I treat each person holistically, using cognitive, emotional, and somatic approaches.
From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together, but inside, it feels like a completely different story. You might be fed up with constant worries and sadness, feeling overwhelmed or on edge. You might not even remember the last time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to feel calm. You're ready to feel grounded and at peace with yourself. Most of all, you're ready to rediscover your true, confident self. Let's throw political correctness out, get down to business, and help you solve your problems.

I am trained in EFT/EFFT/EFIT/EMDR/CBT/TF-CBT/CPT etc.
Perhaps you are here to explore how therapy can help you through trauma, relational stuck points, and cultivating a better relationship with yourself. I would love to be part of your journey as I know that the paths in life can be rocky and sometimes treacherous. At times we just need someone to help us get back up after falling down or just be with one who may have a little bit more familiarity of routes that are walked through certain terrain in life. I may not have the road map. But together we can chart a trajectory that could lead you to better outcomes and a different destination then perhaps that you have been experiencing.

I utilize interventions and principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and follow a trauma-informed approach.
You may have a desire to heal from painful experiences but need guidance on how to start. You may feel overwhelmed trying to manage life's ups and downs. Or maybe you are going through a big change in your life and find yourself struggling to manage it. I work and connect well with adult and young adult women that have been exposed to traumatic experiences and/or are currently struggling to manage life transitions (i.e., relationship separations, loss of a loved one, loss of a job, and going to college). Whichever your situation is, you don't have to go manage these challenges alone and I'd be glad to help.

The thoughts of harming yourself are a hard thing for a lot of people to comprehend, which can make even asking for help seem impossible. It’s often hard to reach out to close friends or family…nevermind some stranger that says that they can help. I strive to offer every client a supportive, non-judgmental approach to help explore where you are at, how you’ve been coping with it, and what a tomorrow that is worth living for would truly look like. No one starts cutting or thinking about suicide without a good reason. No matter what your reason is, it matters, even if others have told you otherwise.

Life can feel so overwhelming, with endless things to do, deadlines and decisions to make. It's hard to know what to do with all the emotions swirling around in our brains. With everything going on in our lives, and the world right now, it's even more important to develop coping skills and have an appropriate outlet to process experiences and "empty out" our heads, sort through the jumble of thoughts, and make sense of it all. We tend to view our troubling thoughts as embarrassing and scary, and talking through them makes them much more manageable.
