You've just taken the first step towards advancing your own personal growth. It can be difficult to address the painful or uncomfortable matters in our lives, but it is the only way to propel ourselves forward; to make the future stronger than the past. While the past will always play a role in shaping our future, it doesn't define it. Through counseling, we will work together to identify and overcome whatever obstacles may be in your path. With a clear mind and an empowered spirit, you'll be on your way to living a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life.

I have been in practice for 16 years and bring you clinical expertise in trauma work, with a specialization in domestic and sexual violence, though these are not the only issues that I work with. I operate from a feminist perspective and enjoy empowering women and girls to achieve all that they are capable of.
I offer both individual and group services. Sessions with me are relaxed, productive, and quite often include some laughter mixed in! Call with any questions or to schedule a free phone consultation. Welcome to the start of your next chapter.

The vibe of group is calm and relaxed. No one is required to share anything that they don't want to. Common themes addressed include, but are not limited to: flashbacks, feeling safe, sexuality, self-blame, others' reactions, coping skills, the criminal justice system, etc. I've been running groups centered on this topic for 15 years and have found it to be a very moving and powerful experience for clients. There is a special kind of connection and healing that comes from peer interactions in conjunction with therapist/client interaction. Schedule: Monday OR Wednesday evenings, 7:00-8:30.
