your growth by learning to understand the difficulties you face, and together, we will explore and implement solutions.
