I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor who has worked therapeutically with clients in institutional and outpatient settings, and in private practice with individuals, couples, and families. My passion is to help people become empowered to embrace themselves and their strengths by helping release their distressing feelings and pain while simultaneously learning healthier coping skills to help you move towards improved day-to-day functioning. I now work exclusively in private practice and specialize in working with pre-adolescents, adolescents, and adults. There is nothing more sacred than watching a person blossom into who they are meant to be as they release the shackles of their disturbances and traumas. Just imagine how freeing it will be to feel happy, joyous, and free!
I specialize in the assessment and treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD) to also include the anxiety and depression that so often accompanies traumatic experiences. Since the beginning of my career, I have worked with wide variety of people who have experienced some form of traumatic experience--including combat trauma, sexual assault, chronic physical and emotional abuse and chronic neglect from parental figures.

I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.
If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world.
You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are.
Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again.
My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.
I consider myself a realistic optimist. I think life can be great, but it can also be complicated, difficult, and
overwhelming. Ultimately, I believe that these difficult times are necessary because they help us become strong, resilient, and better people. It can be hard to recognize when we need help, and even more difficult to ask for it. I am here if you are ready to try.
My person-centered approach will help you gain awareness and understanding of your emotions/thoughts/behaviors, and through increased self-knowledge to make the necessary changes leading to greater life-satisfaction. My hope is that you will enjoy increased peace, satisfaction, positive self-regard, confidence, and connection in your relationships.

If you have unresolved trauma it can prevent you from having connections with others and inhibit your ability to function optimally in relationships. Trauma responses can force you into adaptive functions that leave you feeling stuck. In therapy, the emotional healing work can be done on your inner child to create new narratives and establish positive self-regard. Often people are driven by unprocessed emotions that keep you in a reactive cycle when you are merely seeking secure and loving connections. We can work together to resolve the pain you are feeling and address what you want and need out of your life, your relationships, and yourself. It is never too late to develop resiliency and transform your life. I provide a non-judgmental space to share with safety and compassion and consider it I privilege to understand your experience.
