About
The pandemic certainly taught us that life takes unexpected turns! How, then, do we live balanced, authentic lives in the midst of intense stress, loss, and change? My goal is to help you examine, heal, grow, and gain perspective. Like peeling back layers of an onion, therapy provides clients the opportunity to see that many life events are interconnected by family patterns, past trauma, grief and loss, boundary issues, and learned coping strategies, to name a few. Therapy also gives clients opportunities to strategically prepare for the future, explore personal values and spirituality, strengthen relationships, and clarify goals.
I welcome the opportunity to partner with you in gaining skills, healing hurts, and moving forward with confidence. My counseling experience covers a variety of issues, including sexual abuse, adverse childhood experiences/trauma, depression, anxiety, relationships, communication, suicide/self-harm, spirituality, parenting, self-esteem, anger, and grief.
The journey of counseling is unique to each person, and research-supported interventions can support the navigation of your sojourn toward whole-hearted living. Whether you’re new to therapy or would like to continue work you’ve already begun, I will provide a safe environment for you to share, process, emote, create, and find meaning.
