Sad? Stressed? Overwhelmed? Relationship conflicts? Life not going the way you planned? Feeling hopeless? Feeling alone? No one understands? I believe that most of our struggles start with our wounds. We are all wounded. We will walk down the path to recovery together. We will focus on your strengths, not your failures. A compassionate ear without judgment is what you can expect. An understanding environment is what you will experience. I offer a variety of modalities with an eclectic and individualized approach. No two therapy sessions are exactly alike.
Bipolar Disorders, Depression, Anxiety/Phobias, Grief/Loss, Autism Spectrum, Substance Related/Addictive Disorders, Divorce, Thought Disorders, Abuse, Adjustment Disorders, PTSD/Trauma/Stressor-Related Disorders, Pre- and Post-Abortion issues, Relationship Issues, Spiritual issues, EMDR Certification, CBT, DBT, Boundaries.
I am an experienced, licensed therapist offering psychotherapy for our many struggles and perceptions of those struggles. I meet you where you are at - not where you 'should' be. Therapy is a process and I am here to go through it with you. Expect an understanding environment with compassionate ear.
