My work focuses on women facing challenges such as ADHD, trauma, relationships, domestic abuse, depression, anxiety, and gender issues.
At times throughout our lives we may find ourselves feeling lost or confused due to sudden changes, uncertainty, or the inability to move forward. Understanding who and what shaped our lives as well as how those influences continue to impact us is empowering. Therapy is an excellent way to clarify our thoughts and understand our emotions in order to reach a healthy life balance. It can help us move from feeling helpless or hopeless to developing insight, daring, and resilience. The therapeutic process can instill a level of self-confidence and self-awareness inspiring us to become our ideal self.

My passions lie with individuals that suffer from PTSD and the effects of trauma. Once you identify the root cause of your symptoms, which can range from depression, panic and anxiety, nightmares or insomnia, even chronic health problems, you can truly begin to heal and grow. I tend to utilize a lot of CBT and DBT interventions and I do like to assign tasks for you to practice between sessions. Although these are serious issues, I believe in my heart that a sense of humor is absolutely vital to survival!

Studies prove that unaddressed childhood trauma can negatively impact an individual’s ability to function in life as an adult. Children often develop distortions about their value and uniqueness. Processing this now may save you and your child a lot of heartache later. My compassionate approach to therapy is holistic, meaning that I take into consideration how different life events and people affect the whole person. I create a specific treatment plan for the client that fits their needs. Life challenges are a constant, but with the right strategies, a child can learn how to handle and navigate through them with confidence.

Feeling isolated, stuck in a rut or like you don't matter in the world? Has your teenager gotten out of control or had a dramatic personality change? My approach is to empower clients in order to change negative patterns and learn to make meaningful connections with others in order to heal from painful experiences. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship is necessary for clients to feel safe enough to make changes in their lives. In a supportive, affirming, and non-judgmental relationship, clients experience interpersonal growth, develop healthy copings skills, and learn how to respond differently.
