Hi, my current available times are Monday every other week at 5pm, Tues. at 3pm, Wed. at 11am and noon, and Thurs. at 3pm. I have experience working with adults, teens, pre-teens, and children who were overcoming anxiety, ADHD, OCD, depression, trauma/PTSD, addiction, post-concussive syndrome (TBI), career struggles, and disruptive life events (divorce or loss). Since graduating high school in 1995, I have been actively engaged in my own practice of emotional release and movement therapy to overcome my own childhood traumas.
Together, we will explore your personal experience with life. You can feel safe to share your story, and we will go with your flow on this journey of personal growth. In addition, I have a fun and unique approach with kids.
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I will meet you where you are at with care and empathy to establish a connection and to support your healing process. With a teamwork approach, you and I can work together toward your counseling goals at your own comfortable pace.

My approach has to do with creating a new center of self through strengthening inner validation. Through discussion, new perspectives, and simple, gentle movement, you can learn to take charge of your own brain and nervous system, calming yourself and trusting the journey of life.

I believe that addictive behaviors, numbing or distracting, come from the inability to sit with one's own feelings. As an effective counselor, I model and facilitate this, holding a space of personal transformation that I have built upon through almost 3 decades of personal growth. My combination of SE, IFS, and HeartMath is truly unique and effective.
