For therapist's I am a New Mexico board-certified supervisor for Social Worker's and Counselors seeking supervision.

Talk therapy can be helpful, but sometimes it's just not enough. Maladaptive patterns of stress, trauma, anxiety, and depression lie in our bodies. You and I will untangle these problematic patterns to get to the root of your pain together. Our sessions will allow you to metaphorically dip your toe into the pain and then always come back to safety. In this way you are challenged to grow in a slow, safe manner.

Please email me to inquire about openings and to schedule a free consultation. I specialize in supporting people through trauma, grief, spiritual crisis, challenging life transitions, depression, and anxiety. You and I may be a good fit if you are seeking deeper meaning in your life and are motivated to plumb your depths and discover what may be holding you back from achieving your fullest potential.

If you have arrived here, likely your habitual tools that once served you are no longer working. Or perhaps they never were, and you can no longer ignore this reality. You may feel lost, hopeless, helpless, or a combination of challenging emotions. I am here to tell you that you will not feel this way forever. Through an attachment-based, IFS, and trauma-informed lens, I will assist you in addressing the root causes of your suffering. No band-aids here; I believe the only way to live free of trauma, negative self-talk, poor self-esteem, depression, anxiety, or addiction is to face the origin story head-on.

I'm not just your typical therapist. I'm your partner in this journey of self-discovery and healing. It’s my mission to create a space where you feel safe to be authentically you. I believe it’s important to not only explore our own unique stories but to also look at the systems and structures in our society which contribute to our individual and collective pain. Why? Because your mental health journey isn't just about you; it's also about creating change in a world that desperately needs more understanding and empathy.

Are you anxious, stressed, and overextended? Maybe you’re navigating relationships or family problems, having difficulty with boundaries, or thriving in some areas of life but still struggle with self-esteem. Much suffering arises from the idea that our lives can't change, there's no other way to live, that we're unlovable, or our thoughts unacceptable. I specialize in individual work with adults looking to manage/heal feelings like these, and who a interested in personal growth. As your ally and partner in the therapeutic process, we will work together to seek a deeper, compassionate understanding of what brought you here.

The core commitment of my work is to support my clients as they explore and challenge themselves in pursuit of greater truth. My approach is informed by a variety of theoretical frameworks. In every session, I collaborate with you to understand your experiences and work toward change and healing that feels meaningful to you. I cultivate a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental space for you to center and balance as you experience life’s waves. To foster this, I use presence, active listening, and mindfulness as a foundation for trauma-informed care, inner relationship focusing, and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).

As an artist, I am curious by nature. In my work as a therapist, I use creativity, insight, humor, compassion, and empathy to help my clients discover their own keys to greater freedom, peace, personal power, and self-expression. At the core of my approach is an emphasis on mindfulness and self-compassion. My theoretical orientation is based in person-centered or humanistic therapy, which operates on the assumption that each person is the expert in their own life, having within them everything that they need for growth, healing, and self-fulfillment.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I obtained my B.A. in psychology from Southern Illinois University. My interest in male/female relationships led me to pursue a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Liberty University. But I don’t only work with families. Families are comprised of two individuals who were reared in his/her family of origin from which they developed their worldview and values. Two unique individuals come together, bringing their experiences with them into the relationship. These differences can result in conflict. My job is to help them see how the conflict arose and constructive ways to resolve

Life has a way of bringing us into the curriculum of our soul. Often this can happen through a crisis, challenge, or disorienting dilemma of some kind. We find ourselves questioning, or attempting to solve with the mind a problem that has been designed for us to grow and deepen into a true self. We need a sacred place to process and dialogue in order to relate to our experiences from a place of cooperation and empowerment. Love is the way through to freedom from anxiety, depression, anger, judging and confusions.

I consider myself a Self-Healing Guide. My relationship with clients is built on respect, empathy, compassion, validation, humor and inspiration. We work Together. Much of my work is based on the knowing that you have all the answers inside yourself and my job is to help you re-learn how to access that information and heal. My job is to trust intuition and the information I receive while working with you to support you with grounded guidance & facilitation. I also offer Workshops & Retreats for women.

You know the road to peace lies both in healing the past, and also moving forward. Addressing trauma feels empowering but overwhelming. Moving forward feels exciting, but potentially superficial. You want a therapist who can do both: heal the past, and take charge of the future. But there's another issue- you don't know which therapist to pick. You've had a bad therapist in the past, or heard about terrible experiences of your friends and family. You want to make sure that whoever you start working with, is professional, responsible, and effective.

I specialize in working with women and teen girls. If you or your teenager are feeling emotionally unstable, vulnerable or anxious, I have tools and skill sets for you. In the early years of my career, I worked as a substance abuse counselor and still hold an independent license in that field. My work has evolved away from active addiction towards addressing the trauma and wounds that are associated with addictive processes. For teens that might be self harm, depression or anxiety, and for adult women it can manifest as perfectionism, anxiety, staying overly busy, or being self critical. These efforts to cope can all be upgraded!
