I provide trauma-informed care to people experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief and trauma. I work with clients on developing a treatment plan and establishing achievable goals together - YOU are the expert on yourself, right? I encourage clients to develop a toolbox with coping skills that will help deal with moments of struggle, and increase self-love and self-acceptance.
I am also a Certified Grief Informed Professional and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional - I specialize in working with people navigating losses off all kinds, not only death.
I’d love to hear from and see if we are a good fit!
