Somewhere along the way you feel you lost yourself. Whether it be in motherhood, wifehood, single-hood, your career, or in relationships. For one reason or another, the person you face in the mirror is not who you thought you would become. That very reason, brought you here and we are so glad you found us. We are here to meet you where you are. True liberation comes when we can accept all of who we are, understanding that every part, no matter how painful, deserves love and care. I help women step into full power by rediscovering self, redefining womanhood, and creating balance to maintain harmony in their lives.

Many of us walk around thinking that we should be happier, that we're missing an inner sense of vitality. Therapy can be a place to better understand the story of your life and think about how it might be different. My role is to help you clarify your inner sources of conflict in the hopes of living a better, more fulfilling life. I have worked with a wide variety of clients across my careers, and I have found that we are all more human than not. I practice from a trauma-informed lens and believe that true healing is always possible.

Are the challenges of life taking too much out of you? Are you having a hard time managing chronic stress, anxiety, depression, or the effects of trauma? Are you a person (regardless of your cultural background) that has experienced trauma specific to isms (racism, sexism, ableism, etc...), abuse, or the poverty experience? Are you seeking someone that can help you give voice to your unique experiences? In my therapy sessions I believe you will be able to find your voice, release pent-up emotions, identify and examine your strengths and needs, experience restoration and revitalization, and regain power and control over your life.

I absolutely love trees! (made you look, lol). Seriously though, I do love trees & their similarities to us. They provide beauty, shade, healing, & support, all while remaining rooted. I view therapy as a branch of support, much like the sturdy limbs of a tree. Just as trees grow & change with the seasons, I believe therapy can help individuals & families navigate the various seasons of life, providing support & guidance along the way. For the past 25 years, I've specialized in working with children, adolescents & their families from diverse populations. It takes courage to seek support & strength to follow through.

I primarily work with teens and women across the life span who would like to incorporate their faith in their healing journey. We live in a fallen world, and God does not promise that we will not have trouble through the seasons of life, for example, grief/loss, troubles in our marriage, hardships at work/school, being treated unfairly, etc. However, He does promise to be with us through these storms, and he offers His peace through it all.

Most couples want a marriage where they can be vulnerable with each other. Where intimacy and loyalty come together and create a beautiful friendship where they can experience the fullness of life together. The problem is, many couples often feel isolated and uncared for because of unmet expectations, miscommunication, and mistrust. I know it's frustrating when you feel like you aren't on the same team or how sad it feels when you second-guess if you made the right choice when you said “I do.”

According to my mother, my first word was "why." Why is the sky blue? Why can't I have a cookie for breakfast? Why are people hurting? This curiosity is integral to my work as a therapist, as I strive to understand my client's worldview and the problems they are facing. Whether you are reliving past trauma, plagued by worrisome thoughts, concerned about your relationship or substance use, or feeling generally dissatisfied in life, I will provide an empathic ear, support, and guidance to help you meet these challenges and make the life changes you desire.

Along the journey through life challenges are inevitable and there aren't always easy or clear answers about why things happen and what to do about them. We want our lives and life itself to have value, meaning and purpose; and finding or creating these things for ourselves can be confusing, frustrating and even scary. However, finding our deeper reason(s) in life can also be rewarding, exciting and empowering experience that provides the hope, courage, strength and tenacity needed to face life's challenges. Having the courage to begin this process and asking for support along the way doesn't mean you're weak, it makes you strong!
