How do you learn to accept and love yourself, letting go of shame and self-doubt, so you can become fully and authentically you? How do you overcome trauma and regulate your emotions? How do you love others and set healthy boundaries? These are questions I can help you answer. My approach is warm and affirming; l enter each session with openness, curiosity, and a trauma informed lens. While I provide clinical expertise, I honor that you are the expert on yourself, your values, and your culture. I am an active participant in sessions, viewing collaboration and consistency as key to the building a trusting therapeutic relationship.

Are you exhausted from the relentless grip of chronic aches, pains, or the weight of trauma and dissociation? Do you want to get back to enjoying the things you used to? Are you looking to work with someone who understands your LGBTQ+ identity? If you're here, you've already taken the first step towards finding relief and reclaiming control over your life. I am dedicated to fostering a collaborative relationship focused on setting goals, tracking progress, and facilitating healing. Beyond our therapy sessions, my commitment extends to actively researching resources, interventions, and personalized solutions to fit your needs.

Hello! Thanks for stopping by to check out my page. I work with couples, women, and teenagers and see a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, and relational problems/wounds. As a Christian, I also enjoy working with concerns surrounding faith and spiritual development.

If you are an adult and have experienced childhood sexual/emotional/physical abuse, an adult who was recently abused, or a person who has done their abuse work, but wants to restore sexuality, let us work together. If you are a partner who wants to understand, work through your own emotions and responses, I would like to hear from you as well. With 20 years at the Sexual Assault Center, as well as 1 year at the VA working with Military Sexual Assault, I would tell you, the path is hopeful.

The greatest privilege of our lives is to be seen, heard, and truly known by the ones we love. In the end, we are all we have. Whether it’s your partner or family member, when you feel disconnected from the one you love most, it can be extremely painful. My specialty is adult love and creating bonding experiences in couples and families. Helping people repair and reconnect after times of distress is my passion. I help couples heal their wounds from the past through emotional re-engagement and responsiveness. This allows them to move forward in a healthier way, so the past doesn’t keep sabotaging their present and future.

I work with men and women of all ages who want to be the best they can be in every role they inhabit–parent, spouse, sibling, employee, leader, friend, etc. I especially enjoy helping you learn and practice effective communication strategies, cope and work through anxious and intrusive thoughts, and engage your interpersonal relationships with confidence and ease.

Changes in life are often expected, but sometimes it hits you unexpectedly and it hits hard. Since change is a normal part of life, that can make it hard to seek help when we're having difficulty in this area. We assume that everybody else is having an easier time adjusting than we are, or feel we just need to power through on our own without support but I don't think that could be further from the truth. All of us are only human & need the invaluable resource of help, support, & encouragement. Anxiety, depression, stress, racing thoughts, fear, poor self-esteem, and other issues often get in our way of living a meaningful life.

You've already gotten through the hardest parts of your life. Now it's time to feel safe again. This is where I come in. Have you experienced trauma, but think you've moved on from it? Is your body tired all of the time and you feel mentally drained by daily life? Do you feel disconnected emotionally and not present in the moment? The truth is, the trauma you have experienced in the past is impacting your present whether you acknowledge it or not. The anger, sadness, and overwhelm is still there even though you survived it. There is life after trauma and healing is real. I can help you become more aware and empower you to thrive.

It's quite likely by the time you're reading counselor profiles you've already made countless attempts to address the concerns that are weighing heaviest on you. Though many of those solutions have either not worked or were short lived I also understand that one of the most difficult things to do in life is to reach out for help. Therefore, asking for help by seeking a counselor can be quite difficult.
