In working with individuals, couples, and families, I use an integrated approach incorporating techniques and interventions from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Everyone's life is a journey and their path is their own, yet is not meant to be endured or navigated alone. I take a collaborative and compassionate approach to work with distressing experiences and being a fellow traveler as people find the resources within to help them sustain and enhance wellness.

Everyone deserves to pursue happiness, unfortunately barriers are presented in our lives that make that pursuit difficult to achieve. My goal for therapy will be to collaborate with clients to achieve that higher quality of life they deserve.

I am a limited license marriage and family therapist providing care for individuals, couples and families.
When people look at you, it looks like you have it all, but life feels painful. You are successful, driven, and dependable. You have worked so hard to create the life of your dreams, but it feels like life is falling apart. Your marriage maybe falling apart or your important relationships strained. Something has to change because living this way is not working. You have tried to follow the rules and do everything by the book. You have tried to keep everyone happy. Yet, it all feels lost. You can’t go on like this. This is not what you want for your life. You are at the end of your rope, and it’s time for a change.

It is a privilege and honor to work with people in this field and would love the chance to work with you or your family.
Our goal in life is to be loved. We are remembered for how we make people feel. My goal as a therapist is to help families, couples and individuals with communication, coping and relationship skills to create a life that is this as loving and connected as possible. I have specialized in substance abuse for years. This has given me insight into abandonment issues, the need to escape to create emotional distance in relationships and how these types of patterns play out in relationships. My strengths are helping people to reconnect to their purpose in life and finding meaning in the relationships in their lives and rebuilding trust.

I am a certified LPC supervisor and owner of Sanctuary Counseling which currently has 7 clinicians. I love working with couples that bring any and all concerns to the table, its very rewarding to watch a couple turn from resentment and fear towards intentional love and fulfillment. I also enjoy working with adults to help them identify and meet their goals, often diving into how they are getting in their own way, with the result of them finding a stronger and healthier version of themselves.
