Although, I am trained and experienced in working with many types of clinical issues, I consider myself specialized in depression, trauma, and anxiety.
Frankel wrote, "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." I bring health, peace, and strength to people's lives. The path of personal change is done faster and smoother when traveled with a mentor. I've worked in the behavioral health field since 2006. I've worked closely with my clients to help create positive changes. I've done this by helping them set goals and develop the needed skills to achieve them, and by helping them cultivate their hidden strengths. I also provide educational training.

Using a trauma-informed approach I can help with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other mental health issues.
Brené Brown said “We don’t have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to.” Life can get messy and hard and too often we believe that we must figure it out on our own or have all the answers. It is my belief that we do have the answers inside of us but sometimes we need guidance to find them.

Waitlist for new clients
Over the past 14 years I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in mental health and behavioral health settings helping with things like trauma, grief, and mood disorders.
One of my favorite quotes by Brené Brown says, "Shame corrodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change." No matter what you've been through or where you are now, I strongly believe you have the power to heal and become the best version of yourself. When we go through a challenging or traumatic event, our sense of self can become tainted, we may feel lost, and we may even no longer view ourselves as powerful, strong, or courageous. It can be scary to navigate that alone.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
