As a counselor, I have a particular interest in working with clients who have OCD, anxiety, and trauma-related issues. I enjoy working with clients to retrain their nervous system to find much sought after relief. As I am a fully certified Brainspotting therapist, many of my clients find healing through utilizing this approach which is a therapeutic method that taps into and releases emotional blockages within the brain and body. I believe long-lasting change can happen for clients when we explore and treat the root of the issue. My clients are predominantly female ages 16 or older.

Do you feel alone? Life can be difficult, and this can leave a person feeling helpless. One may be unable to see things positively and think others do not understand what is happening. This can make you feel alone and misjudged by your loved ones or others. Through therapy, you could walk through life with the possibility of regaining hope and confidence. One of my passions is to help everyone feel empowered to overcome whatever barriers they are going through.

I have extensive training in Family Systems Theory, Experiential Therapy and I am a Parnell Institute Attachment-Focused EMDR Level 1, 2 and 3 Therapist. Family has always been very important to me and that’s why I love systems therapy. So many of our wounds are tied to a relationship (or a lack thereof) and at the same time, healing can only be found in relationships. Sometimes we are afforded an opportunity to heal a relationship and other times we have to find internal healing with the support of other relationships. Family Systems theory views each individual in the context of their emotional unit or Family of Origin.

Life’s challenges can create feelings of depression, loneliness, hopelessness, and anxiety. In therapy, we will explore the reasons and work toward meaningful change. As awareness grows, so does the possibility of becoming more fully yourself—comfortable in your own skin, confident in your relationships, and hopeful about the future.

I believe that from the day we are born, to the day we die, we come to know ourselves in and through our most intimate relationships.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and a Certified PBSP Certified Therapist, I am trained to offer my clients the most comprehensive counseling practice available to help them improve their most intimate relationships.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and at the end of your rope? Finding a therapist is hard. If you are looking for an open space to explore yourself further, this might be it. I love working with my clients to figure out how therapy can fit into their lives in an enriching way. We might be a good fit together if you are experiencing consistent anxiety, obsessive thoughts, depression, or would like to dive further into past experiences. I especially enjoy working with people who are new to therapy, or who are experienced with therapy but are searching for a fresh start with a different perspective or approach.
