About

I strongly believe that every person is stronger than they think, and my goal is to be a gentle guiding presence in your life to help you learn the best ways to motivate and raise yourself up so you can accomplish your goals. In therapy, I take client-centered and psychodynamic approaches to meet you where you are at and explore where you want to be. I believe that you are the expert in your own life and I will help by utilizing the most current and successful therapeutic tools at my disposal. I am an EMDR trained/trauma-informed therapist who utilizes cognitive and body-based skills to help decrease distress and increase positive internal coping strategies. I have worked closely with clients struggling from addictions, eating disorders, mood/anxiety disorders, PTSD, personality and relational trauma issues. I approach each person with empathy and openness to grow as your counselor and walk next to you during your journey. You are incredibly brave for seeking help, when times are the toughest and things feel hopeless. Being open-minded can unlock future possibilities and give you more options to help deal with whatever is ailing you. Your next step is completely up to you, whenever you're ready, to face your struggles and take your life back into your hands.
