I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist proving therapy for children and adults, with a focus on military families.
My goal is to challenge problematic narratives by helping clients uncover their strengths, highlighting their true capabilities. I aim to help my clients see that they are not the problem; the problem is the problem.

I have 14 years experience working with former inmates adjusting back to life, CPS Investigations and family reunification, and community mental health helping those with both mental health and substance abuse.
Sometimes, we find ourselves in life struggling with what we should do next and how to accomplish this. Often times, we can find ourselves in a dark place in which there seems to be no light at the end, possibly no hope of ever seeing light again. Some struggle with addiction, loss, and depression and are afraid to seek out help to manage the disease of addiction as well as loss. Often, we are afraid to reach out for help because we do not want to be embarrassed or judged by others. In the end, you want to be able to see the light and live a life free of the difficulty that you may have.

I utilize a narrative and strength-based approach to working with individuals and couples or families, examining each person's unique perspective of the problem situation and how it impacts their lives as well as the family unit as a whole.
The clients I work with often come to me feeling as though they are alone in their struggles and need someone to reassure them that they have the capabilities and strengths within them to work through their circumstances and grow as individuals in the process.
