There is so much beauty in being honest and vulnerable. As a therapist, it is a privilege to be able to create a safe space for my clients—a space that gives them an opportunity to build strength, awareness, and resilience. Seeking therapy does not indicate failure or brokenness and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you navigate your life journey. I specialize in trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety of all ages. I am certified Brainspot therapist and have trainings in EMDR and TF-CBT. I am also an Associate Partner Trauma Therapist through IITAP which enables me to help betrayed partners navigating betrayal trauma.

Do you ever deal with intrusive thoughts, cycles of fear, repetitive behaviors, and or compulsions? Do you desire to break free from OCD, panic attacks, agoraphobia or generalized anxiety? You are not alone in this; there is hope for your healing! During our sessions, I will create a comfortable environment where we can explore the thoughts behind your OCD/anxiety without judgment or shame. Together we can find the peace you desire, and treat your OCD and anxiety symptoms with the skills learned in therapy. I also offer faith-based counseling to those who request that their Christian faith be incorporated into treatment.

I have extensive training in Family Systems Theory, Experiential Therapy and as of June 2024, I am trained in Attachment Focused EMDR and working towards being fully certified. Family has always been very important to me and that’s why I love systems therapy. So many of our wounds are tied to a relationship (or a lack thereof) and at the same time, healing can only be found in relationships. Sometimes we are afforded an opportunity to heal a relationship and other times we have to find internal healing with the support of other relationships.

There are a number of things that can create feelings of hopelessness, overwhelm, anxiety and stress. Changes and transition in our lives, our perceptions of self, and challenges within our relationships may inspire a desire for further insight and understanding of what we find important as well as how we might like to grow. Through counseling, you may begin exploring stuck points and areas of growth, supporting you in finding relief from emotional pain and in cultivating self-compassion - increasing your ability to cope with challenging situations and circumstances as you experience them.

No matter your age, occupation, or lifestyle every lived experience thus far in your life has contributed to who you are today. These experiences have shaped your way of seeing the world ultimately effecting your thoughts and actions. Therapy provides you a safe space to deeply explore these experiences, thoughts, and actions or even just vent about them. I believe that you’re the author to your own life, and therapy can be a great place to turn a new page, start a new chapter, and write your book in the way you want.

Are you tired of staring at the clock throughout the night, wishing you could sleep? Do you spend the whole day wishing for bedtime, only to feel wide awake when you finally get in bed? Do you dread sleep because of your nightmares? Or maybe you're sleeping too much because you just don't have the energy to get out of bed. Maybe your brain focuses on every terrible thing that could possibly happen. You may have gotten "helpful" advice to "snap out of it." A popular local plumber states "We repair what your husband fixed." You would call an expert to fix your pipes, and your mental health deserves the same investment!
