We are skilled in trauma informed care that helps clients move through whatever stage of life they are going through.

My ideal client is someone who is open to learning new ways of managing their emotions and life. They might struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, self-acceptance/worth and traumatic histories. They need someone to hear them out and a space to heal and overcome their past trauma and difficulties. They long to improve their relationships, thoughts and emotional responses to stressors. The client wants to be heard and understood.

When life becomes overwhelming, we often find it difficult to reach out for care. Maybe you are struggling with work, school, relationships, or battling expectations with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or avoidance. Often we struggle with ourselves - our inner critic, our self-doubt, our impulses, or overwhelming emotions like anxiety, anger, frustration, and hopelessness. We often believe that it is our responsibility to “figure it out” and shoulder the burdens of life alone, but it is not. You are worthy of attention, care, and healing, and have come to the right place to start this process.

There’s a part of your life that’s missing, and you don’t know how to get it back. Every relationship seems destined to fall apart as soon as it reaches the point of physical intimacy. You want so badly to be able to enjoy sexual experiences, but something is standing in your way. Even self-pleasure is no longer enjoyable. And with each disappointing encounter, the problem only seems to get worse. You worry about it constantly. “What’s wrong with me?” you ask yourself repeatedly. Any attempts at finding a solution have been useless. You wonder if you’ll ever be able to experience the most basic of human desires. You feel stuck.

We see you clearly. You are struggling with trying to hold it altogether but in the midst of that you aren't showing up for those that love and need you. Maybe you've been told that you need to just get over it. But how can you without the necessary tools? You're needing a safe space to vent that also provides you with tangible steps. If you feel like you've lost yourself, or maybe are on the road to exploring who you are we can work together to find that person again.

Do you suffer from trauma due to sexual abuse, abusive relationships, unresolved childhood trauma, and/or generational trauma? We hold on to that trauma in their Physical bodies without knowing. This and the emotional trauma an individual endures show up in our lives even when the action is over. Every relationship is affected as well as how we show up in our lives with work and other activities. This can show up in an abundance of ways. Deep down, we know something is off and want to heal and show up differently; however, we don't know how.

I believe that each individual is inherently unique and that each individual has unique experiences that have impacted them in different ways throughout their lifespan. My client's tell me that I'm not like other therapists that they've met in the past and they really enjoy my informal approach and the ability to develop that authentic connection and trust from the day one.

Now offering evening and weekend appointments. Are you feeling stretched too thin? Do you have a tendency to think of eveyone else's needs while neglecting your own needs? While many of us experience challenges like these, continued pressure to make others happy without taking care of yourself can have a negative impact on your sense of self worth, purpose, and your confidence. This can also impact how others see you and even cause you to internalize the demands of others into feelings of guilt and doubt.
