Are you feeling overwhelmed and frustrated? Are you feeling "stuck" in a negative pattern in your relationship? Counseling can help in sorting out current struggles and developing and practicing new strategies to help cope with current emotions, relationships, and life situations. Counseling assists with healing and achieving goals you have for yourself and for your relationships. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, abuse/trauma, couple/family relationships, relationship struggles, work/life balance, separation/divorce, loss/grief, parenting, self-esteem, and self-injury.

Areas of growth include self esteem building, confidence, independence, decision making skills, ability to emotion regulate, and more.
Now doing CPRT! I have a huge and growing passion for play therapy. The value of play in a child’s life cannot be dimmed down to a number, but can be seen to affect their development, self esteem, boundaries, confidence levels, and so much more. Using a fantastic playroom just for your child, with toys hand picked for their needs, I believe that they are capable of healing from within given the right tools and a little help from adults. Play Therapy focuses on children starting at age 4 through adolescence and uses scaffolding as they grow and learn how to express and identify confusing emotions that may come up through adversity.

I’m so glad you’re here. It means that some courageous part of you knows that you deserve more. More support, more connection, more peace, more joy. I believe that healing happens when we can fully connect with ourselves and others. But for many of us, past hurts, trauma, and life experiences make that easier said than done. Many of us never learned how to process overwhelming or uncomfortable emotions growing up, so we came up with our own, not-so-healthy ways to get by. It can get frustrating when we’re ready for something new and better in our life but the same patterns and cycles keep showing up.
