I am certified in trauma-informed care and feel honored to walk a path of recovery with those who want to heal from histories of abuse and neglect.
My clients want an empathic, understanding therapist who helps them develop insight and skills to overcome their challenges and break free of the issues that are holding them back from achieving their life goals. Most of my clients cannot afford the customary rates for therapy and want a therapist who is nonjudgmental and sensitive to their circumstances. Although many of my clients want short-term treatment to cope with anxiety and depression, many others want a therapist who can help them with complex problems that require long-term treatment.

I have specialized experience working with Intimate partner violence, relationships, addiction and trauma.
Talking with a therapist provides a safe place to talk about painful thoughts, feelings and stressors. You may be feeling sad, angry, anxious or stuck. You may be unable to control negative thoughts, unhealthy behaviors, engaging in unhealthy relationships or repeating destructive patterns. You may be distressed from memories related to traumatic events. It takes courage to talk to another person about these undesirable and distressing parts of your life. I offer a safe space to talk and be listened to. When you are ready, I’d like to help you feel better about yourself, your relationships and your life.

I am also a firm believer that difficult, bleak things can still be meaningful, still include joy, still contain peace.
