If you’re looking for a refuge from loss and to heal from reproductive, perinatal, and family building issues, I can help. Are you having trouble grasping, understanding, or dealing with Trauma or a recent life change, I have specialized in these areas since the beginning of my career. Struggling to find self-love, your true identity, or growth, I offer a safe space to explore these aspects and more. If you are ready, you can feel: seen, heard, understood, like yourself again, more satisfied, hopeful and empowered.
Therapeutically, I believe you are the expert of your life and should be able to show up as your true self. My counseling and coaching approaches address issues important to you, help find answers most congruent with your values, and bring about real change. I’m here to listen. I want to help you be whole, healed, and ready to deal with what lies ahead.
My own challenging journey to motherhood guided me to understanding. The many transitions I’ve endured as a military spouse taught me about resilience. And my passion to help others grow, led me to build a therapy practice. I encourage you to contact me as my services are welcoming, culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and celebrate all abilities.
