I have experience with clients of all ages, but I specialize in helping clients who have been impacted by
divorce
, loss, relationship difficulties, transitions in life, school issues or those who are in blended families.
Sometimes we need someone to help us get through life's difficult moments and to start the process of healing. As a therapist, I can be a support for you to listen to you, help you process your thoughts, work through issues and help you establish goals to move forward in your life. It takes bravery and courage to share what's going on in your life with someone. Although you may be walking through a difficult time in your life, you do not have to walk it alone.

I am a recognized expert in treating traumatic
divorce
/separation and emotional abuse.
I specialize in treating the emotional and psychological impact of relational trauma. Traumatic experiences within the context of a close relationship can profoundly impact our sense of self, ability to trust, and safety in future relationships. My therapeutic philosophy is to increase awareness of your pain points, address them therapeutically, and empower you to move toward healing and resolution through engaged and active treatment. Across my decade experience, I have worked with clients to courageously address what they have been through to get to where they dream of being- a fulfilled, connected, rich, and dynamic future.

I offer counseling for adult clients looking to process major life transitions (
divorce
, leaving/changing religious settings, personal identity, etc), deal with burnout and boundaries, improve self-care, & address trauma (with a specialty in religious trauma/harm), neurodiversity and parent coaching for those with children and teens on the ASD spectrum.
Currently accepting new clients, in-person & teletherapy available. Stepping into the process of counseling takes courage, vulnerability, creativity, and a willingness to risk mistakes and failure. It requires the use of one’s whole self—body, mind, emotion and spirit. We also all need community to do the work of healing. Finding a trusted counselor can be one such communal support as you move through the process of excavating who you really are from beneath confusing and toxic layers of culture, religion, family messages, trauma, and unhealthy beliefs about yourself and others.

Having the courage to navigate through feelings and learning what makes us who we are is transformational. Here are just a few of the benefits you may experience from therapy: improved quality of life, decreased depressive and anxiety symptoms, improved interpersonal relationships, and improvement in emotional self-regulation.
