Hi, I'm Sofia, and I love helping kids, families, and couples reconnect with each other and find the joy in spending time together! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and have worked with families in the valley for over 18 years. During this time, I've had the opportunity to watch many different family dynamics. When someone asks what makes the difference between "surviving" families and "thriving" families, I say it's the quality of those fundamental relationships. My goal is to help you and your family develop the understanding and habits that allow you to strengthen and foster healthy relationships.

As a trauma trained therapist, I offer a wholistic approach to therapy emphasizing a body, mind, soul and spirit focus. Experts agree that trauma can stay trapped wihin the body causing issues, while negative patterns of thinking and responding can create unhealthy, frustrating, stuck places. EMDR is a proven method which addresses all of these areas together. In addition, I work with clients who express an interest exploring a faith based perspective for healing. Therapy can be a safe place to work together to unwind the stuck places. Offer nature walk/grounding as an option as well

"Working with trauma is as much about remembering how we survived as it is about what is broken." These words were written by Bessel van der Kolk and are words that guide my practice as a therapist. We all face hard stuff in life, and for each person what that looks like differs and cannot be held up to others for comparison. Pain is Pain. The good news, however, is that also means that hope is hope and joy is joy. The hard events we face in our lives are teachers that give each of us an opportunity to face our fears head on and heal to fully embrace who we were always meant to become!

Hi, I’m Jena. I work with ages from young children (3+) to emerging adults providing individual counseling. I strive to help the people I support gain awareness while incorporating evidence-based practices. Together, we can discover strategies to push past the things that might be holding you back from emotional regulation and happiness. When working with young children, I utilize a child-centered approach allowing children a safe space to express themselves. When using this approach, the child is then able to open up in a trusting environment through play therapy. I currently am in pursuit of my Registered Play Therapist cert.

There is a special place in my heart for a traumatized child. Traumatic events in childhood have a devastating impact on the child and family.

Hi there, thanks for reading! For many of us it's difficult to ask for help, and sometimes it feels like no one around us understands or has been to a really dark or frightening place. To me, our family and friends are the most important things in this life, and without them eventually things can feel very empty. Although sometimes we can feel lost even when we have good people around us and a decent job. I try to help everyone I work with sort out what's helping and what's making things worse. It could be our job, an awful inner critic, what we think people see when they look at us in the grocery store, or many other things.
