Do you find it hard to bring yourself to therapy and dread the awkward first session! I am here to help break that awkward tension and create a space just for you. I am an therapist with a military background, and 11 years of experience in the mental health field. With firsthand experience in overcoming challenges, I offer a trusted space for you seeking support through transitions, trauma, and personal growth. As a self-proclaimed nerd, I love imagination therapy and creative expression. Let's work together to unlock your strengths, navigate challenges, and foster healing.
Specializing in trauma, substance abuse, and military populations, I offer a safe and supportive environment where healing can flourish. My approach is rooted in the belief that each individual possesses inherent strengths and resilience, which we can tap into to promote growth and healing.
I understand that seeking therapy can be a courageous step, and I commend you for taking this journey towards healing and self-discovery. Whether you're facing past traumas, navigating life transitions, or simply seeking support, know that you don't have to do it alone.
