Many adults wonder if life will ever get better, after experiencing trauma, grief or difficult relationships.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you change the way you think and feel about yourself and the world, ultimately changing your responses to situations. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) helps you learn healthy coping skills and desensitize the effects of traumatic memories.

My personal experience with loss has allowed me to understand a side of grief that is difficult for others to see.
Have you been wondering where your hope has gone to? Life can be turned upside down in a matter of moments and you look in the mirror and don't know who you are anymore. You feel broken and that is okay. My hope is to help you to see that feeling broken is okay and you will not feel shattered forever. I believe a shift in your thought pattern has to take place in order for change to happen. I join empathy and understanding with Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral therapy to help you on that journey.

Are you navigating a season of loss, change, or uncertainty?.
Earlier in my career, I focused on working with children through play therapy. While I continue to work with children and incorporate the creativity and insight gained from those experiences, my practice primarily focuses on empowering adults and individuals navigating grief or significant life transitions.

Processing grief promotes emotional healing and growth.
Feeling unhappy, stressed, overwhelmed, or out of control of your own life? New to therapy or in search of a therapist that's a better fit? We often underestimate the need to have someone support us through challenging experiences and difficult emotions to get us to a better place. It takes courage to seek change and take control of our lives to get us to where we want to be. As a counselor, my goal is to help you gain insight into your current situation and guide you into learning how to manage your emotions so you can break free from the obstacles that are hindering you from having the quality of life you wish to have.
