Although some of the issues I treat are depression, anxiety, anger management, co-dependency, grief issues, and domestic violence issues, my primary focus has been working with adult survivors of childhood trauma.
Entering therapy for the first time can initially feel stressful or overwhelming until the process unfolds and you realize that you made the right choice; to take care of yourself. Something doesn't feel quite right; maybe your relationships lack fulfillment, you have no goals, you dread your future, or maybe you stopped looking forward to waking up and facing the day. Therapy is a step by step process that requires time and hard work. Together we will explore the mystery that surrounds you as you accept the challenge that is necessary to develop a new sense of health and well-being.

I specialize in working with individuals with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, and LGBTQ+ individuals.
Our busy lives can have unexpected changes that send us into challenging mindsets. Sometimes out friends, family, or partners just don't get what we're going through, and it can be difficult to even get out of bed in the morning. The voice in our head might tell us that we're not good enough, that it's not worth talking about what pains us deeply. You ARE worth challenging that voice in your head, and it is worth is to heal from our past to ensure our present and future are prosperous.
