Accepting new clients! I work with individuals, couples, and families, providing effective, practical support to help navigate life’s challenges and build stronger connections. I specialize in supporting kids 10 yrs +, moms, and families using a neurobiological approach to create meaningful, lasting change. I’m trained in EMDR for trauma/PTSD, CBT and DBT for shifting unhelpful thought patterns, PACT for strengthening couples, and restorative justice models for families. Whether you’re seeking relief from stress, healing from past experiences, or deeper connection with loved ones, I provide a safe, supportive space for growth.

Specialties: - Adolescents - Teen Technology Addiction - Postpartum Depression and Parenting - Anxiety and Depression- Imposter Syndrome- Parenting- Mothers-EMDR, Mentalization Based Narrative Exposure Therapy (MBNET), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy)

I start with the clear understanding that the back bone of therapy is the client-therapist relationship- not my training or experience, but how I make you feel. This is why I encourage you to first contact me for a free 20 min consultation to see if we are a good fit. More information on my website: Alton Counseling and Consulting

As a mother I am passionate about showing up for other mothers in all stages of life and circumstance- being there for your children means showing up for yourself! While I have extensive training working with survivors of domestic and sexual assault, I work with everyday conflict as well. I love using EMDR to resolve old patterns or stuck spots.

Because I have training in multiple evidence based clinical therapeutic modalities as well as yoga, mindfulness, restorative justice and eco therapy, I tend to blend my experience based on who is in front of me. This allows for a unique and individualized plan that can follow the time frame that is needed. No session is the same, every day is a new opportunity and change is possible.
