You are at a crossroads in your life: not happy with where you are, but not sure what's next. And the unknown is kind of, well, scary. Me: A therapist who believes in the power of the therapeutic relationship. We get to know one other and get to the nitty gritty of what's at the heart of your "stuff". And we work as a team to brainstorm and create real-world solutions. This hour that we share is a sacred space, a real investment in yourself. I honor that and don't take it lightly. AND we will probably laugh a little too.
I'm trained as a marriage and family therapist. Over time I've developed interest in and expertise in treatment of post traumatic stress disorder and healing from abuse. As an eclectic practitioner, I work with techniques that best fit each person's situation versus a cookie cutter approach.
I've worked in a wide variety of settings in my 28+ years in the field, and those experiences as well as my education and personal life experiences shape me to be the practitioner I am today. I'm an empathetic listener with a great sense of humor!

I often work with people who've experienced trauma: a specific event or complex trauma with their families of origin or relationships. I provide therapy primarily using Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. After assessment, we work on helping you to go deep and tell your story, with a focus on challenging thoughts that may be keeping you "stuck", and move forward into creating your "now".
