Empowering individuals and families to better themselves through validation and empathy has always been a passion of mine for the past 18 years professionally. It is a journey to mental wellness. I view therapy as a partnership between client and therapist. Together, I want to help you cope with past traumas, decrease anxiety/depression and stabilize your mind to improve your quality of life. Through a relational/friendly style; I want you to experience nonjudgement & feel comfortable, respected, supported and appropriately challenged when needed. You are important; you can feel differently; you are not alone on this journey.
I am a trauma therapist and evidenced based modalities including Accelerated Resolution Therapy. I also have a special interest working with adolescents and young adults. I enjoy helping this age group transition to the next phase of life. Women's issues are a priority; including perinatal mental health treatment. Mindfulness, EMDR, and DBT are offered.
Thank you for reviewing my profile. I expanded to group practice, Beautiful Mind Counseling Services, LLC. We have openings and if I personally do not have an opening I will help connect you with one of our clinicians. Please email vs. call for appointments. I would love the opportunity to work with you and assist you to feel like you again!
