The counseling relationship is a collaborative agreement in which we work together toward the achievement of your goals. My primary objective is to provide consistent support and guidance, facilitating your journey toward wellness, inner peace, and personal development as you define it. Together, we will clarify and articulate what wellness means to you, and collaboratively strive to realize that vision.
As a trauma therapist with over 10 years of experience, I specialize in addressing dual disorders, substance use disorders, PTSD, and complex trauma. My perspective on trauma emphasizes its nature as a wound that requires healing rather than merely viewing it as a disorder. I consider it a privilege to engage in a collaborative and supportive therapeutic rel
Recognizing our interdependence as human beings, I believe we flourish within rewarding and constructive relationships. I invite you to allow me the opportunity to accompany you as we navigate the complexities of your life. Together, we will work to clarify your needs and aspirations, and I will provide steadfast support throughout your personal journey.
