Many of my clients enter therapy to address the feeling of groundlessness that can occur when things fall apart. It may be an episode of significant depression or anxiety, unresolved trauma, a life changing loss such as divorce or death, or a crisis of awakening and challenging previously held understandings of the self in the world. There are many paths that take us into therapy, and I walk that path with my clients to develop a better understanding and integration to adapt to life when we find ourselves at these challenging points.
I use a trauma informed approach to my work and I am EMDR trained. I use concepts from many theoretical, philosophical, and spiritual traditions to meet my clients where they are in their own unique process. I strive to create a safe and inclusive space for all clients, and am an ally to those in the LBGTQ+ community.
In addition to my work as a counselor, I am an associate professor of mental health counseling (Bellevue University) and host a podcast focused on the intersection of mental health and spirituality (couragetobepod.com). If you feel like I would be a good fit for the work you are hoping to do, please contact me for a free email or phone consult.
