From the outside looking in, you have a great life. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you are screaming for life to slow down. That little voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short. You are just trying to hold it all together, but it's exhausting and you don't think you can do it anymore. You are tired of giving so much to everyone else while you continue to come up last on your list. Not anymore. It's time for a change.

To quote Mary Harvey, “trauma survivors have symptoms instead of memories.” In my work, I have found it is common for people to question if they are "crazy" or if something is "wrong" with them. More often than not, the answer is "no." No, you are not crazy. No, something is not wrong with you. Rather, your body has adapted to traumas and perceived threats in ways that have helped you survive over time. When we feel tense, anxious, or angry and on edge with those uncomfortable bodily responses like panic, dizziness, or shutting down, our body is talking to us. Trauma is a legacy of symptoms that keeps on giving every day.

Admitting that you need help can be a very difficult thing. Trying to get help can be even harder, so the fact that you are looking at this profile now means that you or a loved one are ready to take the next step towards receiving help and healing. Life can be so difficult at times and even seem hopeless. It can feel like you're lost in a dark wilderness. We want to partner with you to help you find your way out of the darkness...one baby step at a time.

Wherever you may be in your therapeutic journey, I am here for you. I will help you become the master of your journey. Regardless of your challenges and no matter the pace you may need, I truly have the compassion and empathy to meet you where you are in life. The nature of my counseling is to provide individuals, couples, and families with the tools to turn your challenges into triumphs.

Are you or your loved ones struggling with emotional pain, past hurts, current events, or behaviors that interfere with daily life? Is it time for change? Imagine overcoming these challenges and finding that calm, inner peace. Sometimes you just need to talk to process your thoughts and emotions. Let’ explore the barriers that impair one’s ability to move forward or make changes. I have many years of experience working with children, teens, parents, and adults in both the school setting and in therapy concerning low self-worth, anxiety, depression, trauma, divorce, life adjustments, and behavior.

During life’s most challenging chapters, we all need support, encouragement, and help to navigate the hardest times. Past and current struggles may be a part of your story, but they certainly don't have to define your future. Healing and change are both possible. If you're ready, I'd be honored to be on your journey to help support and empower you. Over the years, I've learned that many issues leading to counseling begin from unresolved trauma. I am nationally certified in TF-CBT (trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy) and nationally certified in Brainspotting.
