“Trauma creates change you DON’T choose. Healing is about creating change you DO choose.”- Michelle Rosenthal. Trauma is an experience, not an event. Every human will experience some form of trauma in their lifetime. We can’t compare one trauma to the next as it’s real to the individual experiencing it and we all deal with our experiences differently. Trauma is what happens inside of us because of what has happened to us. It takes courage and effort to move beyond the pain that has maintained control of our thoughts and behaviors.

COVID 19 has changed many of our lives dramatically, and to many feels like a nightmare without an end in sight.

Your life and happiness are important to me! The human experience is not always easy and sometimes, we need support along our journeys. Whatever your experience, concerns, needs, or aspirations for personal growth, my desire is to work with you toward those goals. I have a passion for working with children, adolescents, and young adults. I know the development years can be difficult to navigate, especially in our ever-changing world, both for children as well as parents and guardians. I am an LGBTQ+ Ally and also specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, with all age groups, as well as academic-related concerns.

When things start to feel like they are too much, do you bottle up your emotions? Or maybe you explode? Do you find that as much as you try to move on, your past experiences still hold you back? Maybe you’ve recently gone through something difficult and it feels like you can’t get back to yourself. Maybe you say yes to everyone because you’re afraid what will happen if you say no - leaving your needs on the back burner. Maybe you’re worried about your child. Maybe you and your spouse are struggling to communicate. Maybe your brain runs a mile a minute and you can’t slow it down. Whatever the case, you want to feel better.

I get that life is busy, and taking time for mental health sometimes feels like another added stressor. I believe that building a foundation of trust is key to self improvement. I strive to make therapy a positive, safe experience to learn practical skills that will make stressors more manageable. The power of self awareness has led you here and it will provide insight on your internal struggle.
