Does it feel like your body and mind are stuck in anxiety, depression, or past trauma? It doesn’t have to feel this way. I am here to help you release what’s weighing you down and step into a calmer, more empowered version of yourself.

I am trained to incorporate evidence based modalities including EMDR and ITR into therapy for quick trauma healing and recovery. I work with kiddos as young as 5, teenagers, adults and couples.

Now is the time to put yourself first! Constantly taking care of everyone else's needs can take a toll. Finding the right time to say "no" to others never seems to come; meanwhile, life passes you by, and your needs are unfulfilled. Now is the time to listen to that inner voice and get the support you have needed for quite some time. Together, we will address your trauma and help you face what you have been avoiding. We will engage in empowering practices to enhance your self-esteem and address the issues holding you back from living the life you have long wanted.

I would love an opportunity to walk with you through the trials you are facing. You are unique, and should choose someone whose approach and values are a good fit. Your family, friends, and faith can be sources of great support, but also of deep pain at times. The way through may not be easy, but there IS HOPE! When life seems to be falling apart, you need a safe place to share your burdens and find that grace, mercy, and reconciliation are more than just words. I consider my office a "toxic waste dump"... and God recycles!

At times we all face things that can feel challenging, insurmountable, or overwhelming. I view therapy as a space where my clients can share their experiences and explore patterns where they may be feeling stuck. I am passionate about helping clients work through this stuckness and detangle obstacles that may be standing in the way of the goals you desire to achieve. I recognize that taking the step to seek therapy can feel vulnerable and I am intentional about providing a nonjudgmental space as we work together in addressing the challenges that bring you in.

My ideal clients are adults who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, grief, or the lasting effects of difficult life experiences. Many feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or stuck in patterns they can't seem to change. They are people of faith who desire to integrate their Christian beliefs into the therapeutic process as they pursue healing and growth.
I use a trauma-focused approach that integrates EMDR, parts work, and somatic techniques that foster emotional regulation, resilience, deeper self-awareness, and lasting healing while honoring the role of faith in the journey toward wholeness.
