I believe that everyone is capable of healing, growth, and resiliency. Although life is constantly changing and moving, I believe that each person can achieve the life and level of happiness they desire through self-exploration and a deeper look into their experiences. I work from an experiential based, relational/attachment model to support your healing journey and to strengthen self-awareness. I use a variety of modalities through a trauma-informed perspective, including Art Therapy, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing.

Do you want to change the way you feel or the behavior patterns that don't work for you? My goal is to provide hope and encouragement, helping those who feel lost to discover a renewed sense of purpose and direction. My approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a well-established method that focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. By highlighting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learning how to replace these patterns with healthier, more productive ways of thinking and acting, people are able to make lasting changes in their lives.

Do you feel a lack of connection with self and others? I recognize that life can be challenging for many reasons and that asking for help and support is difficult. Self-reflection and developing coping skills alone can seem foreign and daunting, the good news is--you don't have to do it alone. My goal is to assist people in exploring interpersonal issues and ways to remove barriers, such as substance use and self-deprecating tendencies.

There are times in life when it is difficult to believe that we will ever reach our dreams, hopes, goals, or have the future for which we had hoped. We may be feeling stuck, lonely, and unable to develop or access our wisdom and strengths. Too often, challenging life situations or decisions made in the past tend to have a lasting effect on our lives. I believe that everyone has the capacity to grow, change and heal our relationships with ourselves, our significant others, and those around us.

However, when we exhaust our coping skills, or past events and memories become too overwhelming, we need help.
