As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I provide a safe, judgement-free space for individuals of all ages to grow. I will partner with you to better understand and overcome the obstacles preventing you from having the life you desire. While I now specialize in working with adolescents and adults, my 10 plus years of working with children has given me a unique perspective on the impact early experiences have on our mental and emotional needs. This includes the impact of early childhood trauma and family dynamics. I believe we are deeply impacted by the stories we have about ourselves and our life experiences.

Our busy world can feel exhausting at times. Maybe you feel the need to over preform and do it all yourself, to the point of exhaustion. Alternatively, maybe you’ve been isolating in an attempt to find rest and peace. Perhaps you feel stuck, vacillating between the two poles. Maybe it’s time to open up and unpack the burden you’ve been carrying. You may not know where to begin, and that’s okay. Let’s work together to unwind the knots and tangles of life that seem to develop over time. You don’t need to do it all or carry it all alone.

Here at Wellness Encompassed we believe in treating the human and not the symptom. We see the client as an individual on a path that we embark on together, where we walk along side them, to support, advocate, and to provide guidance to as we meet them with compassion and understanding. We work with our clients to meet their needs and connect them to our community partners if requested, such as nutritional counseling, medication management, physical therapy, chiropractic care and even massage therapy. We believe we grow as a community the more we support one another in the spirit of compassion.

The first environment of the unborn child is the womb, where the relationship between mother and child not only are connected on a physical and biological level, but on a psychological and spiritual level as well. Research now shows the stressors experienced by the mother internally, and in the external world, reach the baby in the womb impacting the baby’s physical, psychological development, personality and quality of later relationships.

Life is a constant battle and we do what we can to power through every day. We can't control everything that comes our way but we can learn to control how to process our environment in a way that is more constructive and less overwhelming. Is stress permeating your days? Are the smallest things causing anxiety? Do you feel easily attacked, targeted, on the defensive? When something bad happens around you, do you usually believe you are partially to blame? Difficult jobs, heavy workload, relationship struggles, family issues, and more concerns can be eased with talking it out in a safe and judgment-free space.

I love being able to see people get better. I have witnessed people’s incredible strength and resilience as they face some of life’s toughest challenges. Though changes can often be outside of our control, growth is our choice to make. I believe growth happens best when we have authentic, intentional support. My approach to counseling is largely in part believing in the power of connection and providing a space of sincere empathy, acceptance, and genuine interest.

In difficult situations we might shut down, have a hard time identifying/communicating needs, might experience anxiety or struggle to control anger. In our work together you will have a chance to learn more about yourself, grow compassion towards yourself and understand your triggers better. I believe that our bodies are constantly giving us messages. These messages are an invitation to help us understand our needs and attend to them well.

Healing starts when empathy is offered first to your own journey and then to the world around you. It would be my privilege to support you throughout your journey towards healing, uncovering a deeper comprehension of yourself, and the world around you. As a therapist I work alongside each of my clients by examining your lived experience and perspective to better understand how you comprehend and move through reality. It is through exploring our lived experiences and perceptions that we can become more aware how we operate, respond, and live in this world and can facilitate healing for ourselves and in our relationships.
