When life feels harder than it should, there's always a reason. Difficult events, whether past or present, can make daily life difficult. If you feel like you're doing more surviving than thriving, I'm here to help. I work from a trauma model, which looks at the impact of events on the way we think, feel, and act in the present. Abuse, lack of nurture, or catastrophic events can significantly impact normal functioning. Life gets better, and I work hard everyday to move people toward hope and healing.

Life can present many challenges that may feel overwhelming. At times like these you may experience sadness, anxiety, and uncertainty. Together we can work through these difficult times, allowing you to feel safe, supported, and heard with compassion. It may require courage to take that first step. Yet, by participating in therapy, you are engaging in the type of action that will propel you forward in your life. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery during which I hope to inspire a positive behavioral transformation by encouraging self-acceptance and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions.

My passion is to help those who feel weary and lost. It is difficult to be present and live a fulfilling life when the chains of past events hold us back. As hard as we run and distract ourselves, we also run away from our sense of self. Avoiding pain can grow into unhealthy behaviors and addiction. My intention is to help build a foundation for a meaningful life. Core pieces of the foundation include insight, communication, emotions, and connection. These pieces are vital to maintaining healthy relationships and attaining the love we want. Other important areas to consider are cultural identity, spirituality, and our past.
