Do you feel stuck in life due to past traumas or painful life experiences? Are you struggling with substances, other compulsive behaviors, or chronic shame? Do you have insight into what's happening but still feel powerless over making changes or finding relief? I specialize in treating addiction and trauma (they often go hand in hand) and have dedicated myself to helping individuals and families grow and improve their lives. I'm skilled at working with simple trauma to complex PTSD and dissociative disorders, focusing on the various underlying and often complex emotional and personality issues that continue to cause problems.

Integrated Therapy is an approach to healing and growth that views the individual as an integrated whole...mind, body, and spirit. My journey into the counseling world and my desire to help others centers around this concept. This process centers upon viewing the individual holistically; mind, body, and spirit and is enacted by not only using traditional talk therapy, which focuses on our life story and patterns of behavior, but by looking at the system in its entirety. Together, we will look to see where this system can be improved upon in order to navigate a solution to your problems.

I can help you, individually or as a couple, with challenges like infertility, pregnancy loss, postpartum depression and anxiety, dealing with a baby in the NICU or a fetal anomaly, parenting a chronically ill child. You don't have to do this alone!

I am privileged to have worked with clients from all walks of life for over twenty years. There is nothing more powerful and impactful than the process of psychotherapy where one risks openness and vulnerability.

The therapist and patient must collaboratively seek growth.

C.H.A.R.T. your course for a better future! C - Change is challenging, difficult many times, and can be frustrating. Many people seek therapy because of feeling stuck, distressed, and see little hope for change. H - Hope - rekindling hope that with hard work positive changes can take place. A - Affirm - positive affirmation fosters a better outlook, combats self-criticism, counters negative self-talk and provides momentum. R - Resilience - change is usually uneven with possible setbacks along the way. Preparation and managing expectations can reduce impacts and discouragement so clients can stay on course.
