I'm a trauma trained Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping people live happier and healthier lives. As a mother of three young and very active children and counselor of 14 years, I appreciate the demands and stressors life can bring, as well as the toll it can take on mental health. My journey as a counselor has brought me a range of experience working with trauma victims in a clinical setting as well as working with children, teens, and families in the school setting. I typically utilize a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach, but pull from other approaches to best meet my clients' needs.

My ideal client who is someone that not only is ready for counseling, but is ready to do the work that comes along with it. I often share with clients, that the session is the easy work. After you leave session and return back to your daily routine, that is the hard work. However, acknowledging that you are ready for a change and also acknowledging that this is work, I am happy to work with you.

Now taking Aetna and Cigna. Taking new adults, teens, and kids now! Are you or your child feeling like there are no choices and you are just swept along by the current? Do you often feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety and you don't know where to start or which direction to go? Does low mood sometimes leave you feeling like you have nothing left to give? Does your anger bubble over and you just don't feel like yourself anymore? Living with anxiety, depression, stress, or resentment can feel unbearable. You don't have to merely "survive" life though. You can live in, direct, and thrive in your life again or for the first time.

I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and children.
I believe a good counselor works their way out of a job...one client at a time. We all get "stuck" in life from time to time. My goal is to provide you with knowledge, tools, guidance, and support so that you can get "unstuck" and move on. Therapy is not magic...but it works. If you are struggling with emotional, behavioral, or relational problems I would like the opportunity to visit with you to see if I can help.

Trauma turns your world on its head, not only through the event but the aftermath. Anger, grief, confusion- all of these responses may come out of children, teens, and even adults by lashing out, throwing tantrums, making impulsive decisions, losing focus, and withdrawing from friends and family. These big changes are hard to process and can cause not only your child but you and your family to struggle. You're tired of trauma stealing the family, the child, the life you had before. You need someone to walk with you through this, and I'd love to be that person.

I counsel adults and children who experience symptoms of anxiety, mood disorders, and PTSD, as well as those who report suicidal ideation and self-harm.
Life can be difficult—full of struggles, challenges, changes, and the unexpected. We keep these events in our minds, whether at the front to consciously influence all of our decisions, or packed away in a box in a corner, to be dealt with ‘in the future’. When your box begins to overflow or you realize that it is time to open it, I’m here to help you unpack, sort, and re-pack the box. My goal is to help you regain control of the box, so that the box no longer controls you.

I also have extensive experience working with children & adolescents.
Broken. Depressed. Desperate. Afraid. Falling apart. That's how many of us describe ourselves and/or our relationships. We assume or convince ourselves that there is no alternative and should get used to it, or get over it. But how? As you well know, it is not that simple. Counseling and therapy is about the courage to be vulnerable, and learning to walk through the brokenness of our lives with hope. Whether your struggle is with depression, grief, anxiety, marital conflict, infidelity, trauma, parenting, or something else, there is hope.
