Life is a beautiful, messy, and complicated process. Through the midst of this process we lose connection to who we are and what makes us feel alive and whole. To me, therapy is a process of returning back ourselves. To identify what we need, engage in actions that meet those needs, and shed what is no longer serving us. My approach to therapy starts with our relationship, so you can feel safe and entrust this process with the most vulnerable parts of yourself. Through this entrusted relationship we can navigate the uncomfortable and messy parts of yourself and experiences that are blocking you from engaging in a meaningful life.

My passion is to help people find that moment in their lives when they can truly love themselves and tap into their internal strength. I didn't always have that, and I know how hard it is to find. I also recognize that I couldn't have achieved happiness on my own. I would love to be a part of your support network as you move forward in your journey towards happiness. I specialize in military life, veterans, domestic violence, child abuse, relationship work and parenting. This comes from education that I have received and life experiences.

Welcome! I am glad you are here. Asking for support can be challenging. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I utilize an unconventional approach to talk therapy. First let's identify what you would like to change or remove from your life. Then we will build steps together to make the change possible. We will use techniques through breathing, movement and brain spotting. We will make plans together to bravely explore yourself to understand who you are.

I enjoy working with clients who want more than the traditional “talk” therapy. I have an active, curious style when examining symptoms of distress. For example, if we were to explore feelings of anxiety, I may ask questions to identify where you sense those feelings in your body, discuss the implications of stress, and investigate the triggers for it. This will enable you to create greater self-awarenes and have better control over your symptoms. My philosophy is deeply rooted in the mind-body connection and our interconnectedness with the world around us.

My approach is based on neuro-developmental, psychodynamic and attachment theories, with a strong focus on creativity and self-empowerment.

Stress is an inevitable part of life and aspect of the human condition which, in its unhealthy and extreme forms, can manifest as clinical anxiety, depression, and other problems in living (e.g., substance misuse). Perhaps you have experienced the attendant extremes in thought, behavior, and emotion that are brought about by struggles in modern living but you, like many, have hesitated to ask for help or, after trying various forms of therapy, have not made the progress you expected and you’re questioning whether therapy is right for you. This is where I come into play.

My philosophy is change starts from the inside out with a choice and realization that it is for our higher good. As part of the human experience, there are times when unexpected losses, betrayals or traumatic events can leave us feeling alone with a host of negative emotions, feeling stuck in grief, anger, bitterness, anxiety and depression.
