Trauma has a way of rendering us powerless by making us believe lies about ourselves. We begin to live small and feel as if we have no voice. Trauma is not just in the mind, but also accumulated in the body. My desire is to help clients not only heal their hearts, but restore health and healing to the mind and body as well. I am a licensed master social worker with a masters in pastoral counseling. I am also certified in trauma sensitive yoga and health coaching. I have a diploma in nutrition. I believe all three aspects of a person should be integrated for optimal healing to take place - body, soul, spirit.

Problems come in all different varieties whether interpersonally related or as a result of our environment. These issues may deeply affect our self-image, including how we view the world and act towards others around us. These problems can even impact the stories we tell about ourselves. Some people may believe that their problems may never go away or that they are stuck with them. I believe that this does not have to be the case. With the proper time and support, I think that individuals can draw strength from within themselves to rewrite their stories.

"I provide a safe, warm, nonjudgmental environment that embraces change. I provide an empathic and supportive approach which integrates psychodynamic and psychoanalytic techniques in order to help clients not only reduce symptoms, but to also explore and understand the unmet needs that have driven the behavior. I help clients build upon their strengths to help empower them. Clients need to understand that they are not having a breakdown, but a break through. The symptoms your are experiencing are normal based on a abnormal experiences. Through assessments and sessions I create a specialized treatment plan.

I love hearing client’s unique stories and walking with them through whatever life brings their way.
