We all have a story with puzzle pieces that we sometimes can't see how they fit. My hope and passion is to help identify how these pieces can be placed to help make sense of who we are and how we can fit them in to make us feel less confused. I have discovered that helping and healing is my calling and have worked on these puzzles with adults, families, couples, and young people. My hope and goal is to help individuals feel comfortable in a non-judgmental safe space to work through the difficulties they are experiencing towards their goals of self growth, and an encouraging atmosphere to help the individual not feel so alone.
During my 12 year journey I have utilized CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Play, and Faith based therapeutic skills. These have related to empowering the individual towards developing skills to work through Depression, Anxiety, Grief, ADHD, Bipolar disorders, relationship building, and the individuals role in their family dynamic.
When hearing your story and the journey you have embarked on, it is my hope to discover together how we can find the inner strength you have, which has not been revealed and has brought you further than you even knew it did. My goal is to help you heal and find peace.
