I offer individual and couples therapy, along with a Healing from Narcissistic Abuse support group, to foster growth and confidence. I specialize in supporting teens, couples, survivors of intimate partner violence, those struggling with codependency, and LGBTQ+ individuals navigating identity, faith, and family. If you’re feeling anxious, stuck, or weighed down by trauma or relationship challenges, I’m here to help. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and solution-focused. Book a free consult!
Using evidence-based techniques like Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I help clients develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen emotional regulation skills, and gain deeper insight into their personal narratives. I may also provide homework to support learning practical tools that empower.
If you’re reading this, it means you’re considering the next step toward healing and growth in your life. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey. Feel free to reach out with any questions, -I look forward to working with you!
