Helping those afflicted by trauma, anxiety, and depression is my passion.

Feeling like you just can’t do it anymore? You and your partner are caught in the cycle of chasing or backing away. We all get caught in our cycles within our relationships. And sometimes we are so caught in the havoc that we just don’t know what to do anymore to make things better. We begin to feel hopeless and don’t seem to find the right words without getting into another fight. The round and round never seems to stop. We all need our partners to be accessible to us, responsive to our needs, and engaged with us. We all need to know the answer to ‘Are you there for me?’ The answer may confirm our worst fears.

Are you feeling stuck or alone in your process? Maybe that you’re drowning in your thoughts or having difficulty enduring this thing we like to call “life?” Life is about enduring and that comes with its challenges. As humans, we don’t endure well alone. Trauma is not what has happened to us, it’s how we are impacted by what’s happened. Whether or not we like the word, we all have levels of trauma and need a place to sort through it. Trauma can be a scary word, but I want to emphasize that even the silent treatment is a big T trauma to a little kid, which can impact their functioning for a lifetime.

I have an education in both clinical counseling and body psychology. My specialty is the treatment of trauma and PTSD for veterans and victims of sexual assault and violence. Together we explore those life challenges that cause pain and uncertainty, including anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship issues, using gentle, collaborative methods that ensure safe, supportive results. Through a combination of traditional psychotherapy and body-based modalities, such as polarity therapy, movement techniques, and sensory awareness, I help you access your body's wisdom to gently transform faulty beliefs and dissolve emotional blocks, which often results in relieving physical symptoms as well.

To explore the deeper stories, you must abandon contempt for compassion. And from this compassionate stance, curiously and courageously engage your own heart while holding the same open stance toward others. It is in this tilled ground that true growth and change occur. Here is where creativity and connection are born, and the once solitary protagonist discovers that they are fighting in the company of a great multitude of heroes, each with their own story, each digging deeper.

At some point in life, perhaps now, a personal, relational, or professional crisis may pressure you toward a crossroad where you'll find yourself in unknown territory and possibly heading in a new direction. Such transitional times often feel unsettling and uncertain, even overwhelming; however, they can also be a turning point. Though difficult and often unwelcomed, this turning point can present a critical opportunity to make a real change, and finally address what you've struggled to resolve on your own, and no longer need to process alone.

We are constantly bombarded with messages telling us that we need to do it all on our own. I have good news- you are not alone and you don't have to do it on your own! We all have a deep desire to be fully known and fully loved. It is my belief that we can't be fully known and loved by others until we fully know and love ourselves. Having a strong sense of identity and purpose allows us to heal, forgive, and move forward with clarity, hope, and tenacity.
