"When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves." Viktor E. Frankl If you find yourself asking why, you are not alone. The journey of life is hard and no matter how hard we try, sometimes we need the support of another on that same journey. My dream has always been to offer Christian-based therapy that does not feel like therapy but instead like hope and healing. I love people, I love to laugh, and I love to do things differently.

Bio video on my website! Good therapy should be more than “What do you want to talk about today?” You need to work with a therapist who will give you tools to dig deep and do some heavy lifting, and that is what I offer. I am a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and a Certified Partner Betrayal Trauma Therapist candidate (CPTTc). I am particularly equipped to walk with clients navigating all types of sexual addiction trauma.

Do you struggle to find happiness and peace on a daily basis? Does depression, anxiety, or grief rule your day. The struggle is real. We all develop stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and other issues when our lives are turned upside down by events that we cannot control. I am here to help and have professional training and education to do so. The key is to identify the source of the struggle and how to navigate and develop coping skills to manage it effectively. I utilize several approaches including CBT, DBT, faith based, person centered, strengths based, and mindfulness based therapy modalities for you to reach your goals.

I'm a trauma therapist specializing in in attachment and body based therapy. My passion is helping people learn to connect with love to themselves and each other. I strive to create a relationship of trust, recognizing that someone is the expert in their own life and the author of their life story. I focus on giving a safe and supportive space in which I use gentle approaches to help people untangle hurts and restore light to relationships again. These methods include mindfulness, somatic, and polyvagal techniques. I help people understand old and unhelpful patterns so we can process new and adaptive ways of connecting to the world.

At times, life is overwhelming and complex - trauma and stress can leave us disconnected from our bodies, feeling like we are floating through life, not truly present. After a while, we begin to feel stuck. The things we did to ease anxiety and alleviate the pain are no longer working for us. How do we change these patterns and stop the cycle? It is my goal as a counselor to help my clients become unstuck and find healing. Sometimes, we need a gentle push to simply begin the journey.

I help individuals and families struggling to cope with the varied and pervasive effects of substance use disorders as well as their underlying or subsequent mental health conditions to overcome chemical dependency, gain self-sufficiency, build healthy relationships, and restore trust and support.

Life can become chaotic at times in which we sometimes feel we cannot reach out or find someone to connect with that streamlines our path to growth and healing. Mental health can be a challenge and I believe everyone deserves a good quality of life. I realize each person looks through their own unique lens. I take great pleasure in understanding each individual’s worldview, and together, assist them to recognize their strengths and specific needs. I want to give everyone the ability to enjoy a life of happiness they deserve.

During life’s most challenging chapters, we all need support, encouragement, and help to navigate the hardest times. Past and current struggles may be a part of your story, but they certainly don't have to define your future. Healing and change are both possible. If you're ready, I'd be honored to be on your journey to help support and empower you. Over the years, I've learned that many issues leading to counseling begin from unresolved trauma. I am nationally certified in TF-CBT (trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy) and nationally certified in Brainspotting.

Despite ethnicity, socioeconomic status, religious affiliation, or any other personal experiences or beliefs, each of us have the same start to life at birth: a pristine slate on which to begin our individual journey. Due to my own personal experiences, I strongly believe I have an affinity for troubled youth, young adults, and families. I know that I am blessed beyond words to have come out of my own childhood trauma with meager scars and have been given the privilege of walking alongside individuals struggling with the same sense of stability and self-worth I encountered as a child.

I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW) with a specialization in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). I have a heart for supporting people through their reproductive years while they navigate the ups and downs of pre-parenting, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood. My approach is to support clients holistically using an integrated therapeutic approach. I draw from elements of psychodynamic (narrative), acceptance commitment (ACT), cognitive behavioral (CBT), and mindfulness therapies in to ensure the whole person’s needs are met.

Life can be stressful and feel overwhelming. I am here to help. I am experienced with individuals and couples in all phases of life. My clients report they are comfortable opening up to me about difficult situations. My goal is to help my clients navigate through their current difficulties and empower them with skills for the future.

My ideal client is one who is motivated to work to make improvements in their life and makes our appointments a priority. We work as a team and you will get the most out of your therapy if you also work in between sessions toward your goals.
