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.

I specialize in attachment, grief/loss, trauma, play therapy, and integration of faith in therapy.
I provide a safe and supportive environment for clients to share and feel heard. Every client has his or her unique way of relating to others and learning, which impacts what kind of therapy, will be effective. I come alongside my clients to explore, encourage, and support them in the therapeutic process while developing skills to take with them as they continue on their own personal journey. I utilize different theoretical concepts including Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Acceptance/Commitment (ACT) Solution Focus and Play/Art therapies, while consistently viewing clients through the lens of developmental stages and attachment styles.
