By promoting a safe space where you can create, and recreate the you that is well. Tapping into the strengths that live in your heart, we will gain access to your ideals and understanding and build upon them. We will awaken the part of you that will teach you to become your own coach. I will introduce you to several techniques and theoretical orientations that best suit you. I will not subject you to change through somebody elses belief systems instead of your own. With my guidance, you will find the answers to change your life and find peace.
I am a seasoned Marriage and Family Therapist who has been licensed for over 18 years. I'm the spouse of a retired service member and the mother of a Marine, so I can empathize with and help our young service personnel and their families get through the tough times.
I specialize in blended families, addictions, trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, and relationships, It is my goal to have you have access to the best therapeutic relationship possible. I also use hypnotherapy and Reiki for clients who wish to try something different. I work on a sliding fee scale.
