After working 8 years in child welfare, in 2014 I began working as a therapist in a primary care setting, which afforded me the opportunity to work with a broad spectrum of clients. I believe that I am a relational clinician that is able to utilize a client focused, strengths based approach who best serves individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and those who have experienced trauma. From ten years of practice skill and wisdom, combined with a training background in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR, I believe together we can develop goals to reach the outcome you desire.

At some point in life everyone experiences some degree of stress or struggle. Fortunately more attention is being paid to the importance of attending to our emotional and psychological well-being. Still, for a variety of reasons and more often than not, change is challenging. Seeking therapy is a strength and increasing your knowledge of self and others is challenging, meaningful work and a worthwhile investment. Consider what you want to gain from therapy and begin taking intentional steps toward your goal(s).

Do you feel overwhelmed with some of your life circumstances? Have you experienced trauma: a divorce, job-loss, traumatic birth, difficult diagnosis, or domestic violence? Are you depressed, struggling with low self-esteem, lacking motivation, or needing help transitioning through life? I believe that every individual has what it takes to succeed and live a fulfilling life. Sometimes, we have to go through the darkest storms to see the brightest rainbows. Without the right tools and a safe non-judgmental space, it may feel impossible to weather the storm on your own.
