I enjoy working with individuals who seek to live happier, healthier lives and recognize that change can only happen by trying something new. Each of us has the power to create better lives for ourselves simply by changing the way we relate to ourselves. Many people never learned as children how to cope with stress and negative emotion. But this is a skill that can be learned in adulthood and that can pave the way for greater happiness throughout our lives. The ultimate goal is to prioritize your well-being and care for yourself by noticing and responding to your thoughts and feelings with compassion and validation.

We all have profound inner wisdom to heal. My role is to assist clients in identifying their unique strengths while providing support and guidance on that path. In collaboration we uncover the unconscious and conscious thoughts and beliefs that contribute to dis-ease. I offer ketamine assisted psychotherapy (KAP) for individuals, couples and groups both in person and virtually. My close collaboration with prescribing physicians allows me to offer a variety of therapeutic options as well as increase accessibility to KAP for clients interested in this modality.

If you care about all that clinical stuff………… My therapy approach, drawing from several theoretical orientations, is client-centered, Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), inner child healing, strength based on the belief that every individual is unique. My experience comes from bachelors degree in criminal justice and working with survivors of violence and finding housing for families. Later getting my master’s in mental health counseling to better serve those who experience trauma, childhood abuse and sexual violence. I believe we all deserve healing and leading a life we are free in.

My intention in therapy is to provide you a safe space where you may gain insight and face challenges with greater ease and confidence. I help individuals who wish to move through shame, grief and loss, low self-esteem, relational conflict, anxiety, depression, or trauma. I see the therapeutic relationship as an active process where change can occur. Through this process, I have watched others build self support, identify unhelpful patterns, and connect more fully in their relationships. I offer you a chance to practice the change you seek in a safe supported space.

Hello! As a counselor, it is my job to create a safe and compassionate space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. If you find yourself feeling stuck, struggling with relationships, fighting anxiety or depression, struggling with substance use, or have a history of trauma give me a call so we can discuss what counseling can do for you. Together we will examine the possible biological, sociological, psychological, and systemic root causes that may be holding you back. Through a decolonial lens we will use various therapies like CBT and Narrative Therapy to begin your healing journey.

A life worth living is one that is full of relationships, and commitments that align with and express our personal values; a life of meaning and purpose. For many people with trauma, such a life feels like a fantasy, wholly unattainable and not within grasp. We often simply hope for a life we can survive, getting through day to day, weeks, months, and staying alive and ok. But we can hope for more than that from life. We can recover and heal, and learn about ourselves and what makes us come alive. I’m here to help you navigate overwhelming emotion so you can feel safe and grounded; connect to yourself so you feel powerful.

I hold a personnel belief that the client needs to tell their story, feel safe in doing so, and form a bond of trust with their therapist. I have worked in mental health for 17 years. My background started in Criminal Justice. My first Masters degree is in this field, and continued to a Maters in Counseling. There was always one common thread, people were broken. A broken person loses trust, in both people and themselves. Building the therapeutic rapport is the beginning of trust, and the first step to healing. Mood and emotions can be deceptive, people want to give up, isolate, may be angry or dysfunctional. Take the first step.
