I view the healing process as a collaborative endeavor, and I regard you as the expert in your life. I use a strengths-based, solution focused approach to support healthy coping strategies for healing, personal success, and symptom relief.

Healing from trauma is not easy. I don't believe sugarcoating how difficult this process may be, is beneficial to anyone. But you don't have to go through it alone. I have been working with survivors of trauma for the last 6 years. I've specialized in working with survivors of sexual assault, rape, domestic violence, intimate partner violence and abuse. I know picking the right therapist for this process may be difficult, so I encourage having a free phone consultation with me, to see if it feels like a good fit! I'm excited that you've begun this process of healing, and look forward to playing a role in your healing journey.

Life's journey presents unique challenges that require careful navigation through diverse experiences. With over 20 years of professional experience, I have had the privilege of working with a wide array of individuals across various settings, each facing their own distinct challenges. These experiences led me to earn my Master of Social Work (MSW) and become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). For the past four years, I have specialized in individual therapy, leveraging my skills to make a meaningful impact. As an LCSW, it has taught me the importance of focusing on individuals as a whole connecting mind, body, and spirit.

Philosophy of Care: I approach the therapeutic relationship as an essential part of the healing process. Life can present us with many challenges. Many of us pass through experiences that can impact our emotional stability and create struggles to connect with ourselves and with others. I work within the context of the therapeutic setting with a comprehensive approach. I utilize many of the theoretical orientations that I have learned through my years of being a healing practitioner. As a therapist, I strive to assist my clients in increasing their overall quality of life.

I know that mental and emotional challenges, while not always visible to an outside observer, can be incapacitating and that they often have a profound effect on a person’s ability to experience a fulfilling life. Therapy is about healing from painful past experiences, discovering strengths, challenging thinking, improving relationships, and ultimately creating new and rewarding ways of living.

​In my 6 years as an advocate for victims of crime, I witnessed the impact trauma can have on the mind and the body. I am passionate about bringing awareness to the effects of trauma and am actively involved in organizations dedicated to effectively responding to and eliminating intimate partner violence and sexual assault. I understand that for many trauma survivors, healing may seem an impossible task. I believe that healing can be achieved by eliminating feelings of shame and developing effective coping skills through evidence-based treatment in a safe and non-judgmental environment.

You are the expert of you; as the therapist, I am here to learn and create a safe space for you to meet your unique therapy goals.

It is absolutely inspiring to see clients improve their life and relationships, once they understand how thoughts and patterns of behavior effect their wellbeing.

Therapy is a healing process I am honored to experience with my clients.
