I look forward to working with you to identify areas of concern and develop goals to address those concerns. I will use various therapeutic techniques (CBT and Strength Focused Approach) as well as resources to assist in resolving issues to meet your goals. I am trained in the use of EMDR with adults and children to address trauma and anxiety, which I have observed to be effective and life changing for many. I am happy to incorporate Christian/Biblical principles in our work together if you so choose.

Therapy should feel like a conversation between two people filled with some laughter, tears and comfort. What can you expect from me as your therapist? I am very laid back, open and honest. I am accessible to my clients in between sessions should a situation arise. I like to have a good time while also addressing your goals and believe that there are working sessions and venting sessions. Therapy is a great opportunity to get a new perspective, to increase self-esteem and to feel more confident in the decisions we are making and reframing those automatic negative thoughts.

For those with Combat Stress or Trauma, traditional therapy models tend to fail because they are based on cognitive reframing, emotional intelligence and empathy...something that was conditioned out of you and never put back. Being asked to "think positively," "do your deep breathing," and "use your coping skills" rarely works if you are not taught the WHY. That's where psycho-education comes in. Humans have an intrinsic need to understand the purpose behind what we are doing for it to hold any meaning, let alone be implemented. Book with me by clicking on my website!

I have extensive experience working with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, school aged children, and their families. I have over ten years of clinical experience in child and adolescent therapy, evaluation, and parenting consultation.
I specialize in providing therapy and evaluations for children. I provide therapy for children and adults when there are emotional or behavioral problems that interfere with functioning or relationships. For example, parents often seek therapy for their children to help them cope with divorce, trauma and loss, to decrease symptoms of anxiety or depression, or to learn to manage problems with school and difficulties with peers.
