Trauma Focused Therapists in Glendale, AZ
Whether you have been dealing with an issue for years or if it is something that has recently surfaced, counseling can be beneficial in addressing the problem. Counseling provides a non-judgmental environment with encouragement to explore the source of the presenting problem and work towards a greater well-being. I enjoy working with adolescent teens through middle-aged individuals and couples on a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship issues, mood disorders, coping skills, and self-esteem.

“You wake up each day to face the same demons that left you so tired the day before, and that, my love, is bravery.” Maybe you’re exhausted. You spend your days overthinking-“should I have said that?” It’s hard to connect to others, to express yourself, to find safety. You end up in the same patterns in relationships over and over in a way that is uncomfortably predictable. Maybe you’ve experienced trauma, abuse, or volatile relationships and it feels like it’s something that’s followed you throughout your life. Your coping skills aren’t working anymore and may be sabotaging the things you care about or disconnecting completely.

It is in the experience of others and our own that at one time or another all of us have faced, is facing or will face some kind of adversity, distress, depression, anxiety, loss, abuse, neglect and trauma. During these seasons in life, fear, loneliness and/or being overwhelmed can feel as if we are stuck in quick sand. The more we fight to get out of the quicksand the more we sink, and hope can diminish. Clients say we meet them exactly where they are in their struggle. We learn the core challenges that are in front of them and together work towards a solution.

You may understand where your patterns come from and still feel stuck in them. You might feel overwhelmed and disconnected from your self and life. Therapy can help you understand not only what happened, but why your body, relationships, and nervous system may still be responding as though you're not safe. I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, PTSD, C-PTSD, developmental and relational trauma, and attachment wounds. Together, we can slow things down, make sense of what you’ve been through, and help you feel more like yourself again...even if you are not sure who that really is.

Helping individuals build resilience, develop healthier coping strategies, and create lasting change.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but reaching out is a powerful act of self-care. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can openly explore life’s challenges, gain practical tools for change, and move toward healing and personal growth.

I work with adults and couples who are navigating religious trauma, deconstruction, and other existential life transitions, as well as first responders, veterans, high-stakes professionals, and trauma survivors. Before counseling, I served in the US Army, and worked as a paramedic and police officer. So I understand the culture, humor, stress, and walls that come with frontline work. I’ve also deconstructed out of high-control religion myself and can speak to its unique challenges. Together, we work at your pace toward real, felt-sense healing. The work is not just insight, but getting to a life that finally feels like your own.

Maybe you are the person who “has it all together,” but deep down is struggling with unprocessed childhood trauma, attachment wounds, relationship trauma, or boundary setting. You have quiet, yet core beliefs like “I’m not good enough.” You might be grieving the loss of a loved one, looking for ways to stay connected to them and feeling unseen by those around you. Maybe you are a teen or young adult experiencing the complex realities of growing up, navigating relationships, and deciding on what you want for your future. Or perhaps you just want a space to vent and express your feelings about the current state of the world.
