Childhood trauma can cripple us, it creates overpowering ‘intense’ emotions such as anxiety, depression, and anger when left unattended which begins to create physical symptoms to defend our bodies from the internal wounds. Has there ever been a time in your life where you have experienced this reaction? Are you experiencing these feelings based on current or past trauma from childhood, early teens, adolescence, adulthood, or as a senior? I aim to utilize a variety of actionable techniques to help reduce trauma related symptoms and make lasting changes in life.

I am passionate and honored to support and treat diverse populations of all ages who experience mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, stress, adjustment to life changes, and healing from trauma.

I feel that I "see" people who often feel "unseen." I help people who are exhausted, depressed and anxious from masking. Masking is attempting to reduce or hide needs and symptoms to blend in with others, usually to avoid being treated differently.

I specialize in anxiety disorders and psychological assessments for ADHD and ASD. My ideal client is someone grappling with anxiety's grip, whether it's generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, OCD, or specific phobias. They seek relief from worry and irrational fears, desiring a life unburdened by anxiety's limitations. Additionally, clients may need assessments for ADHD or ASD, wanting clarity and strategies to navigate life effectively. My role is to provide tailored support, evidence-based interventions, and a safe space for clients to reclaim control over their lives. Together, we navigate the path to a brighter future.

We tend to build shields to protect from uncomfortable and distressing thoughts and emotions because we're not taught how to manage or experience them without the feeling of drowning. Avoidance of, numbing, or collapsing into emotional storms can keep us stuck in unhelpful cycles and disconnect us from a life of vitality. It can feel impossible to get out of these cycles when our thoughts try to convince us that we're broken, stuck, or not good enough, especially when we're trying to do it alone. Sharing our struggles with someone else can help us learn to look at (instead of from) them, and then be able to see how to get unstuck.

You are at a point in your life where you're feeling off, feeling bad. Something isn't quite right. You might be depressed, lonely, unhappy about your relationships, dissatisfied about a job, or generally nervous and stressed. You may have been suffering for quite a while or maybe these feelings are newer, perhaps due to a recent event. Whatever the reason, you are here now and seeking help. Reaching out is difficult to do and can be frightening. It may feel like a risk to place your trust in someone.

In the field over twenty five years, I offer an empathetic and compassionate approach. Life can test us from time to time and we all need some support. My passion is working with adolescents, adults, couples, children of divorce and those looking to adopt. I can, also, support you through a life transition which can bring up lots of confusing emotions, including depression and anxiety.

Trauma, anxiety, and addiction can make you feel stuck. The most important step towards healing is to address the unresolved emotion inside you. Healing requires feelings. Acceptance slowly dissolves pain. When we function from the fear and scarring of our trauma, the cycles continue until we learn how to transmute that energy into love. I apply a Holistic approach that integrates physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual forms of well-being, addressing the “whole” self. Through a holistic framework tailored to your unique needs, the goal is to support you develop a deeper understanding of the self on all these levels.
