My ideal client is ready to show up for themselves. They have an idea or sense that there are things to work on. Maybe they know what the issues are or maybe they'd like some guidance through that exploration. The first step is seeking connection. A therapeutic relationship can be powerful towards setting and achieving goals! I understand there is a lot of stigma around mental health services. I have both personal and professional experience in this realm. I strive to create an open and safe space for clients regardless of where they are on their journey.
I work with children and adults, serving individuals, couples and families. I have experience in the criminal justice system as well as community based services. I am trained in professional counseling, specializing in trauma therapy including attachment work and somatic experiencing. I serve clients suffering from symptoms of depression, anxiety and PTSD.
Life happens. It can be difficult and overwhelming. Whether you struggle with things from your past, your present, or anticipation of the future... Allow yourself the time and space to talk with someone. The time you give yourself can develop into overall wellness. You deserve that!
