You are likely reading this because you are looking for something in your life to be different. You (or your teen) may be struggling with emotions and moods, anxiety, grief, relationships (with self and others), parenting, communication, school or career. I work with people to identify what is working and what they would like to be different, and then work on the how. It is important to me that you feel seen and heard, and that our work together is of value to you and your life.
When your relationship is broken, the pain can feel frustrating or overwhelming. At Plum Tree Counseling, our therapists can help you to regain your sense of peace, joy, and hope for the future in your relationship. Or if you are in the process of or needing to get out, we can help you maneuver those waters with more sanity and peace of mind. Help is only a phone call away!
I became a therapist because I believe that everyone deserves to have a gentle, non-judgemental listening ear while attempting to problem solve some of life's most difficult moments. For me, the therapeutic relationship is a special connection that allows for creativity, exploration, discovery, and empowerment.
I feel deeply honored to support people through the perinatal and postpartum period, grief and loss, or the exploration of ADHD and autism. Navigating these experiences can feel overwhelming, lonely, and sometimes scary. As a therapist dedicated to creating space for all people, my approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and deep respect for your personal story. Whether you're a new parent adjusting to the complexities of this transformative time, someone experiencing profound loss and grief, or seeking to understand yourself better, I am here to listen and support your exploration, healing, and growth. Above all, my aim is to empower you to create a life that is deeply fulfilling to you.
Depression and anxiety can impede our judgment, making us feel disconnected from the world around us. This can result in feelings of paralysis, an inability to create necessary changes in our lives, and a persistent engagement in negative and damaging patterns of thoughts and behaviors. You don't have to go it alone. I can support you in your efforts to change.
I am an empathetic, compassionate, engaged therapist who has been extensively trained in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, parenting, eating disorders, and more. I use evidence based modalities, such as CBT, ERP, and DBT. I fully believe that our minds and bodies are connected, and bring my knowledge, skills, and training as a yoga and meditation teacher into my sessions with client.
I am committed to you as a vibrant, connected, unified being. I recognize all of our potential to heal and to be whole! I invite you to partner with me to embark on your journey of creating lasting transformative growth and ultimate well-being. "The only journey is the journey within"

How would you feel, if you had a counselor that was willing to meet you right where you are using her clinical expertise, compassion and lived experience to walk alongside you on your life journey, with no judgment, to help you navigate life challenges and achieve your desired goals by understanding your unique situation and aspirations?
If you have a history of trauma, relationship issues, mood instability, harmful habits, or low self-esteem, I'd love to meet you. I use my training and experience in IFS, ego state therapy, and other evidence-based modalities to support people in healing past wounds, working through current issues, and building the life they desire. We will come up with a plan that feels comfortable enough for where you are right now, but also ultimately moves you forward. My style is warm, honest, nonjudgmental, and down-to-earth. Please reach out to schedule a complimentary consult or your first appointment. I look forward to meeting you!
I find a great importance in connecting with individuals who feel disconnected, ashamed, marginalized, or stigmatized. It is my responsibility to offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and open atmosphere for expression. We often feel certain subjects/experiences are not to be acknowledged or discussed. I welcome those challenging subjects/experiences to be expressed at my practice.
