I am a trauma-informed therapist with over 15 years of experience working with adults who are addressing issues related to life transitions, relationship problems, trauma, the quest for spiritual wellness, stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, identity, education, and career challenges.
I believe everyone has the ability, strength, and courage to create the life path they want. Everyone can address issues and make new choices. Challenging times and inner conflicts can motivate one to explore how to make life more meaningful and fulfilling. It is not a simple task to address current problems or old wounds, but it is liberating to resolve them. I will guide you in examining patterns that influence emotional distress and unhappiness. Learning how to cope and change these is part of your process of self-discovery and healing.

I have experience working with a diverse array adults in both individual and couples treatment.
As a therapist, it is my goal to help clients develop a deeper understanding of their experiences, beliefs, and emotions, so that they might live more full and authentic lives. Since each of us faces unique challenges and obstacles on our path towards change, I approach therapy as a collaborative, nonjudgmental process in which we will co-create a space where we can be thoughtful, open, and curious about what is shared.

I focus on supporting children, adolescence, young adults, and families through navigating the unpredictable, and confusing world of growing up.
Sometimes even day to day activities can feel overwhelming. Whether you are a child just starting school, an adolescent going through changes, a young adult navigating being on your own for the first time, or a parent who is struggling with understanding your child, know that you are never alone. Taking that first step in asking for help and seeking out therapy is understandably difficult, even if it isn’t the first time, but can make a world of difference. Therapy is a way to better understand you and/or your child’s experiences, while also creating healthy coping skills, boundaries, and sense of self.

I have a wealth of experience with diverse ages of children, teens, adults, and seniors.
Life can be an unexpected wave in the water that makes you feel unsteady, or it can be a giant wave that overwhelms you, and it keeps coming, and it is hard to regain your sense of balance. But when a helping hand reaches out, it can help you to find your strength and balance. Whether it feels like a big or small wave, I can be that support and guidance so when the waves come, you can brace them and keep going. I believe in providing empathetic care and guidance through a collaborative therapeutic relationship by navigating the unique experiences that influence each client’s life.

I work with youth, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, educator, and former teacher. I believe the power of healing lies in being connected to others, and collaboration is the heart of my practice. The stresses of life can isolate and alienate us from those we rely on for support. A therapeutic relationship is one where you can be connected and understood without the judgment inherent in your other relationships. Therapy should be a place where you can be comfortable being yourself and learn the tools and skills to improve your satisfaction with life.
