I view counseling as walking down the hallway of life and trying to close the doors to one's past. As one walks down the hallway, one must walk into each room and decide what to hold on to and what to let go of. I understands that seeking therapy can be really difficult and enjoys using humor when appropriate. I am compassionate therapist at times but can be blunt. I do not want to waste your time or money therefore I will work hard with you to come up with a treatment plan that works best. My background includes working on a National Burn unit, ICU, ER, Psychiatric hospital, and managing a residential group home.

Are you struggling with trauma, depression, or anxiety? These conditions are treatable. With effective EMDR therapy, we can alleviate your pain and foster transformative growth. As your therapist, I’ll encourage you to step beyond your comfort zone and focus on true healing—what EMDR therapists call “adaptive resolution.” Together, we’ll design a structured treatment plan with a clear beginning, middle, and end to achieve meaningful and lasting change. My EMDR expertise has helped many clients, including those who once believed their issues were untreatable.

My approach to therapy begins with warmth, empathy & openness. Through frequent check-ins & opportunities for feedback, I encourage clients to lead the therapeutic process & communicate what’s most important to them, what they are interested in learning, what’s working & what is not working. A common reason that clients seek therapy is assistance with processing distressing experiences & emotions. My most important task with these (and all) clients is normalizing & validating these emotions as part of the human experience & teaching skills that increase awareness, tolerance & integration of these emotions.

Finding the right support for your child can be a difficult and overwhelming task. Do you have questions about your student's academic ability or if their needs are being appropriately met in school? Students who have learning differences such as gifted and talented, twice exceptional, dyslexia and other learning disabilities, may not always receive what they need both academically and social emotionally. As a trained and nationally certified school psychologist, I have a thorough understanding of how children process information, barriers to learning, appropriate interventions and supports offered in the schools.

My clients experience a whirlwind of speed and stress. Many feel stuck and seek comfort in external solutions like excessive work, toxic relationships, or substances, only to find these approaches lacking. They face the challenge of pausing to understand and address their internal needs, which can seem paradoxical. How do you slow down when there is so much to do? This struggle leads to increased stress, anxiety, and a pervasive sense of dissatisfaction with life. However, there is a way through all of this.

Currently full - not accepting new clients. Life satisfaction is most closely correlated to the quality of relationships you have with others & most importantly, the quality of relationship you have with yourself. These can both be improved by better understanding your past & adapting how you respond in the present. Together, we practice new ways of experiencing difficult emotions to make them more manageable & less threatening. We will explore & better understand the stories you hold of who you ARE, who you SHOULD be, & how these formed over time which can result in increased self-understanding & self-compassion.

Creating a safe environment is where I begin. I see therapy as a collaborative process that can lead you toward a greater capacity for self-awareness, trust, clarity, a sense of meaning and freedom. Life gives us surprising obstacles, which can make us feel stuck, depressed, alone or scared. With therapeutic presence, creativity and guidance, we can change our relationship to obstacles and transform. Our darkest point may mark the moment we realize we want to change. I use yoga and creative writing in my practice, and have training in mindfulness/somatic approaches, gestalt therapy, family systems, DBT, & depth psychology.

As a counselor, I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount and creating a safe space where clients feel comfortable and seen is my priority. I understand that making the decision to come to therapy can often be difficult, and that life often surprises us with what we are expected to handle. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and it is my role to provide guidance and encouragement as we make sense of your story. I love working with clients who are seeking some direction and focused support on how to discover the best versions of themselves.
