Working with client's with various needs such as trauma, health/chronic pain, TBI, Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), eating disorders, depression/anxiety, behavioral and conduct issues, and relationship conflicts has given me a broad range of experience.
We can make peace with your emotions. I see them as the roadmap to change. Your body knows what you need and will make you aware of those needs if we can help you attune yourself to them. Skills and strategies are a good way to keep yourself functioning, but sometimes people still find themselves returning to the same patterns when they use skills alone. My goal is to join with clients in their experiences to address personal, relational, and emotional patterns to find different ways of being. This includes incorporating culture, beliefs, family systems, personal strengths and positive ways of functioning to find lasting change.

I firmly believe that peace and even happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times. When life brings adversity, trauma, or illness, it can alter our perspective, often leading to depression, anxiety, internal struggles, and a sense of hopelessness. Therapy represents a partnership between two individuals embarking on a healing journey together. As healing progresses, it creates opportunities to rediscover peace and happiness.

I am also trained in EMDR Therapy, a "gold standard" model that helps the brain process trauma.
The fast pace of modern life often conflicts with the natural way our brains and bodies respond to multi-tasking, managing stress, and maintaining relationships. It can be hard to find moments of peace or feelings of safety, and even harder to get our minds to calm when we have that space. This can be especially challenging when we have had traumatic experiences or ongoing mental health concerns. If you are struggling with challenges, relationships, life transitions, or mental health, you aren't a failure. You just may need to learn a different way of approaching these problem and to learn to trust all the parts that make up you.

I specialize in helping women and teens through challenges and trauma.
Anxiety and depression are heavy and hard to work through alone. But you don't need to do this alone. Sometimes, we feel hopeless and worry we'll never be happy again, often overwhelmed with everyday responsibilities. Our mind races, never turning off and balance can be hard to find. Do you judge yourself unkindly? Do you compare yourself to others who seem to 'have it together' while you feel like you're falling apart? If you're experiencing any of this, it's real and overwhelming. Perhaps you feel lost and would love some direction and support- someone to talk to? You can feel better. Come find hope and peace again.

When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
