Accepting new clients!
Life can feel heavy after trauma, loss, or overwhelming stress: but you don’t have to carry it alone. I work with teens (15+) and adults navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and life’s toughest challenges. Many of my clients are veterans, first responders, or survivors of sexual assault seeking a path to healing. You may feel stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by past events, yet long for relief, purpose, and a renewed sense of self. Together, we can work toward reclaiming your life and building the tools to face the future with strength and hope.
As a trauma informed therapist, I practice EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to help create the proper environment for your mind to heal itself. My approach is supportive, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your needs, offering practical tools to reduce distress and build resilience for the challenges ahead.
Healing is possible, and you don’t have to face it alone. I understand the courage it takes to reach out and share your story. Whether you’re a veteran, first responder, survivor, or simply someone ready for change, I will walk beside you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here to help you move forward with hope.
