As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I utilize a body-oriented approach to assist with healing trauma and other stress-based disorders.
Times are increasingly charged, and I would love to be of support. My approach is respectful, creative, and evidence-based. I view my clients as equals and see myself as a collaborator rather than a clinically-distanced authority figure. I am grateful to serve many clients with a diversity of backgrounds.

I use culturally sensitive strategies and appropriate modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Family systems to address various issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, parenting, and domestic violence.
Often, we rely on our natural supports for guidance however soon we realize, it is not helpful, perhaps because they say what they think we want to hear, and that’s not beneficial. I believe that for change to occur we must gain insight and self-awareness into the problem and that the therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist is essential. Despite the adversity you have encountered you deserve to live your best life and experience the best version of you. My role is to implement the most appropriate strategies and interventions and use my 17 years of experience in community mental health to support and guide you.

I'm passionate about helping others find healing and wholeness. My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, find healing from the past, and live a rich and meaningful life. I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and poor self-confidence. I have specialized experience treating trauma and substance abuse, and as a Certified DBT Therapist, I specialize in treating Borderline Personality. I utilize DBT, ACT, attachment, and Cognitive Processing Therapy as my modalities. I believe that one of the most underrated experiences is loss, including the end of significant relationships.

Specializing in anxiety and trauma related issues, I have successfully helped children and families increase resiliency.
Sometimes things feel hopeless, and fear can hold us back from seeking help when we are too preoccupied with being judged, especially as a parent working with a child that has mental or behavioral health challenges. Successful treatment begins with fostering trust, hope, and implementing strategies that really work. I am a culturally competent therapist with experience working with youth of all ages, adults, veterans, and families. I have a lot of experience working with foster youth in the system and helping adoptive/foster parents be preventative in handling behaviors in order to strengthen attachment.

Many adults struggle with communication and relationship issues that lead to explosive emotions, including anxiety and anger. Lack of trust leads us to keep those we love at a distance. All of these issues and more are usually symptomatic of a larger problem that keep us moving from one crisis to the next. The wounds of childhood trauma are far-reaching. We create masks and walls within us, and we acquire unhealthy and maladaptive coping mechanisms, keeping us chained to our past. Our childhood experiences, whether we remember them or not, are interwoven into the fabric of our being and how we live our lives and do relationships.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples work through symptoms of trauma and overwhelming relational experiences.
Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and loved ones leaving you in a cycle of pain? Or maybe it's difficult to be present, because you find your thoughts and perceptions rooted in your past. Clients I've worked with often show tremendous creativity in coping with overwhelming life experiences, but often these creative coping mechanisms play a role in their continued suffering. I've helped people like you understand & modify outdated methods of coping so that life can become fulfilling & meaningful instead of a painful struggle. You deserve support as you improve communication, set boundaries, and process past or current pain.

Working with me as your therapist, you will feel heard and supported in a way that is tailored to you - whether that means focusing on solutions and practical skills that you can implement between sessions; exploring how your past has shaped your present; or using evidence-based treatment to process trauma in a non-judgmental space.
As a therapist, I prioritize building a genuine therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy and compassion. Our bodies hold trauma and stress accumulated over our lifetimes. My practice integrates EMDR, mind-body modalities, and talk therapy to help clients cope with current stress and heal from trauma. Our life experiences also lead us to develop unhelpful thoughts and beliefs. I empower my clients to recognize and adapt their harmful thoughts patterns, giving them the tools to thrive.
