Therapy should help you get better. My goal is to help clients move through difficult situations and make changes in their lives that contribute positively to their health. While I am a certified complex trauma therapist and specialize in treating combat related PTSD, I have also helped clients struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and infidelity. As a coach, I help clients to achieve personal goals such as losing weight or managing anger. Some people are wary of seeing a therapist, but my straight forward approach and focus on finding solutions has been an attractive option for even the most hesitant clients.

Anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, and addiction hold profound lessons and opportunities for growth. Too often, we push away our deepest hurts, hoping symptoms will simply vanish. This can lead us to seek refuge in unhealthy coping mechanisms like substance use or isolation. However, awareness of our struggles marks the beginning of a transformative healing journey. By embracing the wisdom within us and connecting to something greater, we can learn to flow with life’s challenges. This journey invites healing and growth, allowing life to emerge from chaos to connection and acceptance.

Many times in life we find ourselves in painful places we never dreamed we'd be. As an adult woman with three children, ages 1, 7 and 9, I found myself in one of those places. With good counsel, I was able to not only survive, but thrive and, over time was able to heal and see beyond the pain of the past to enjoy the beauty of the present and look forward to the wonder of the future. It's been over 20 years, but I still remember what it felt like to walk into the counselor's office on that first day.
