Since 2000, I have been working with people who struggle with anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. More recently, I have helping people manage traumas. Do you feel like you would like to do more with your life? Are you held back by overwhelming thoughts, and large emotions (or no emotions at all)? If so, I believe I can be helpful. I have experience helping people increase their hope, and belief in themselves. I enjoy working with couples also, and helping them feel heard, understood and appreciated. If we are a good match, I would be happy to work with you!
Therapy is all about a connection, and finding the right fit. I do my best bring my authentic self to the therapy session. I feel honored to join my clients in their journey to find hope and courage, and to get to know their authentic selves. I believe my job is to help, through compassion and acceptance, my client find their inner healing powers.
Since connection is so important, I would love to speak withy you. Check out my website at www.empoweredthroughcompassion.com or email me at empoweredthroughcompassion (at) gmail.com. Let's schedule a free time to meet, to see if you feel we are a good match.

I love to use Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I have found the integration of these models to be extremely helpful for reprocessing and healing past traumas, both big and small. These two models also integrate well with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).
