Healing from trauma and painful experiences doesn’t have to be done alone.
You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, numb, disconnected, or carrying intrusive thoughts and trust challenges. You might be used to holding it all together for others - while quietly feeling exhausted inside.
In our work together, you’ll find a safe, supportive space to slow down, feel understood, and begin to make sense of what you’ve been carrying. We’ll gently explore patterns, process past experiences, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded, safe, and in control.

I work with clients who struggle with mental health and/or substance use concerns. I believe dealing with life problems involves building up one's "foundation," and gaining healthier alternatives to work through day-to-day challenges. Open-mindedness and willingness are key, and I can aid in strengthening that foundation.

“It’s no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then.” “Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.” Alice, from Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. I like to ask my client's "What has happened to you" versus "What is wrong with you." "How can we get you to where you want to go?" I believe each client has their own story to tell. I am willing to join you on your path...

I strive to provide a safe space for individuals/families, children, teens, or adults to come and express themselves so we, together, can figure out the best therapeutic strategy to overcome obstacles and reach goals.
In the famous words of Eric Matthews, (BMW) “Hey bro, life’s tough, get a helmet!” If only it were that easy, right!? This statement from my old sitcom obsession hit deep the first time I heard it, but has really engraved itself deeper the older, more experienced with life I have gotten. I’ve learned very quickly and/or the hard way that walking around with a helmet on wouldn’t make much of a difference at all and would probably just add to the stressors and hardships of life. Today’s world is different. Today’s world is hard. Today’s world can be scary. But most importantly, you don’t have to go through today’s world alone.

You've been running on empty: anxious, exhaustd, depleted, and trying to hold it all together. You're the strong one - the helper, the emotional anchor, the high achiever - but your body is showing the cracks. Your hormones feel chaotic. You can't relax. The gut, sleep, and mood are all over the place, you've tried talk therapy before, but it didn't go deep enough, because your stress isn't only in your mind - it's in your body.
