I am a trauma and attachment therapist working with children, adolescents, adults, and families utilizing: EMDR, Sandplay, Parts Work, Intensive Therapy Sessions, TF-CBT, Attachment, Regulation, and Competency (ARC), Family Therapy, Brainspotting, and Theraplay.
Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others? Do you lack feelings of safety in your life? Maybe you feel like nobody understands your pain or fear. Having a lack of trust in yourself, others, or the world can make reaching out for help immensely difficult. If you are reading this, you have taken a brave first step. Although therapy may seem intimidating, my approach focuses on your felt safety; between us, and within yourself. I have many therapeutic techniques to help you, but from my experience, the therapeutic relationship is the most powerful tool towards healing.

Life is a journey and does not come with a manual. I enjoy working with people of any age, sex, race, cultural, religious, gender identity, and socioeconomic background who are committed to improving their lives and are willing to engage in the process of change. Someone who shows up and does the work. I have much experience in helping people make lifestyle changes that involve not just leaving the problem behaviors and feelings behind, but also understanding triggers, being aware of their presence, changing their thinking, and eventually their choices.

Life is full of ups and downs that can be overwhelming at times. While learning to manage and adapt is important to personal growth, so is having someone walk that journey with you. I base my therapeutic approach around building a solid foundation of trust and acceptance with my clients. I value individuality and will encourage first and foremost that you accept “you as you” and not what today’s societal norms tell you what you should or shouldn’t be. I look forward to working with you and/or your family and being a resource to help you continue your journey.

My ideal client has been through some really hard stuff, and knows what it is like to struggle through the pain. They are seeking therapy because they need support to overcome obstacles in their painful memories and/or in their current relationships - romantic, familial or vocational. They want their counselor to really see and value their individuality and autonomy, as well as the ways they are connected to the world around them. In addition to my work as a therapist, I served in the Arkansas Army National Guard for 10 years. I am really passionate about helping active duty military personnel and Veterans.

Sandplay Therapists
What problems are best treated with sandplay therapy?
Research has examined this therapy’s utility in young people and found positive results. It has been shown to be useful for those who suffer from autism, attention deficit disorder, anxiety, and or aggressive behavior. Children who have suffered abuse, neglect, or trauma have also seen improvement through this therapy. Abused children are often fearful and anxious about their safety, making verbal communication more difficult.
Is sandplay therapy suitable for children and teenagers?
Children and adolescents are good candidates for sandplay therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts, let alone the emotions they are experiencing. Through this play therapy, they will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Is sandplay suitable for adults?
This type of therapy can be useful for adults who have difficulties expressing themselves. People who have suffered neurological changes after a brain injury or because of a traumatic event might be good candidates for this therapy. In fact, anything that has had an effect on the brain, such as substance abuse, can make non-verbal sandplay a valuable option.
Does sandplay therapy work?
There have been studies on the effectiveness of sandplay therapy, and it appears to improve difficult behaviors in children. It may also enhance self-esteem and lessen feelings of physical anxiety as well as hypersensitivity. This type of therapy is based on non-verbal communication and may feel less threatening to the individual.
