Welcome! Brene Brown, social worker/researcher states: "One day you will tell your story of how you overcame and what you went through and it will be someone else's survival guide". I believe in our ability to overcome our struggles in life, and how these can bring out our strengths and character that we otherwise would not have known in ourselves. Starting therapy is a journey and a courageous first step to take. I have confidence that with support and guidance you can find strength and meaning in the difficulties that bring you to therapy.

Hypnotherapy has helped hundreds of my clients from trauma that happened when they are children. If you have had a traumatic experience as a child, have done work with psychotherapy, there may be a part of your mind that is still not healed. Hypnotherapy work can help a client to regress to that part and work through that part's trauma in order to see the healing process through out the client's soul. The regression work with hypnotherapy has helped hundreds of my clients over the past 11 years. This will work for anyone who is interested and it is done in a safe, healthy, calm manner. Please contact today for more information.

Our mission is to normalize mental health, reduce the stigma, strengthen the community, and help people reach their goals/dreams. We use your expertise on yourself, your strengths, and our knowledge about mental health to help you get what you want out of therapy. We are someone on the outside who can recognize patterns, challenge them when needed, offer ways to change that pattern, but we don't shame you if you don't want to, can't or are not ready. We understand that you need a connection, and aren't an "authority" figure. We acknowledge we are human too.

Everyone has experienced pain and disappointment in their life. For some of us that pain is keeping us from the life we want. You may have learned to cope in ways that are no longer helpful and have become "stuck." I consider it an honor to hear your story and help you navigate what is keeping you from moving forward.
