What we tell ourselves is powerful. Our thoughts have an amazing influence over how we view ourselves and relate to the world around us. I often tell my clients that being aware of the connection between what we think, what we feel, and how we act is the " secret to life." This is often the first step in helping us make the changes that we want and/or need to make. Trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I am excited to offer groups, individual, and family sessions rooted in this model of therapy.
Reflecting on one's past, recognizing present strengths, and setting goals for the future can be instrumental in achieving the life one desires. As a licensed professional counselor and certified professional recovery coach, I work closely with my clients to develop a personalized plan that meets their unique needs. I build genuine relationships with my clients based on trust and empathy. My comprehensive approach provides individuals with a safe and inclusive environment to explore their personal and professional aspirations. I offer a supportive and non-judgmental space where my clients can feel heard and understood.
Complex trauma can be a stubborn and unwanted life companion. Living through repeated exposure to traumatic and harmful experiences can leave you feeling unable to trust yourself or others, seeing yourself differently, and feeling chronically unsafe. And alongside those wounds, complicated grief can also be woven into the mix of post-traumatic pain.
Complicated grief is so much more than “just” a loss - it’s anger, sadness, guilt, and confusion surrounding losses that can’t always be easily defined. As a licensed professional counselor with a special interest in trauma treatment, I understand the profound impact these experiences can have on an individual’s emotional well being.
Hi! I'm a private practice therapy specializing in teens and young adults. I've spent years working in schools, homes, community settings. I am passionate about helping my clients flourish and thrive. We all have so many setbacks and struggles. I believe that there is hope and healing for everyone. Sometimes it doesn't look like what we expected and often times, doesn't happen in our timing. But learning to work through and accept challenges as they come is what creates resilience, strength, and the ability to navigate whatever comes our way.
We offer counseling that combines the best of psychology with Catholic spirituality. In doing so we can treat the whole person, which can lead to the best outcomes. We believe that while psychology is a great tool that can help us understand people and relationships, God is the ultimate healer. We want to help people heal from their wounds, resolve problem issues, and have the healthy lives and relationships that God wants them to have

I am Jungian, feminist, and cognitive/behavioral in orientation, and use a blend of appropriate orientations.
My patients and I work together to develop unique approaches to their therapeutic needs that blend their individualities, objectives, and preferences with the options available among today's state of the art treatments. I try to contain potential crises to promote stability during difficult work.
