Life is a four-letter word. There are situations that arise in our lives that cause us to feel alone, misunderstood, or fearful.

My goal is to be that person and work together to develop a way for you to breathe better. Life is a four-letter word; but, so is Hope.

Creating changes in our lives can often feel overwhelming and it is difficult to know where to start! I enjoy working with clients who recognize things in their lives aren’t working the way they expected or needed and are willing to look for ways to change their experience. I believe that we need to look inside ourselves to see if how we think about our own selves can impact our our views of life experiences and relationships. Look inward can often feel scary and I’m honored when clients allow me to share in that exploration with them.

The use of alcohol and drugs, domestic violence, suicide, chronic grief and loss, internalized oppression, emotional, spiritual, and mental wounds are ALL symptoms not causes of imbalance. In order to heal, a community needs to deal with the causes of historical and generational, unresolved trauma and move toward balance. We acknowledge our inter-connectedness to all that has been created in this life and the unseen world. Healing will take place through the use of cultural and spiritual knowledge including creation stories, ancestral teachings, journeying into balance and wellness, as it takes everyone to heal the community.

We all need help at times, and it could be difficult and scary when we do, but getting help could be the best thing we do for ourselves. Life's journey can take us to many places, but in order to walk on this journey we need to be alive. I look at therapy as part of this life’s journey. A moment in time when we walk together and look at life in a way that makes better sense for you and for me. It would be an honor to take those steps with you and try and develop a better life journey for you.
