This is a huge step you have taken to begin your healing process! Childhood trauma disconnects us from the truth of who we are. We believe that somehow the hurt we experienced is our fault, we are not good enough, we don’t matter, or we should have tried harder, etc. Without healing, these beliefs follow us far into adulthood. We are left repeating dysfunctional family dynamics, coping in unhealthy and harmful ways, developing addictions, eating disorders, feeling depressed or anxious, and having difficulty in relationships. It all leads back to the most important relationship- the relationship we have with ourselves.

Does life currently feel like you are just existing, surviving, reacting, or coping? Are you lacking real connection to yourself or others?

Whether you are looking for a therapist for the first time or need to start back up, you have come to the right place.

I have found that people are the most successful in their counseling journey when they are ready to work on what brings them in. While individuals may not be able to identify their specific goals, they are motivated for a change to occur. Motivation is what propels each person throughout the counseling process to achieve the goals that are established together.

I believe that change occurs when we are met with compassion, deep listening and a sense of hope. I focus primarily on traumatic grief with an understanding that there is no wrong way to feel, timeline or expectations. My approach is individualized and draws upon several interventions such at the ATTEND model for grief, trauma focused CBT and mindfulness. Many of my clients have lost loved ones to sudden and traumatic deaths including suicide, auto accidents, homicides, medical malpractice and long term illnesses. I believe in walking beside you during the most difficult time of your life and drawing upon your inner strengths.

I have been fortunate to be asked by people of all backgrounds and ages to work with them in psychotherapy. For some people, there is an urgent need to tell someone they trust about their untold conflicts and fears, as well as their aspirations. For others, psychotherapy is a necessary vehicle to re-establish and/or maintain inner peace and stability. Psychotherapy begins with a clear understanding of what is most important to that person and helping them achieve it.
