Unfortunately, painful events in life are inevitable. The good thing is that suffering from these events can be optional. Helping people to build or rebuild a life with a new "normal" through these difficult times is something I have enjoyed doing for almost 25 years. I have had the privilege of working with people by addressing a variety of issues including substance abuse and other addictions, co-occurring disorders, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationships, divorce, unresolved grief, co-dependency, and anger management to name a few. Together, we can restore the peace, serenity and confidence back in your life.

Everyone needs understanding, compassion and hope. In today's world that's hard to come by. My hope is that when you come to my office you feel that and trust that what you say is important and how you feel matters. I've created a space that feels comfortable and invites you to be able to share what brought you in and receive the hope that you can and will feel better. We will work together to figure out what's not going well and what you hope to leave with should you chose to work with me.

I have a unique style that blends multiple theories. I’m able to adapt to your needs and your style in a way that is most effective for your individuality. I am an honest, down-to-earth, funny, caring therapist. I keep it very real! I’ve been a mental health therapist for 12 years now and have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over 25 years. Does that make me sound old? Or experienced :)

Using DBT, EFT, EMDR, and person-centered care, I help clients manage anxiety, depression, birth trauma, and emotional overwhelm while building coping skills, balance, healing, and resilience.
If you don’t feel like yourself during pregnancy, postpartum, or while coping with loss or parenting, you don't need to feel like you are alone. Does this season feel harder or less joyful than you expected? Counseling can help, and I’m so glad you’re here. I work with individuals navigating pregnancy, postpartum, parenting, grief, and life transitions who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, birth trauma, mom rage, emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, or relationship changes.

My ideal clients are individuals and couples navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and relationship challenges, often rooted in past wounds. Many are seeking deeper alignment—emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. I support clients in understanding and regulating their nervous system, processing unresolved experiences, and reconnecting with truth, peace, and intentional living through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach.

Are you reliving past trauma or experiencing depression, anxiety, distress, or a general sense of feeling stuck? For over twenty-five years, I have specialized in helping clients with these as well as other life-interfering conditions. In today’s world, one can become easily overwhelmed, practice unhealthy coping skills, and develop a negative view of oneself and others. Often, we lose sight of the fact that there is a solution.

We can challenge together troubling thought patterns that vex you; anxiety that keeps you up at night, or coping skills that just aren't cutting it. Let’s process the loss you never got to face, trauma that keeps popping up, or talk about the horrors in our country. I can help you work toward gaining momentum, get back on track, or just get to know yourself better. I am here to witness your experience, but even more so I will be here to sit with you in it.
