I have 10 years of experience helping men and women in the prison system. I'm currently licensed in Wyoming, Washington state, and Michigan and am certified in accelerated resolution therapy (ART) and trained in EMDR. I am LGBTQI+ and kink friendly. I am a certified clinical trauma professional. I like working with clients who may be dealing with trauma, especially PTSD, regardless of the cause because A.R.T. is so powerful. A.R.T. is especially helpful for veterans and first responders.

I see clients virtually in Wyoming, Washington, and Michigan - reach out, I may have openings. Yoda is one of my favorite characters because of his statement "do or do not, there is no try". But how does one do or not if one doesn't know what to do? Maybe you just feel stuck and don't know what you feel you need to do next or even want to do next. Helping you to identify the need, the goal, the ultimate issue is my goal. I work primarily with adults and senior adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and a host of other mental health concerns. I am LGBTQI+ and kink friendly. I am a certified trauma professional.

Oftentimes, we excel at human-DOING but not human-BEING. I am here to help with your human-BEING.

When Talk Therapy Isn’t Enough: How Neurotherapy Heals Trauma Talk therapy gives insight — but trauma lives deeper. For many, especially those with developmental trauma, PTSD, or dissociation, talking about the problem doesn’t help the body feel safe. That’s because trauma changes the nervous system. It bypasses logic. It lives in the body. Neurotherapy helps the brain unlearn survival mode. By reading and gently training your brainwaves, neurotherapy helps reset your nervous system. That means fewer shutdowns, less hypervigilance, and more connection — to yourself, your emotions, and the present moment.

My ideal client is a person, couple, or family who knows that there are hard questions to be asked and is seeking a neutral, caring, and engaging third party to offer authentic insights and ask the hard questions. The goal is to help the client acknowledge, accept, and lift whatever is blocked and help validate what is seeking validation. This may be someone stuck in a pattern or a couple unable to see their strengths while navigating their weaknesses. A client may want someone to hold the space and trust that the clinician will also know when to move forward. My ideal client is open to a variety of modalities for healing.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
