I am experienced in treating trauma, anxiety, low self esteem, depression and older adults as well as those who have been hurt by religious institutions and experiences.
My practice is based on the belief that all of us at some time or another may benefit from having someone walk awhile with us on our life’s journey. I seek to provide support, insight and tools to support your travel on this labyrinth we call life. Trauma, situational stressors, relational issues and low self esteem are just a few challenges that can slow or derail us. I am experienced in navigating these issues with clients in order to encourage forward movement.

My professional training is in the following evidence-based/informed modalities: Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Theraplay, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, Parent-Child Psychotherapy, Yoga and body-based treatment strategies, Gestalt Theory, Internal Family Systems and Positive Psychology.
There are many paths to healing. My role as a therapist is to determine the approach that will work best for each client and to create the space for healing to occur. I understand the importance of balancing and integrating the emotional self, the thinking self and the physical self and have tools to intervene in each of these dimensions. I believe that for many, a root cause of suffering lies within the context of intimate relationships and that healing primary relationships can create healing within the self.

My hope is to bring awareness to your past and present experiences to facilitate a true healing in moving forward. It is possible to move through darkness into your light. I have an understanding and awareness of psychological and somatic/body patterning to help resolve trauma from abuse, acute events, relationship/attachment struggles, grief/loss, chronic pain, self-esteem/love, life transitions, and faith based/spiritual needs. Life events and experiences shape the way we see ourselves and how we live out each day. I believe a person can connect their mind, body, senses, heart and soul to return to inner balance and health.

I have worked exclusively with children and adolescents (4-18) for well over a decade and received extensive training in the treatment of childhood trauma, depression, and anxiety.
Waiting list at Capacity. I am a child psychologist and deeply respect parents who seek support for themselves and their children. My therapeutic approach is nonjudgmental, creative, and respectful of each individual's unique experience. I invest significant time and energy in establishing a strong partnership with your child and help him/her develop a personal investment in therapy. By prioritizing these two important elements, I have helped many children who have not benefited from therapy in the past. I also provide a therapeutic experience that is comfortable for children who are initially opposed to or skeptical of therapy.

Life is a journey full of a wide array of experiences. Some experiences feed us, test us, motivate us, challenge us, and still others may confuse and discourage us.

As a counselor, I seek to create a collaborative, trusting relationship with clients through which to explore, heal, and cope with life’s many surprises.

I specialize in helping people work through anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences and adjust to life changes. My goal is to help you find a way to identify and then move towards what is most important in your life. This can entail identifying obstacles that can keep us trapped in old patterns and habits that no longer serve us well, such as traumatic memories or simply negative concepts about ourselves. Entering therapy is signaling that you are ready to make significant change - whether in behaviors or thoughts - to find deeper meaning in your life.

Many of us experience difficult times in our lives and taking the step to shift our thinking and gain skills to manage these challenges is a significant choice. I believe that when working together, a therapist and client can engage in a partnership where new skills are developed, distorted attitudes and beliefs are confronted and choices made to live a stronger, more intentional life are possible.

Counseling is a process, not an end goal; and it’s a process by which challenges can be defined, addressed, and worked on. It’s a process that brings a therapist and a client into safe and confidential relationship built on trust and authenticity. The counselor encourages strength and establishes hope for real change through connection and exploration. We consider choices, challenges, and triumphs together, recognizing that while difficult, change is the vehicle we sometimes need to reach our destination or desired goal.
