As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, my goal is to help people become the best version of themselves. No matter your past, I believe with the appropriate information, training and teaching your life can improve. I desire to help people experience transformation and restoration that will last. I have experience working with children, individuals and couples. I subscribe to a family systems approach when working with children and have found it is most beneficial to include parents and siblings in treatment. I also have a passion to help people who have experienced trauma and am trained in EMDR.

I don't have a specific client that is "ideal" as every client has their own unique history and backstory. I definitely look forward to meeting with people who are interested in self-growth but I also enjoy helping people get to the point to where the may be ready to work on their self-growth. If you are reading this, you would probably be the ideal client since you have taken the first step in just having that thought in your head about maybe it is time to give yourself the love you give to others and focusing on yourself.

Trauma: Trauma is part of the human condition, and past trauma will drive future behavioral choices. We will work on the trauma that is causing poor symptomology. Brainspotting is cutting-edge trauma treatment can speed up the healing process, so that life's previous experiences can stop controlling your present negative actions. (See https://www.recoveryhill.info/brainspotting-trauma-therapy to find out more). The act of researching for help makes the correct assumption that your life matters! My practice, Recovery Hill, specializes with Trauma & Substance Abuse, from adolescents to seniors, all genders, Vets & First Responders.

I have had the honor of working with adults/couples that have been wounded as children which can create wounded attachment patterns in their present life(s). Because these wounds can be experienced so young, an individual can be unaware of the pain and anger these unhealthy patterns bring to their present lives/relationships. The courageous adults that I have been privileged to support and help heal from situations of early trauma/abuse, whether it be inconsistent care-taking, abandonment, rejection, etc., have achieved success in facing all of life's challenges as a "whole" self versus a "partial" self.

My ideal client is any person(s) desiring to be a better person today than yesterday. I have extensive background working with men, women, teenagers, families, college-based students, athletes (collegiate and professional) seeking psycho-therapeutic intervention in areas, but not limited to anxiety, grief and loss processing, marriage counseling, chemical dependency, athletic consulting, performance-based psychology, depression, career counseling, anger management, and group counseling. A wide range of therapeutic modalities are practiced.
