Owner - Wellness Matters, LLC. Specializing in Relationship Issues, PTSD, Trauma, Narcissistic Abuse Recovery, Depression & Anxieties. I often work with those who desire a clearer view of their life but don’t know how to begin. One of my passions is destigmatizing mental health treatment and providing a safe space for you to clarify your goals and organize your emotional life. My goal as a therapist is to empower you to address the things that are keeping you stuck and free you to focus on what brings you joy.
Feeling stuck on your path can be frustrating and isolating. Therapy can help you prioritize your time, energy, and focus. Life is complicated, relationships need care, and feeling out of step can be disorienting. You want to be there for your family and friends but you need to be there for yourself too.
Never been to therapy and don’t know what to expect? No problem! I provide an open and judgment-free environment that allows us to work together and build the trust required for your best results. Also, I’m a U.S. Navy Veteran and my language and attitude reflect it. ; )

Discretion is a big part of my practice, my clients tend to prefer a more discrete method of payment so insurance is not accepted.

Expect a healthy dose of laughter with your growth. Therapy is hard, sometimes a little levity is in order to give a breather. The ability to laugh at yourself (kindly) is a great indicator of mental health.
