Healing is painful, it's going to hurt, and that's the work, but you don't have to do it alone! Whether it's individual or couple's work, I appreciate that you are taking the time to consider to engage in therapy to improve your well-being. For individuals, things we are going to explore to help you heal: your nervous system’s response to stress & safety, your life’s roadmap (where you came from), your life’s compass (where you are now), the motivation continuum (where you are going), your strengths, resources, & self-care skills.
I also provide brief counseling to support couples for these issues: Communication & Conflict Containment, Emotional Connection, Trust, & Intimacy, Discernment for Pre-Separation, Parenting & Co-Parenting Issues, Pre-marital & Cohabitation Concerns, Grief, Trauma, & Mental Health Concerns.
My goal is to guide you towards what will bring value to your life and relationships. I provide an inviting, non-judgmental, and supportive space that consistently focuses on enhancing your well-being in a meaningful way. What ultimately drives me is helping others embrace their humanness and creating lives worth living. Register online to get started.

I utilize neurobio (somatic) education to understand mind/body connection and build emotional language for trauma memory processing. I primarily utilize Focused Mindfulness, Brainspotting, IFS parts work, CBT, and EMDR as needed. I also utilize similar techniques for couples for goal setting, conflict containment, enhanced communication techniques, and intimacy building.
