I believe in you. I believe in your ability to change. I believe you can overcome challenges. I believe you can live the life you want and flourish. While I specialize in trauma, I also have experience and education supporting individuals who live with PTSD, bi-polar, hoarding, ADHD, Autism, emotional eating, anxiety, depression, behavioral issues and relationship and family difficulties. I work with teens, individuals, couples and families.
Counseling Approach
You and your needs always come first in determining how we work together. I specialize in neuro-affirming, trauma-informed approaches to therapy that combine working with the body, mind, and spirit. This holistic approach includes aspects of Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attuned Eating, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Brainspotting.
Professional Philosophy
I consider it a unique privilege to be able to be part of someone’s journey as they seek wellness. I truly believe that healing comes from within and collaborate with you to discover how best to support you. I focus on creating a safe space where you feel supported, understood and valued as we explore ways to face and overcome challenges so that you can flourish, grow, and heal. Allow me to help you discover how to live life the way that best works for you. You are worth the journey. You deserve happiness.
