My great-grandmother was a Native American healer and I believe I have inherited her gift of healing.
I am a mental health counselor offering a client centered approach and believe that all people can change. Have you been struggling to move past your trauma and feel stuck? Are you experiencing panic/anxiety attacks and depression? Do you feel like the walls are closing in around you, do you feel like running, your heart is racing, you start to feel warm, and maybe you think you’re going to die? Childhood trauma changes who we are, but it does get better. There can be healing so life does not have to be so hard.

I am a Native American provider and the focus of my studies and work is on families.
I offer therapy services to any and all individuals seeking support and healing in their lives. Many clients seek out counseling when things in their lives seem out of control or they feel unheard. They want to speak to someone who is unbiased, honest, and who has empathy for their situation. I also have groups available for anger management, parenting, and domestic violence. I also provide assessments and evaluations for family law, criminal, and dependency cases as a separate service.

I'm a Licensed Marriage&Family Therapist, Children's Mental Health Specialist, Native American Special Population Consultant, Child Mental Health Specialist, Association of Play Therapy Supervisor, Credentialed in Attachment Therapy for children of Adoption and Foster care, with 16 years of clinical experience and supervise other therapists toward licensure.
I believe everyone has innate wisdom within themselves to overcome whatever obstacles are in front of them. I specialize in treating children, adolescents, and families that have experienced trauma and consequently suffering from anxiety, depression, attentional difficulties, sleep issues, developmental obstacles. Expressive therapies offers a unique way to language those issues using art, painting, clay work, journal writing, sand tray play and canine therapy, and they begin to externalize worries and concerns, crisis and trauma through symbols and mastery is gained. When families in pain begin to play together, perceptions of each other are changed, communication is accomplished and individuals experience their true potential.

For many years, I worked in community mental health in the Native American and Hispanic/Latino communities.
Hello and welcome. As a therapist for over 25 years, my goal is to create a safe environment for individuals, couples, children and families. This enables us to delve into important emotional, practical and relational concerns. Learning emotional regulation, coping and problem solving skills are often an important focus. Together we explore present circumstances and ways the past may have created obstacles to moving forward. In therapy we try to understand your personal challenges and use your strengths to work toward creating a life that is meaningful and fulfilling for you and your family.

Often when someone experiences trauma or severe life stressors, their life begins to unravel. I meet you where you are. The places in you that are lost and hurt and find a gentle supportive way to guide you and help you return to your core. To regain balance in your life. This is the work I have done since 2005 with the Native American Community. I help those who are deeply traumatized, by events in their life, those who have suffered abuse, neglect and grief.

I am a Native American descendant and I am very passionate in working with Native Americans regarding Historic Trauma, strengthening the family unit, parenting issues, adolescent issues, loss and grief .
When I am introduced to a new client, I want to know why the client has chosen therapy and what needs and goals the client has. Once we discuss this then we will determine the path that we should use to meet those goals. Normally I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior therapy or Cognitive Behavior Therapy because I feel that these two types of therapy work well with a variety of issues. I strongly believe in a strength based client focused type of therapy. Everyone has inner strength and I would help you identify those strengths

Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, you are stuck in the same patterns of emotions and choices? When my clients start therapy with me they often feel confused, exhausted and have difficulty making changes due to years of living in survival mode due to trauma. Sometimes, they even feel shame about who they are and the choices they are making. When they end therapy with me they feel more clear about their needs, desires and how to get both met. In therapy you can create a future that centers your assets and strengths to build a future that honors your desires and values.

Seeking Therapy is a courageous act of self-love; however, it can feel scary at first, but I want you to know that you made the right decision. A safe therapeutic environment would promote growth, healing, and stability. Therapy provides a haven for you to discuss things that you are currently struggling with or have experienced in the past and have not been able to heal from the situation completely. I have experience assisting individuals and couples in finding effective coping strategies to help manage life and relationship challenges.

Accepting New Clients - Immediate Availability! As a Clinical Social Worker I take an humanistic approach to care. Sometimes it isn't about what is going on within a person but what's going on around them or what is affecting their life. At times your needs aren't mental health related but instead need resources to address it along w/ therapy. In therapy I address issues such as: social dynamics (social anxiety, interpersonal communication, social skills), life transitions (grief, divorce), symptom management (sleep quality, improved moods, reduced stress), & academic challenges (learning disorders, attention/distraction, behavior).

Adolescence and early adulthood is one of the most trying times in a person's life. The journey of self-identity is difficult enough, and when mental or behavioral health disorders complicate or accompany this experience, the process can be all that more difficult. I enjoy meeting people where they are and helping teens and young adults work through identity issues, personal struggles, or complex life transitions. I have extensive knowledge and experience treating anxiety, depression, substance use disorders and enjoy the unique elements each of my clients bring to the therapy process.
