I am interested in you. I believe that every individual has the strength and endurance to make it through whatever unfolds in their life. Stages and seasons of life bring all kinds of difficulties and struggles. Whether you need to work through past trauma or present circumstances, I want to help you find the peace and quality of life you desire. I offer a safe space to explore and identify thoughts, learn to regulate emotions, and assist an individual or group in coping with the stress of everyday life.
I use Cognitive and Dialectical Behavior Therapy through a trauma-sensitive lens to assist in working through emotions. Upon request, I am trained in yoga therapy and EMDR which can aid in identifying and regulating emotions held within the body. I use play therapy principles when counseling children and adolescents.
If you are struggling with feeling alone or isolated, please know that there are counselors and therapists ready and waiting to help you stand and walk on this journey. I want you to be able to share in a nonjudgemental environment while working toward your inner strength. Call today and we can make a plan for your individual needs.

I believe that connecting our mind and body is one of the most important aspects of healing. By creating an environment of curiosity, compassion and support, I approach therapy from a strengths based healing perspective. I use a variety of cognitive and dialectical behavior approaches to support a client through the embodied healing process.

I have a special interest in the area of complex trauma and how individuals process trauma in their mind, body and spirit. Life is one of exploration and my goal is to help people find their strength, balance and peace in the journey. I teach mindfulness and observation to regulate mood and emotions. I explore previous coping mechanisms and provide education on how to improve coping skills.
