You feel stuck—dissatisfied, anxious, grief or lonely. Life’s challenges, like trauma, infidelity, disrespect, depression, loneliness or grief, have left you overwhelmed and disconnected from your emotional truths. Denying these truths might feel safer, but it only deepens the struggle. You want to feel peace, rebuild trust in yourself and others, and find joy again. By reconnecting with your true emotions, you can uncover meaning, strengthen relationships, and create a life filled with purpose and authenticity. The journey starts with respecting and valuing yourself enough to take that first step.

Treatment may include processing difficult emotions and experiences, somatic work, building coping skills, and strengthening emotion regulation.
You may be seeking therapy because you’re feeling overwhelmed by trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, or the effects of chronic stress and life transitions. You might feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or unsure how to move forward. Many people come to therapy without having had a safe space to fully process their experiences. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you can begin making sense of what you’re carrying, build emotional resilience, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

It's important to find the right therapist you can trust. I have worked as a therapist for 39 years to help people heal and grow into who they really are. We are created with natural instincts to connect, trust, and love. When we experience early suffering, distress, or trauma, it disrupts our development, and we develop strategies to deal with the challenges and pain. The NARM approach assists us in coming back to our God-given nature by exploring how we adapted to survive difficult circumstances as children. This awareness helps connect us to our ability to choose how we want to respond to life and its challenges.

I use integrative , trauma focused and somatic approaches that support nervous system regulation and deep emotional processing.
I believe healing happens in relationship with ourselves and within the context of feeling safe in our body and our environment. Meaningful change is possible when we feel, safe, seen and supported. My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative and grounded in evidence based practice approaches with a strong emphasis on mind-body connections.

Taking a few new clients. In Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer there is the Island of Misfit Toys, filled with playthings that seek love but are rejected because they don’t function like traditional toys. Many people we work with feel the same way. They have beautiful personalities, but for one reason or another they just don’t “fit.” Sometimes that shows up through troubles at work or home. Sometimes people just can’t get out of bed each morning. Whatever your challenge, we want you to know you have a home. At Credo, we’ll help you embrace what is unique in you and navigate what often feels like a foreign world.

I integrate somatic approaches like EMDR, Mindfulness, Sensorimotor, Neurofeedback, hypnosis.
Our feelings are signals not problems. They get louder, or shut down, when we don’t know how to respond to them. I dedicated my life to understanding and releasing trauma. As a result, I’ve come to understand the rupture that defines the traumatic condition is collective. What we see out there, in the world, the struggle and strife, reflects the conditions we’ve all inherited. Pain is a signal that something needs attention. Our relationship with self needs attention. Of course it does. Healing is realized through Hopeful Empowered Active Living and that’s our natural state.

Using somatic and IFS-informed approaches, I help you connect with the parts of you that hold pain, protection, and wisdom—through the body, not just the mind.
You’ve done therapy before. You understand your patterns, your history, and why you are the way you are—yet something still feels stuck. Insight alone hasn’t brought the relief you hoped for. Your mind keeps working overtime, analyzing and managing, while your body holds tension, emotion, and old survival responses that never quite settle. There’s a sense that healing lives somewhere deeper than words, and that thinking your way forward isn’t enough anymore.

How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
