I have over 37 years experience providing therapeutic services to clients of all ages and with a variety of mental disorders. I am passionate about engaging with clients to help them find their highest potential of health and wholeness. I use a client-centered approach, letting the client determine their own path, identifying strengths and roadblocks, searching for more adaptive coping strategies. I am eager to be your personal coach. I will join you on your journey of examining where you are today and how to reach your aspirations. Together we can examine relationships, professional as well as spiritual goals.

I grew up in an urban environment or as I affectionately call it “the hood”. It is my belief that those who grow up in “the hood” walk through life with a unique set of experiences. Those experiences serve as a foundation for the ways in which we show up in the world , how we understand and express emotions and how we engage with others. Through a collaborative and person centered approach I assist my clients in identifying, understanding, and highlighting the positive patterns that have been adopted as they have moved throughout life , while challenging and disrupting the patterns that no longer serve them well.

You may feel like you will never find a therapist you connect with, or that no one could understand what you are going through. The pain of struggle and daily life, especially now, can be overwhelming. You may feel alone in this world struggling with daily life tasks.

I have competency in all types of relationships, people with physical &/or intellectual disabilities, OCD and anxiety, parenting, sexual orientation, and addiction.

I have 13 years of experience working with children and families, especially young children. I've worked with diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, behavior issues, ADHD (mostly in children), attachment issues, adoption, parenting issues, and trauma. I also enjoy working with adults of all ages.

Do you find yourself wishing your life was different in some way, but you're unsure of how to get there? Are you struggling to manage feelings of anxiety, sadness, or to cope with the stressors of everyday life? Perhaps you need someone to hear you, walk beside you, help shed light on a new perspective, motivate you, help you manage difficult emotions, or to help you make positive behavioral changes. I would be honored to be that person for you and am confident I could help you get to where you want to be.

In therapy I value equity, collaboration, humor, and patience. I believe in a holistic approach where we see you not as a set of symptoms, but as a whole, complex, capable human being. You are the expert in your own life– in our work I will strive to provide support, reflection, and camaraderie as you seek out a life that fulfills you. I love working with couples, families, adults, and teenagers.

WELCOME – I'm an Individual and Couples Therapist, Board-approved Supervisor, and a Certified Enneagram Coach. I have 20+ years of clinical experience with most age levels, treatment settings, and client concerns. My areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationships, divorce, eating disorders, and grief/loss. I also have specialized training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which are highly effective treatments for PTSD. I am willing to incorporate Christian values when requested by clients.

Ideally, I enjoy working with people of all backgrounds and experiences. I like to follow a team approach where we work together to help you become the best version of you! I appreciate feedback and insight into your unique situation and input on what is helpful/not helpful in the therapy approach. I love working from a solution and client centered approach where we can identify common goals and work together to help you meet them. Ideally, my clients are those who want to become the best version of themselves, who want to understand themselves more holistically for their own well-being and are willing to do the work to get there.

I offer therapy for people looking for compassion, accountability, & even humor in their therapy journey. Leaning into my own life experiences, I aim to be radically curious about your unique perspectives and adaptations to life’s challenges. Through conversation we will examine patterns, explore values, clarify emotions, and sit with the complexity and duality within each person and the world around us. I welcome open conversations about race, gender, class, power, & sexuality. I invite exploration of how history, systems, and forces like current events & pop culture shape your life and inform your mental health & relationships.

Do you love someone who is struggling with the disease of addiction? Do you feel alone, terrified, angry, or worried? Are you riding a roller coaster daily? Does the idea of setting boundaries baffle you? Is your mental energy depleted as you are preoccupied with your person 24/7? Do you feel lost on how to help your family heal? Does the term 'Detach With Love' strike terror in you? When I worked in the Family Program at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation, loved ones constantly shared a desire for someone to come alongside them on their journey. I do precisely this with my company, Embrace Family Recovery LLC.

It is my honor to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families working to improve their relationships and communication. I create and hold space for my clients to process events in their lives, gain perspective, insight, and compassion for themselves while they deepen their most important relationships. Perspective is a powerful tool and one of the gifts of therapy. I utilize an eclectic blend of theoretical approaches depending on client's needs and desired outcomes. Co-parenting, divorcing/divorced couples & families, grief, trauma, identity work, and ketamine integration are areas of current clinical interest.

Does this vibe? " I’m constantly overthinking every little thing while simultaneously forgetting everything". Or, "I’m interested in discovering different aspects of intimacy and relationships and I need help figuring out what I want". What about, " I’m trying to make what feels like a bazillion (yes this is an actual word) decisions every day, while trying to meet everyone else’s needs". Better yet, " I am lonely and overly emotional yet unemotional and clingy but distant & private but will overshare and I'm an extrovert but also its way to peoplie to go outside and connect". If this is you then let's talk!

I've worked in a variety of settings over the years: in schools, community mental health, in home therapy, pregnant and parenting youth programs, grief/hospice, inpatient/residential/outpatient eating disorder treatment and college counseling. In these settings I've been fortunate to work with clients at different stages of life and circumstance. I also consult with parents who are preparing to launch their young adult to college, as this can be a confusing, challenging and emotional time for all. Additionally, I'm certified in Prepare/Enrich, working with engaged and married couples in strengthening their relationship.

My therapeutic focus and passion is working with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, are neurodivergent, and/or are a member of the LBTQI community. In our culture, neurodivergent and LGBTQI individuals are often ostracized and othered by their surrounding communities.
