I have focused my career on providing services and working with clients suffering from various forms of trauma. I work with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and adult survivors of childhood abuse. My clients are resilient people who are willing to make changes in their lives by making the choices to put themselves first in their lives, making healthy decisions for themselves, and work on their own self worth. My clients are folks who embrace their humanness and gather the courage to work through their toxic emotions such as shame and guilt that hold them back.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with individuals, couples, and families dealing with a variety of issues.
As Brene Brown said, "Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are". I believe that a healthy mind is the key to embracing our true selves. Engaging in psychotherapy is the first step to bravely honoring your needs and accepting yourself. It is my pleasure to walk that journey with you.

I'm passionate about giving clients the info and resources they need to better understand their emotions, nervous system, and relationship dynamics.
Most of my clients are individuals & couples needing support for relationship stressors, family conflict, emotion regulation, and neurodiversity (executive dysfunction, sensory sensitivities, procrastination, autistic meltdowns, rigid thinking, interpersonal dynamics). Couples, let's learn the dance we're stuck in and figure out how to finally change it.

Religious Trauma Syndrome (RTS) can look like other disorders – PTSD, clinical depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders (i.e. hoarding or social anxiety), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), borderline personality disorder, an unhealthy relationship with food, sexual or relationship dysfunctions, suicidal ideation, alcohol or drug addiction.
You are trying to escape the control of a fundamentalist faith community/lifestyle, that holds great personal meaning to you; but you’re conflicted about leaving the dogmatic, authoritarian belief system in which you find yourself. You want to make sense of the damage that has been done by indoctrination. Or perhaps you experienced chronic abuse in a harmful religion and are trying to sever your connection to the faith, but you have no idea how to go about it? Have you experienced confusion, inability to think critically and have negative beliefs about yourself? You may be experiencing Religious Trauma Syndrome.
