My ideal clients are adults who are tired of simply surviving — people carrying the weight of lifelong trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, or ADHD, whose pain often shows up as shame, deep grief, anger, or an overwhelming sense that life is just too much. You may have tried to push through on your own, but something keeps pulling you back. At Tree of Life Mental Health Counseling, I offer a warm, compassionate, non-judgmental space where healing is not only possible — it is expected. Together, drawing on EMDR, DBT, and mindfulness-based therapy, we’ll gently untangle what has held you back and grow toward the life you truly deserve.
My specialty is trauma — and the quiet, lasting ways it shapes every part of life. Using EMDR, I help you process and release painful memories held in the body and mind. Through DBT, we build practical skills for emotional balance. Mindfulness anchors you in the present moment. Together, these tools create a path from simply enduring to genuinely healing.
Taking the first step toward healing takes real courage — and reaching out is an act of self-compassion. You don’t have to keep carrying this weight alone. Whether you’re ready to begin or simply wondering if we’re the right fit, I warmly welcome you. This is a safe, no-pressure space, and I’m here whenever you’re ready to take that first step toward growth.
