Are you struggling to make sense of your life or to move forward towards the flourishing you were made for? As a Catholic therapist I believe that each person has unique dignity and the potential to live life fully. Sometimes the effects of past trauma, anxiety and depression or the difficulties of life can seem like roadblocks. I work with my clients to navigate these challenges and integrate them into their lives as they discover their inner resources of strength and resiliency.
Before becoming a counselor, I worked with individuals from childhood through hospice. I earned degrees in Early Childhood Studies and Clinical Mental Health Counseling which laid the foundation for the integrated psychodynamic approach I use in therapy where I have helped those recovering from anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and past trauma.
My vision of the person is founded in Christian anthropology through which I help clients find healing and wholeness. I work with and welcome individuals of various backgrounds. If you are struggling to find a therapist that shares a faith-based worldview, reach out today to see how I can support you on your healing journey.
