Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. As a retired Navy Veteran I know all too well the phrase, "Suck It Up," frequently heard when concerns or hardships were raised. Today, you do not need to handle life's challenges alone. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, difficult transitions, emotional exhaustion, or a sense of being stuck, please know that help is available. I am here to walk alongside you as you pursue a more fulfilling, inspired life. The choice for change lies within you—don’t let past trauma or hardship dictate your future. Take the first step: reach out, and let's move forward together.
As your therapist and coach, my focus is to assist you in overcoming the stuck points in your life and embracing the possibilities ahead. I draw from an eclectic set of approaches, including grief and loss specialization, trauma-informed therapy, DBT, CBT, ACT, and relational healing to support you on your healing journey.
Transform your life by releasing the hold your past has on your present and future. I emphasize the importance of your overall wellness, the strength found in community, and the importance of setting healthy boundaries in all your relationships. My approach is relaxed, warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental, ensuring a space where you can truly be yourself.
