First and foremost, if you are reading this, I want you to know that I see the strength it took for you to take this step in asking for help. I work with clients ages 3 and up to navigate many life challenges - whether that is reprocessing past trauma, struggling in relationships, infertility/perinatal struggles, or navigating the day to day stressors of life. Being a member of the military/veteran community, I am also passionate about working with military/veterans and their family members on the unique challenges they face in their day to day life. I hope to help each person rewrite their story into something they can be proud of.

I have experience in private practice settings, and my strengths include working with adults and young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relational issues, life transitions, and stress.
Accepting new clients! Do you find yourself frequently overwhelmed by negative emotions or trapped in an ever-repeating cycle? You are not alone. Thoreau said, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." It does not have to stay this way. There is hope. Many times, the first step to changing your life is to say things out loud to someone you trust. I am committed to creating a safe place for you to be real with no fear of judgment. It would be my honor to come alongside you as we work through the things that have kept you stuck for too long.

Do you find yourself struggling with having high self-esteem? Maybe you recognize that you avoid pursuing specific goals? Or maybe you recognize that you limit your own opportunities because you worry about “failing” or not being “good enough”, or fear “disappointment”. Maybe you find yourself struggling to feel comfortable at work, or in your relationships. When we struggle with having healthy self esteem it can sometimes lead us to experiencing limiting beliefs about ourselves and the world around us, in which this often leads to a variety of issues that sometimes makes us feel like we are “stuck”.

Not a single one of our lives has escaped pain, hurt, rejection, loss, or other traumatic events. It’s a part of the world we live in; a part we cannot evade. Each generation, the trauma becomes more complex, as it builds on the previous generation’s unresolved trauma. It presents itself as depression, anxiety, fatigue, sleeplessness, trouble concentrating, self-destructive behaviors (including addiction), physical illness, overwhelming guilt or shame, and the inability to form healthy relationships. But it doesn’t have to continue. You can loosen the hold that it has on your life. You can end the cycle of generational trauma.
