I am certified in treating trauma and dissociation, as well as faith de/re-construction and transition.
The most transformative aspect of counseling is feeling safe and supported by a knowledgeable therapist who will listen empathetically and without judgment. Together we will use your own inner wisdom applied as "medicine" to overcome obstacles - whether they are internal (low self-esteem, critical inner voice, shame, childhood traumas) or external (loss of a loved one, partner betrayal, family issues). My style utilizes psychodynamic and relational emphasis, with EMDR support as needed.

Hello and welcome! I am deeply committed to creating a gentle, compassionate space for individuals who have endured complex trauma, C- PTSD, childhood/adolescent trauma, abuse, and neglect and are struggling with self-worth, self-esteem, and relationship issues. Your “negative” or painful emotions are valid and may be a response to unprocessed traumatic experiences. You’ve been in survival mode for years and realized at some point you’d like to feel differently about yourself and your life. Together, we can find enough relief, insight, awareness, and empowerment to untangle yourself from trauma and begin living your life on purpose.

I use a trauma informed approach to therapy, as well as EMDR, CBT, and DBT to help individuals address trauma, anxiety, self worth issues, and challenge negative thinking to build strength and resilience.
So often we find ourselves with negative thoughts and beliefs about ourselves, others, or the world around us that hold us back from understanding or seeing who we really are and what we can become. I seek to help individuals break down their negative or distorted thinking so they can see themselves and the world around them in a more healthy and positive way. I enjoy working with young adults and adults who struggle with a range of anxiety, depression, and negative views of self.
