Hello, and Congrats on taking your first step towards self-improvement! My main approaches are cognitive and trauma therapies. Our thoughts, our beliefs, and even our inner voice strongly shape our emotions. When unfortunate events happen in our lives, we try our best to make sense of these events and what our lives have now become. As we adjust our thoughts and beliefs, our emotions have to follow. I combine CBT, trauma therapy, brief/solution focused, and EMDR. I work with traumas, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, toxic work places, toxic relationships, adjusting to changes in life, and low self confidence.

"The past affects the present, even without our being aware of it." -Francine Shapiro- Whether we are aware or not, distressing events we have experienced can be negatively affecting our day to day lives. Trauma and stress can leave us feeling alone, broken, on edge, angry, or sad. You have taken the first step towards your growth and healing by exploring therapy.

Trauma can create a feeling within us that others won't accept us, see us or feel what we feel. It can leave us feeling scared, alone and judged. Life stressors can develop creating a mountain that seems too big to climb. Trauma can create a space where you don't have the words to describe what your are feeling and experiencing. You don't have to have the answers. Therapy is a journey of discovery and an experience of acceptance and safety. Healing occurs when we recognize where we have been and create new paths for our lives. I accompany people on their journey towards healing.

Every journey is different, I'm here to help you along the way and identify your needs, wants and coping skills. You already have strengths, you just may need some help identifying them!

The process of empowerment through self-discovery was one of the greatest gifts I gave myself and is one of my primary goals as a therapist. I assist clients with discovering strength by working through the emotions and negative experiences that have left them feeling lost, unworthy, and/or defeated. I want clients to know they are not alone and that past or present circumstances do not have to define who they are or who they want to be. Change is not easy, yet within conscious effort, introspection, and clarity, exists the power for clients to direct their lives.

Welcome! Taking the first step in seeking therapy can be daunting, so I am glad you're here. The ups and downs of life can be complicated, unpredictable and challenging to navigate so I believe finding a therapist shouldn't be. I strive to meet my clients where they're at in their own process, to be transparent, to design individualized goals, and to support clients navigating life's challenges through a creative, compassionate, and collaborative approach to therapy.

I value creating a safe environment for clients from all walks of life to explore their innermost thoughts and emotions.

"Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary" (Fred Rogers). Taking care of your mental health is often the hardest but most valuable work you’ll ever do. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling to express themselves in healthy or effective ways, who have been through painful experiences, or who need to find new ways to cope.
