Trauma Focused Therapists in Woodstock, VT
Effective psychotherapy sees the human person as made up of body, mind, and spirit, and each dimension affects the other, especially during times of crisis, stress, transition, and disharmony. Currently I am seeing clients who want to heal brokenness from past or current trauma such as emotional, physical, sexual or verbal abuse.
I also see clients who have been working in therapy for a while and feel like there is something missing in relation to their spirituality and purpose in life. We explore the bridge between mental and spiritual health.

Thank you for your interest. I have almost 30 years experience working with clients. My clinical work focuses on couples utilizing the Gottman Method, and young adults in transition from college or a relationship. My therapeutic approach is to first explore with you your life history, the presenting problem and then develop a plan, utilizing tools to manage the stressors better. We'll establish goals for our work and embark on a journey together.

My ideal client is ready to explore how early attachment, trauma, and unconscious patterns shape the ways they show up in relationships. Through the lens of relational neuroscience, we recognize that many of our behaviors and patterns are not conscious choices but echoes of implicit memory—early, body-based experiences that continue to drive how we behave. My clients long for meaningful relationships where they feel safe and connected, where they don’t abandon themselves or repeat co-dependent dynamics. They want not just tools, but transformation: a felt shift in how they move through the world and in their closest bonds.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy works best when we slow down and pay attention to what truly matters. I specialize in grief and relationships, helping people understand the emotional and relational patterns that shape how they connect, cope, and care for themselves. Occasionally we find ourselves managing relationships with loved ones, colleagues, or others who may be unwilling or unable to seek therapy themselves. I understand that sometimes the challenge is not just about your own personal growth, but how to cope with and respond to others who may not be engaged in the therapeutic process.

You’ve always been the one others rely on, thoughtful, capable, and deeply caring. But lately, something feels off. You’re tired of overthinking, overgiving, and feeling disconnected from yourself. You want space to explore your inner world, reconnect with what you want, and finally make choices that take care of you. You’re not here for surface-level fixes, you want depth, clarity, and alignment. Therapy with me is a space to unravel old patterns, come home to yourself, and build a life that reflects your authentic self and actually supports you.

For over 20 years, I’ve worked with neurodivergent children, teens, and adults, supporting those with autism (ASD), ADHD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My clients often have a strong sense of self but struggle to bring this into larger social settings, including their families, schools, and the larger "normative" system. As a result, my clients struggle with emotional regulation, self-doubt, and the effects of systemic trauma, leading to an internalized feeling of “not good enough.” My goal is to help individuals recognize their inner strengths, access their innate wisdom, and live life as their authentic self in the world..

I meet people where they are so we can begin the journey towards a more healthy and productive life.

I am sensitive to inter-generational conflicts that arise due to acculturation issues. Experience working with maternal wellness, teen & adults. Envisioning a rich and rewarding life can be challenging when you are overcome by either longstanding or daily problems.

I believe that while people may share similar experiences, our reactions and perceptions are uniquely our own. This understanding shapes my approach to therapy, where I utilize various modalities including solution-focused, cognitive behavioral (CBT), person-centered, mindfulness, reality therapy and EMDR. I work with both adolescents and adults, offering in-person sessions at my office in Washington, MO, as well as telehealth services for clients in Missouri and Vermont. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings and develop strategies that work best for you.

I really appreciate clients who are willing to look at themselves and are brave enough to ask for help. Asking for help shows a desire to understand themselves on a deeper more spiritual level. I work with people going through transitions in life ages 4-94. It doesn't matter the age, it is the heart behind the age that counts. I work with individuals, family, couples, and those working on addictions issues that are facing crossroads in their life. Therapy gives hope and renewed vision and allows support to those facing the fear of change.

Going through a difficult time in life can be overwhelming and isolating, and the supports we typically turn to may not be enough. My hope is to join with you as you navigate this challenging time in your life, helping you feel seen, supported, and empowered.
