Therapy is a journey to embrace our authentic selves, no matter our back story. Problems that we struggle with do not form our whole identity and are usually adaptations that were originally protective strategies. My approach combines many different modalities that help with panic attacks, anxiety, depression, and PTSD, as well as problems caused by addiction. I have limited in-person availability, however, I have found that telehealth can be just as effective as in-person counseling in many cases. My telehealth clients also have first priority for booking in person appointments as they become available. Free consultation available.
I have completed my training to be a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and have almost completed the certification process. Somatic Experiencing helps to heal panic, anxiety, and trauma by integrating the nervous system into the healing process. My emphasis is on healing from, as opposed to coping with, symptoms.
Being a psychotherapist is a joy to me. If you decide to work with me, my aim is to honor your process and to be present with the concerns you bring to our sessions. In my 'other' life, I am an avid mountain bike rider. My husband and I have 2 cats and 2 dogs. I love the outdoors, family, animals, music, and the arts.
