I offer an empathetic ear to adults and children in a nurturing, therapeutic setting. Sometimes it is very hard to communicate with others. I can bridge the gap between individuals to allow open communication which is key to resolving most family issues. I offer home based services.

Hi friend. Are you struggling today? It could be exhaustion from the last couple years, anxiety, depression, lack of motivation, or a combination. I help teens and adults who are struggling with the feelings that come with life stressors and transitions. We work together to create a more fulfilling and balanced life. My goal is to come along side you as we work through these feelings and struggles. I'm offering telehealth sessions and walk & talk sessions if you are local to the Ashland area. I am a therapist who struggles with ADHD and enjoy working with clients who are also looking for support in this area.

Healing is a rocky and messy journey, we often quit and walk away from it before we see the true beauty of what healing can do for us. We all have a different road we have walked and each of our goals are different. If you want to start working on yourself but fear the road ahead, I encourage you to reach out and walk the path with me. If you are battling addiction, trauma, low self-esteem or self-worth, or if you are just trying to figure out the next path to take, I encourage you to reach out and we can walk the path together.

Don't let your struggles become your identity.

Contrary to what many people believe, not all adversity is bad. Over coming challenges produces strength in character, improves competency and leads to joy. Trauma occurs when adversity in life outweighs our available resources. As a EMDR and Trauma Certified therapist, I also incorporate techniques informed by the Polyvagal Theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) & Somatic Experiencing (SE) for a bottom up approach. However, my main goal is to remind you of what we all intuitively know - that healing can only happen within the context of emotionally safe relationships. You are safe here.

Silence only strengthens shame's grip, fostering a cacophony within that echoes the weight of an internal critic, knotted thoughts, and lingering childhood trauma. The struggle manifests in overwhelming ways, saturating your life, preventing you from moving beyond the echoes of the past and finding solace in the face of pressures. Relentless thoughts persist, accompanied by tumultuous emotions that surface uninvited and unwelcome. It's a challenge to silence mistakes from echoing as sources of shame, leaving you questioning how your life has become entangled in such chaos, weighted under the pressure of professionalism.

As far as anyone around you can tell, you are doing okay (maybe even great!), but deep down you feel you are barely holding it together. You’ve spent your whole life taking care of others and ignoring your own needs for the benefit of everyone around you. It feels like no one, maybe not even yourself, knows the real you. If you truly let someone in, what if they look at you completely different? You are terrified people will reject you and see you as a burden if you are no longer the "strong one." The fears creep in each time you think about breaking down the wall you've carefully crafted to keep others from getting too close.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
