Finding a good therapist is no easy task. The search can be exhausting, especially when you’re just trying to find someone who will get you. Therapy is a vulnerable place to find yourself being. However, taking this first step moves you closer to the change you seek to make within yourself. Change can be scary, and I commend you for taking the first step in seeking to find someone.

Although we cannot avoid life’s pain and trauma, we do not have to process it alone. I see counseling as a collaborative and supportive process that can aid in one's healing. Maya Angelou said, “You can’t really know where you are going until you know where you have been.” I believe it is imperative to evaluate our life story and the meaning we have attached to our experiences. Recognizing the root of our maladaptive thoughts and emotional distress allows us to receive the hope and healing needed to move towards a satisfying and purpose-filled life.

My deepest desire is for every child to feel known, heard, and loved. I want each individual to wholeheartedly believe that their story matters - from the big experiences of life to the little, ordinary moments. My hope is that through our work together, children can discover their immense worth as individuals, each unique in the strengths they bring to our world. Witnessing children find their voice and discover their passions is what inspires me to do this work every day! I truly love waking alongside children as they uncover the hurts and difficulties keeping them from living their life and story to the fullest.

My ideal client is someone who is struggling from anxiety, depression, and/or the effects of past trauma. I work best with clients who are open to accepting their own responsibility to change, and are ready to recover control of their own life from the things which have held them back from how they want to live. I have a special passion and training to work with those who have undergone spiritual abuse/trauma, which is any harmful use of power and control experienced within a faith tradition. If you're recovering from this, or just want to sort out what you believe and why without judgment, I would love to help!

I am an integrative therapist that uses cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and attachment-based approaches.
What if our journey in life isn't meant to be a journey of proving we are enough. What if our journey is one of knowing that we always were. What if who we are, exactly how we are has always been enough; enough to be loved, to be heard, to be seen, enough to be you. Traumatic experiences have a way of making us feeling that we are irreparably broken. We carry them with us in our mind, body, and soul as we continue through our lives searching for something to fill the emptiness they left behind. To the outside world we are who we've always been, yet inside we are showing up in our lives as someone we don't even recognize.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is a sacred space. I desire that clients can come into each session and be themselves. It is important to me that therapy isn’t just serious but that there are moments of laughter as well. Therapy is a journey of ups and downs, and each individual deserves guided support along the way for a fruitful experience. Each person has a different story that is worth sharing and is possible to rewrite. Sessions are for the client, and I work to be flexible and creative to create an experience that is catered to your needs and desires.

Attachment-based Therapists

Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?

Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.

What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?

Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.

How long does attachment-based therapy last?

Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.

Does attachment-based therapy work?

Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
