Are experiences with trauma keeping you stuck in the past and interfering with your quality of life? Do you find yourself trapped in harmful patterns that prevent you from having meaningful relationships? Are you constantly seeking to matter, feeling not good enough, or driven towards perfection? Working through these issues can be challenging and provoke tremendous distress. I cannot promise this process will be easy, but I can confidently say that there is hope for the future. As a licensed psychotherapist, I strive to create a therapeutic alliance that can be used as a vehicle for recovery and growth.

Life can feel especially challenging if your journey has taken you on a path outside of the social norms. People who have experienced life in the military, those who deal with depression & anxiety, couples who are struggling in their relationships, and people of faith can often feel secluded. As a counselor I strive to normalize life experiences and assist in navigating the situations that my clients encounter. My goal is to provide a space for hope, strength, and growth.
