Announcing the provision of EMDR, ASL interpreting services, and wellness counseling at Elite Spine and Extremity Physical Therapy! I If you’ve experienced trauma and/or adversity, you may need support navigating the unpredictability's of life. I believe you have the inner strength to achieve your best sense of self. I strive to guide you toward peace and healing by exploring implementing EMDR, incorporating dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), crisis counseling, as well as addressing chronic pain, grief, and loss.

I approach each person with a deep sense of reverence & respect! My primary goal is to create a welcoming environment in which you feel safe, comfortable, and accepted for who you are; this is essential for effective therapy. I view each person as a whole rather than focusing on their isolated parts. While I recognize the individuality & uniqueness of each person's needs, problems, and concerns, I address issues with the whole person in mind, taking into account all the dimensions of human life: physical, mental, emotional, and relational. My ultimate goal in therapy is to facilitate growth into wholeness & harmonious integration

I believe that life is an important challenge. Making it the life you want takes courage. I am here to support you in creating the life you want, relationship you want, and family you want. I respect your choice to support yourself by reaching out and welcome any questions you might have before we initiate our work together.

I admire & appreciate the courage it takes to initiate & maintain therapy. Indivduals & couples call because they are stuck in unhealthy patterns & do not know how to do something different. I assist them in creating & maintaining healthy patterns. Anxiety & panic are struggles for many people. They learn to control the anxiety as opposed the anxiety controlling them. Miscommunication happens because people often listen to talk as opposed to understand. I teach clients how to communicate in the therapy room so they leave knowing how to do it. Clients regain trust so they can reconnect emotionally & sexually.

Counseling is a valuable investment in you. People seek it out for different reasons. Whatever your situation, I’ll be pleased to meet you and sort out the best ways I can support you in achieving your goals. My focus as a counselor is person-centered, trauma- informed and strengths-based. Those are social work terms that mean I want to understand you and your unique story to help you use and build on strengths you might not even know you already have so you can have the life you want. The types of counseling I have special training in can be used to help in a variety of situations. Let’s get together to see what we can figure out.

I use humor and a lighthearted approach, when appropriate, to bring a sense of comfort and ease to sessions.
