Through great pain comes better awareness and understanding about ourselves and the world around us. My journey as a counselor began during my experience with war deployments, which inspired my search to find ways to help others who are hurting. After completing my Master's degrees in Couples and Family Counseling, I have worked extensively with the court system, with families in need, and with individuals of all ages. My other passion in life is speaking and learning more Spanish. I offer therapy sessions to adults, children, families, and couples. I am a certified hypnotherapist.
I have advanced training in play therapy, which provides a way to communicate with children/adults who find classical "talk therapy" to be difficult. I enjoy using creative means to connect with clients and their families. Serving active duty soldiers, veterans, and their families is also extremely important to me.
Email me to set an appointment. I offer late appointments on W/F. For emergencies, call 911 and proceed to nearest emergency room. Dialing 988 is also available for mental health crises. If you are under 18, written parental consent must be given before any therapy services can begin.
