It’s hard to tell someone else your deepest secrets. The truth about your inner voice, your desires, your struggling relationship. You’re left feeling alienated and unsure if you will ever find the kind of true connection that you crave. You know deep inside that relationships and intimacy are meant to be wonderful…but something is holding you back: Fear of rejection. Fear of judgement. Fear of not being enough. Fear of not knowing what to do. Fear of being alone. I'm here to help with this sense of disconnection and despair. I believe we all deserve to love and be loved- and especially, to love ourselves.

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to gently witness, learn, and grow upon your own individual path. Often times, the circumstances leading someone to seek a healing relationship are both difficult and hopeful. Within the counseling relationship, we are able to identify and honor patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors from a place of understanding and empowerment. The healing transformation is able to occur naturally and gently from this gentle place of self compassion.

In order to provide a safe environment for clients to open up and share their most personal thoughts and feelings, I begin with a compassionate approach. This means I put myself in the client's shoes and work at their pace allowing them to experience complete healing that is personalized to them. I use evidence-based practice to ensure ethical practice allowing clients to begin to experience relief in the shortest amount of time. Client's create personalized treatment goals and intentionally work toward achieving objectives to resolve their issues in a way that is most effective for them.

Navigating this journey of life is not always easy. Luckily, you don't have to go it alone. Therapy can help if you are dealing with life transitions, grief/loss, relationship or family issues, general stress, depression, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, or coping with past trauma. I have over 10 years' experience using evidence-based treatments to support others in these areas. I earned my education and training at the University of Michigan and in federal service working for the Veteran's Health Administration.

My specialty lies in trauma and complicated grief and loss. We all need a safe place to talk and express our emotions...knowing that the person listening understands the impact of YOUR loss/trauma on YOUR life. Many times we learn through our tragedies...but ALWAYS it changes who we are and our perspective. By talking out the new emotional/perspective changes, at times forced upon you, we can defuse the shame, the fear, and the doubts; helping you move forward from tragedy. The fact is you CAN move forward, through and past tragedy.
