It can happen to anyone. Life is going along just fine, and then before you realize what happened, you find yourself in a tough situation you never expected. Coping with it has been far from easy, to say the least. You're not alone! If it's a traumatic event, if it's ongoing circumstances that impact your mood and overall functioning, perhaps I can help. I have specialized training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, as well as Solutions-Focused Therapy. I use a holistic approach; considering the whole person in their environment.

My approach to therapy is based on each individual’s inner strength and resources, and resiliency to every day stress and adversities that life tends to present. I focus on practical applications drawn from various theories as a means to provide each individual the most meaningful treatment for healing and change. One of the most empowering and healing methods I use in my psychotherapy is creating a caring, collaborative relationship built on mutual trust and respect, providing a safe environment free from judgment, and support through active listening and empathy.

My goal is to work with my clients to create an open & safe environment where thoughts & feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take those first steps towards a change. I have worked with clients to help them reduce stress, depression, anxiety, as well as with clients navigating trauma, LBGTQ+ related issues, challenges with self-esteem & relationships.

I use a mix of Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Eclectic, and Trauma Focused therapies.
I will create a safe space for you and allow you to have an “open-door” welcoming policy. I enjoy creating an area where you feel comfortable expressing what you need from me and how I can best assist you. Resources, words, actions, whatever can help you feel comfortable and confident in your journey.

Are you struggling with life's challenges? We all experience seasons in life where life gets too hard, and the burden seems too heavy to carry alone. More often than not, when we consider therapy as a treatment approach, we have tried everything we know to try on our own, and it's just not quite working. People who seek out counseling during these times are BRAVE enough to admit that it's okay to ask for help. Whatever you may be going through, my hope is that you seek the help you may need and find what works for you!
