As a Marriage and Family therapist, I believe that everyone is special and unique. That is why I provide individualized service to those that seek my services. I feel that it is important for you to feel that you are being heard and understood and that you gain value from therapy.

I welcome any individual, couple, and/or family who are willing to do some solution focused work to bring some freedom, hope, and joy. I use a variety of tools (forms of therapy) and see the best results when there is motivation to change. My wheel house is related to marital, parental, anxiety and depressive challenges, trauma(s), and/or personal crisis needing an intervention. I enjoy coaching and facilitating the process for a client to live fully in the present, free of any self-limiting beliefs or behavior patterns that no longer serve you well. I like to consider myself a hope dispenser.

Is your child having trouble in school? Trouble focusing? Have outbursts? Have a hard time regulating their body or emotions? Are they always on the move? Trauma-informed occupational therapists (OT) are uniquely equipped to support these children and those who are from a variety of backgrounds. These include those who have experienced trauma, high-stress experiences, tested positive for drugs/ alcohol when born, medical trauma, exposure to abuse, or community violence. Especially those who have experienced attachment wounding through separation from their parents (foster care, adoption, or due to parent medical challenges/ jail).

When people undergo traumatic events, it is common for them to feel as if everything is falling apart. Traumatic events can leave us with feelings of sadness, anxiousness, and other types of negative emotions that can be accurately traced back to a source of central incident or series of events for recovery process. Finding this source is important because it allows safe access to reduce unwanted impulses and promotes healing of emotional and physiological responses. As a therapist, I use a variety of techniques helping people to reconnect their mind-body balance, promote authentic completeness, and gain comfort of being yourself.
