We are all constantly growing, changing, and evolving. Navigating these transitions can bring about uncomfortable feelings or challenge us to learn something new about ourselves. Working through difficulties can bring hope, healing, and ultimately growth. I love to collaborate, helping you find your identity, strengths, your passion, and help to understand your value so that you reach your therapeutic goals. Whether you or your child needs support with anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting, ADHD, grief, infertility, self-worth, postpartum adjustment, or other concerns, I would love to help.

All we have to be in the world is kind and brave. Really. And I believe you can do that. Have you ever felt like you were walking on eggshells in your relationship? Do you feel like no matter what you do it is wrong from your partner's perspective? You shouldn't have to feel like this in your relationship. No one should have to feel afraid of the person they love. If you have begun to feel down on yourself because of the way your partner treats you, I would love to help you grow in understanding of present dynamics and experience relief so that you can move forward with confidence.

Do you feel weighed down by the past? Have memories of experiences from the past been blocking you from experiencing peace in the present? Unfortunately, you share this with more people than you probably know. Many people spend their lives trying to avoid, minimize, or erase those experiences. This can be painful, defeating, and exhausting, because those memories often will not go away.

If you’re reading this, some part of your life has worn out its welcome, and you’re ready for change. Maybe you’re tired of planning your life around alcohol, another substance, or addictive behaviors that keep you stuck in a rut, preventing you from living as your most authentic self. It could be that you find it difficult to establish and enforce boundaries. Finding the motivation and drive you once had might feel too challenging. Connecting with your partner may be a constant struggle. Or, perhaps, you want to give yourself the gift of space and confidentiality to work through the struggles of managing life's daily challenges.

I am dedicated to healing the scars that trauma inscribes on hearts, in minds, through behaviors. I understand the fragility of the heart, the dark and winding paths that are possible for the mind to follow, and the effects which play out in the body. Moments that are beyond our comprehension, beyond our control, that play out in a narrative that is not of our choosing. It is my passion to come alongside the individual – child, adolescent, teen, young adult, adult – to help bring light to the darkness, and to walk with the family to develop new ways of seeing one another and interacting together.

Do you often find it difficult to find the words to describe your feelings? Or to open up to people and feel a connection with them? Or are you a parent who struggles with a challenging & strained relationship with your child? The individual clients I typically work with say they feel like they don't fit in, feel misunderstood, have a lot of chaos in their lives, have trouble relating to and trusting others, & struggle with feelings of emptiness, yet feel intense emotions that they are afraid to express.

Anxiety, hopelessness, irritability, distrust, trouble sleeping, lack of motivation, and low self-esteem are all signals that your body is trying to process and cope with something. Your past experiences and present environment shape the way new dynamics, trauma, interpersonal relationships, and loss affect you and this is different for each person. You may notice changes in your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings; perhaps new physical symptoms. Disruptions in connection, contentment, confidence, and peace happen in life. Together, we will identify your body’s signals, and the areas of your life you would like to be different.

If you’ve ever felt numb, disconnected, or so overwhelmed by emotion that you act out impulsively, you are not alone. You might feel like you don’t know yourself anymore, or like you never knew yourself. You might feel like you’re losing control or feel hopeless about finding happiness, contentment, or safety. Trauma or other intense life stressors can cause problems for mental well-being in all parts of life. I completed my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNT Dallas and have completed EMDR training. I have experience and training with trauma, abuse, addiction, dissociation, ADHD, and related issues.
