Traumatic stress is unfortunately very common in our society, and it affects a person's mood, beliefs, and body in numerous ways. We specialize in helping people heal from trauma, whether it’s from a single major life event (such as a car accident or sexual assault) or ongoing hardship (for instance, growing up in a chaotic home environment or repeatedly having their feelings invalidated). Each of our therapists are warm and accepting, and work collaboratively with each person. Our goal is to help people move beyond merely reducing symptoms, and towards making their lives more meaningful and fulfilling.

It brings me joy to help clients regain a sense of control, move forward, or make sense of the nonsensical. Life can be ever-so-challenging and we all deserve to be unstuck. I have been a clinician for nearly 11 years and while my approaches to treatment vary, they are based on your choice, engagement, and feedback ... every step of the way.
