Throughout my career I have focused on working with clients from a trauma-informed perspective, helping clients simultaneously work toward the seemingly opposite goals of acceptance of what is and changing what is possible. I prioritize meeting clients where they are, creating a space that enhances their ability to experience and process emotions, and offering skills to create positive change in their lives that are consistent with their own goals and values, all while building a strong therapy relationship.

Looking for answers? Seeking a solution for you or your loved one? Learning difficulties, focus problems, emotional challenges or feeling as though you or your loved one aren’t living up to potential? Let’s have a conversation to determine whether a psychological assessment or therapy will help you get closer to your goals. While the new school year brings a fresh start and great intentions, it can often be very frustrating when that is not enough to create lasting change. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Learning Disabilities, and Psychological Disorders often adversely impact one’s ability to function and thrive. When these challenges are not adequately addressed, it can be disheartening when so much potential is hidden beneath the disorders.

The unpredictability of our world requires the ability to pivot. A pivot can be defined as a fundamental change in your direction. It requires attention, persistence, and the ability to re-evaluate a new approach when factors change and shift. Although life’s pivotal moments can be painful, they also create an opportunity to do just that.
Major life changes such as divorce, career shifts, relocation, or entering a new phase of life can be overwhelming. It is possible to pivot to a path that leads to true fulfillment. This concept is what we believe plants the seeds for post traumatic growth. We focus on that. We focus on results.

Hello! I’ve worked as a licensed counselor since 2017, with previous experience as a social worker. My focus is working with adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depressive symptoms, relational difficulties, family issues, substance use, and severe mental illnesses. My theoretical orientation is an integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Behavioral Therapy (SFBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Mindfulness. I have learned that no two people are the same and that everyone must be treated individually and holistically.

I work with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges—whether it’s stress, anxiety, relationship issues, or a sense of being “stuck.” My ideal client is someone who is ready to make a change but may not know exactly where to start. They may struggle with feelings of self-doubt, confusion, or a lack of clarity in their direction. Often, these individuals are coping with big life transitions, balancing responsibilities, or seeking meaning in their lives. If you're feeling disconnected from yourself or others, or if you’ve been carrying emotional burdens for too long, I’m here to help you navigate through it.

I help women and youth tackle issues with trauma, stress/anxiety and life transitions. We live in a world of uncertainty and at times we find ourselves greatly overwhelmed by it. The difficult truth is uncertainty does'nt disappear. Best case scenario is we become more accepting of the uncertainty that we can’t change and more skilled at managing the uncertainty that’s ours to manage.
