I have experience working with children, adolescents & adults. My goal as your counselor is to be a guide and mentor to help you find solutions to problems you encounter in life. My clients can expect a warm, genuine, professional relationship and are expected to play an active role in the therapeutic process.

Let’s heal and enjoy this life! Hundreds of my clients in both residential settings and in private practice have experienced lasting, positive change as a result of a combination of EMDR and non traditional psychotherapy. EMDR is a powerful psychotherapy approach that has helped an estimated two million people of all ages relieve many types of psychological distress including trauma, anxiety, panic, disturbing memories, persistent negative thoughts, depression and post traumatic stress. The EMDR technique allows clients to quickly and efficiently reprocess memories resulting in improved thought processing and emotional well being.

Come as you are. I am ready to meet you, as you are, in a healing, judgement-free zone. I want to learn about all the parts that make you unique. My own experiences have led to an understanding that our world is created through our beliefs, culture, values, and environment. Let's begin to unpack your journey together and discover new paths that are aligned with your goals.

As a Licensed Mental Health Clinician, I see myself as a guide in the counseling relationship to help clients navigate life challenges. I aim to create a culturally sensitive, safe, non-judgmental space that allows for collaboration and exploration of strengths and the development of new skills to promote self-growth.

Change is inevitable; no one stays the same in their life journey. I am passionate about helping others walk through the mountains and valleys in life growing stronger by building their inner strength. Each one of us has wounds and scars but they do not have to define who we are. I love working with individuals, couples, and families to draw on the positive qualities of each member in the family system in order to guide the family toward a more mentally healthier life. Connection is the secret ingredient to your overall well being. When we honor our pain by sharing it, we can heal it. Remaining silent can give power to the pain.

Therapy is about where you are and where you want to go. It is about acceptance of your values and the goals that you seek. Therapy doesn't have to be a long painful journey. Resolving conflicts, getting over issues, or addressing unwanted feelings should be a positive quest. I believe in short term therapy which has been successful with my Adult and Adolescent clients who experience depression, anxiety, trauma and other symptoms. Life Coaching-Therapy can help uncovering the patterns of feelings, thoughts or patterns of behavior that have interfered with our goals.

Thank you for reviewing my profile. As a client you will quickly establish whether we are a good match. The most important aspect is the therapeutic relationship and that is built on safety and trust. (I have training to help you manage emotional and physiological mental health symptoms, to improve your functioning and quality of life). My style is honest and solution focused. Relationship problems, substance use, navigating conflict, break-ups, child custody conflict? Maybe you are wanting to get back into dating after divorce and need guidance?

Are you ready to heal but nervous therapy won’t work? Let’s try something different. I specialize in non-touch, somatic-focused, trauma therapy and couples counseling. For trauma therapy, I work with clients ages 10+ with anxiety, nightmares, dissociative disorders (including DID/OSDD), PTSD, and C-PTSD. Many of my clients include military, healthcare workers, first-responders, and those that have experienced difficult events in their lives that they carry daily without relief. For couples, I use the gold standard of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for monogamous relationships and work to break negative cycles & truly heal wounds.

Whether you're fighting with addiction, anxiety, mood concerns, relationship issues or just the ups and down of life, I specialize in creating a space where you're able to learn and express yourself to improve your quality of life. Whether navigating a divorce, struggling with child custody or having family conflict- Let me help you figure out the best plan for you.

I hope to have the opportunity to work with you, build respect, trust, and positive change. The journey to self-discovery is a collaborative relationship that I approach with genuine interest, acceptance and compassion. I believe that therapy should address the person as a whole including aspects of mental, physical and spiritual well-being. I believe all clients are unique and my therapeutic approach is adaptive to each individual’s situation.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I take pride in providing accessible, quality comprehensive collaborative mental and behavioral health services to improve the quality of life of clients and families. I am dedicated to working with and supporting those in the community through their journey to positive mental health.

Every day, a million miracles begin at sunrise! I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker. My preferred areas of therapy are: (1) Childhood trauma, PTSD and Relationships. (2) Co-Dependence, Independence & Self Esteem, (3) Senior issues, Life Integration & Ending Thoughts. Life patterns and behavior are formed in the early months and years of life. We can’t go back and change the beginning, but we CAN change the direction we are going now if we choose. Change IS possible!

The Best View Comes After the Hardest Climb. We don’t always have control of what occurs in life, what we do have is the power to choose how we will allow circumstances to impact our lives. Choosing to participate in therapy is a statement that exclaims, “I love and owe it to myself to overcome my fears, conquer my obstacles, learn to cope with life’s trials and tribulations, and finally set my mind free from worry, confusion, and uncertainty.” Allow Mindful Healing to guide you on your journey of uncovering your inner strength.
