The counseling relationship is an agreement we enter into together; it is a collaborative relationship where, as a team, we work toward your goal. My aim is to be a source of support and guidance to help you reach wellness, inner peace, healing, and in becoming your best self as you see it. I will support you in defining what wellness looks like and means to you and together we can work to achieve that vision.
I am a trauma therapist with over 10 years of experience with dual disorders, substance use disorders, PTSD and specialize in complex trauma. My view of trauma isn't that it's disorder but a wound that needs healing. As a person centered therapist I feel honored to enter into a helping, collaborate relationship with my clients.
As human beings, we're interdependent and thrive when we are in rewarding, constructive, and supportive relationships. I invite you to allow me to enter your world for a while. I will walk beside you as we explore the hills and valleys of your life. Together we'll work to clarify your needs and goals and I will support you throughout your personal process.
