Are you struggling to connect with others? Has the family fighting become too much to bare? Do you have things unprocessed in your story? Have you reached your max capacity for handling daily life? Look no further! Help is here! I create a safe space to process unresolved issues in your story. We all need help from time to time. True bravery is asking for the help and allowing someone to help you, even through the most difficult times in your life. Life is sweeter when you are connected with our community. Don't be afraid to reach out! Don't be afraid to ask for help! You're so worth it!
I counsel from an integrated approach and biblical worldview (open to other religions too). I have skills in Story Informed Trauma Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, EMDR, Premarital and Play Therapy. I also have skills in working with trauma, PTSD, and marriage and couples issues. I have interests in Animal-assisted therapy and Animal-assisted play therapy.
In counseling, I emphasize the therapeutic alliance that is built between the client and the counselor through: a warm positive regard, empathy, acceptance, encouragement, transparency, and empowering the client through the treatment process. I love helping others. You don't have to suffer in silence. I look forward to helping you be the best version of you.

I am not in the business of band-aiding. I want to help you dig deep into the root of issues going on. During our first few sessions, I will be gathering background information and making sure you have the coping skills to help us dive deep into the issues at hand. After about a month or so clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms.

I like to use a strengths based approach coupled with my trauma informed background. As I listen to your story I do so with a trauma lens. I will help you to challenge your thinking, process negative feelings, and work through the difficult pieces of your story. We will look closely at how your thoughts affect your emotions, feelings, and experiences.
