Life presents a journey for us all to take. Whether it allows for hills or valleys, we have to decide how each defines our life. Therapy becomes our first step in taking back control and leaning into the joy that comes with healing. Wherever you are on your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you and conquer what’s to come. You’ve made the difficult decision to no longer allow shame to prevent you from embracing vulnerability. Healing can be difficult, but if given the opportunity, I will hold space for who you are. Not who you have become due to the challenges you’ve faced but who you are at your core.

Sometimes our minds get the best of us, creating unhelpful stories that leave us feeling overwhelmed and seemingly without hope. Reaching out for help in these times can be a difficult but strong first step because problems gain power in isolation and can keep us from thriving. I believe that our lives are made up of stories known through our relationships and community. Some of these narratives have provided us with connection, health, and meaning, while others have disempowered us and left us feeling stuck. Exploring how you feel about these experiences and relationships can provide us roadmaps to your unique healing journey.

As a trauma survivor on a personal healing journey, I learned how to help others simultaneously. Healing was hard work, but finding the right therapist was a huge piece of the puzzle. Traditional therapy fails so many trauma survivors. I aim to go beyond talk therapy to find the right modality for each unique client. It is a passion of mine to work with clients who face problems of trauma, stress, coping with depression, and anxiety such as military veterans, and survivors of abuse.

I am not the expert on the lives of my clients nor do I expect them to have all the answers regarding why they do the things they do, what function certain behaviors serve, or identify what an emotional consequence resulted from any number of situations. I strive to promote self-care, self-compassion, and a sense of curiosity. I am a trauma therapist and have adopted a rather broad definition of trauma.
