Life can be hard, unfair, and hurtful at times. But at the end of any storm, there is always a rainbow. As a therapist, my job is to sit with you in the storm. One of the essential pieces to making a change is the relationship between counselor and client. In my practice, I work hard to create a safe and trusting environment where all clients feel comfortable in sharing a piece of their life experiences with me. I have experience working with various mental health disorders and life concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, ADD, oppositional defiant disorder, relationship conflict, LGBTQIA+, minority stress and many more.

Life can feel really hard sometimes. Maybe you feel off-track or overwhelmed by everyday life. Or maybe you're struggling with the effects of trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, or something else. Therapy can help. Using a strength-based approach, I can help you to build on the skills you have to find balance and navigate difficult times with more resilience. My approach places great value on the relationship between a client and therapist and I work to build this relationship in a relaxed, non-judgmental, and supportive space.

I have worked with many clients dealing with life issues involving depression, anxiety, transitions, loss, grief, and conflicts in relationships. I try to assist individuals to identify their personal strengths to best resolve and understand that life consists of various challenges and to come to terms with issues that are beyond their control without being a victim. I utilize a systemic theoretical approach based in positive thinking, acting, and living. I start wherever my client is and allow them to direct their growth by providing them with options and encouragements.

"Do you feel that something needs to change? Do you feel worn out from coping with grief or trauma? It can be painful when you are going through this, and it's common to experience other problems like anxiety and depression. Unfortunately, a lot of people develop strategies to avoidance for these problems. In reality, though, this can result in a buildup of repressed emotions, worsening issues long-term and making symptoms more frequent. My focus is on EMDR and Brainspotting. These practices help people’s brains to reprocess specific memories in the proper ways.

I specialize in working with people around issues of shame that result from addictions, co-dependency, trauma, adoption related issues and more.

Life is full of challenges. And sometimes we all need support. I have 2 passions; Autism and Women's Issues. I recognized many years ago that services for people with high functioning autism are lacking in our nation. They tend to fall in the cracks because people believe they don't need support. People with high functioning autism do need support, but that support needs to be uniquely designed for them. That's where I come in. My second passion, Women's Issues, has been some of my most meaningful work. Women face unique challenges in our culture, and it helps to have a therapist that understands these issues.
