I am passionate about helping people with a variety of issues, especially those who are/have been in abusive relationships, people who have experienced trauma/abuse, people who are in crisis, relationship issues, mood disorders, and self-esteem issues.
Meet people where they are is my motto. To me, that is the best place to start. Making the decision to begin therapy is hard and sometimes scary. My goal is to create a safe space for my clients to address whatever they are struggling with. I am non-judgmental and understand that there are reasons people are and/or feel a certain way. I love helping people understand the root of the issue and working to resolve and get healing from the issue.

Today you took the first step in seeking help and that is a brave thing. I am honored to be one of the people you are thinking about. Healing happens when we look at all of ourselves; our whole selves and our whole family system whether born to it or finding it along the way. Healing can happen at any age and it’s never too early or too late to work on the array of trauma and experiences that have gotten us to the point we are at. Through learning about how our brain works best, learning better coping skills or communication skills and regulating our nervous system we can find some peace.

Hello, glad you could make it here. Has life's challenges thrown you off course? Has the struggles of your past been affecting your present and dimming your future? Have you gotten to a point in life where you just feel stuck and not living the life that you want to live? Unfortunately, many people learn to avoid the deep rooted issues that eventually compound and manifest into unhealthy behaviors, relationship problems, anxiety, depression and addiction. This can often be tough to acknowledge and let's be real, seeking help from a professional can be a daunting and intimidating task. But it does not have to be. There is hope.

You’re the one everyone relies on—at work, in relationships, and in your family. You take care of others, think about their feelings, and try not to disappoint anyone. But inside, you feel overwhelmed, emotionally tired, and unsure of what you even need anymore. You may feel guilty for wanting more rest, space, or support. You overthink decisions, second-guess yourself, and feel pressure to “get it right.” You’re exhausted from holding everything together and want relief that actually lasts—not just another way to cope.
