Many of my clients are Law Enforcement, First Responders, Active Military, and Veterans who have been reluctant to begin therapy. My areas of specialty are anxiety & depression, trauma, alcohol/substance use, dual-diagnosis, and addressing the issues that result from these problems such as interpersonal and relationship issues, self esteem issues, and overall poor coping skills. When clients reach out to me, whether through email or voicemail, I make every attempt to return the correspondence. I want my clients to feel heard and that begins at the initial outreach. Please leave me a message, I'll respond at my earliest convenience.

Finding the right therapist can be challenging! I specialize in helping clients develop tools to overcome your barriers and empower you to live your most abundant life! Our name, Remnant Therapy is unique and so are you! A remnant is a material that has been through distress and is repurposed into something new and beautiful through the healing process. Maybe, like a remnant, because of distress in your life you have believed the lie that you're broken, worthless, or discarded. We offer you the truth, that nothing is wasted and that the deepest pain can be repurposed and redeemed into something beautiful!

Life can be challenging. Relationships, work, life transitions, and daily stress can feel overwhelming. You may find that your thoughts make it difficult to focus or keep you up at night. Maybe you feel as though you are not good enough. You might be more irritable or disconnected from others. It can be hard to enjoy the things that you used to. This can affect your relationships and your work. You are not alone. Anxiety and depression are quite prevalent, and fortunately, treatable. In therapy, we can explore patterns that may be occurring in your life and work to develop tools to help you make changes.

I enjoy working with people of all ages who are experiencing "life" & the stressors that come with it. Especially the older teen, young adult, Gen X & Millenials - life is a journey that none of us are particularly prepared for & there comes a time when a caring ear & an outside professional perspective can truly help. life happens - its how we cope with it that matters most! i work with common issues such as relationship stressors, family conflicts, school life issues, life changes, life planning, behavioral challenges, parenting stressors as well as adults struggling with career issues and in need of basic life coaching.

A major need that children, adolescents, and adults are facing now is how to navigate life throughout this pandemic. As a therapist, I meet where the client is at. I work to build a positive and safe rapport. I utilize the multi-dimensional approach which focuses on how every aspect of an individual’s life is impacted. From the person to their family, friendships and peers, school and/or work environment, to their community, and what is going on in the world. Often many times we are impaired by our lack of coping and adjusting. I assist in exploring and developing ways someone can cope healthier with difficult life circumstances.
