About

Tell me your story. The Hide Away Project is a safe place for people to get help with such things as pain, loss, discomfort, and stagnancy. Being human means searching for and finding what we want out of life. I believe the key to solving some of life's difficulties involves change on some level. Yet, change takes looking at things in a different way that can be difficult when feeling overwhelmed. This is where I can be helpful because therapy is a collaboration for the development of self awareness to emotions, thoughts, behavior and the creation of strengths, resources and coping skills to manage life.

I have specialty training in the areas of trauma, crisis intervention and have created a safe place to share vulnerable, raw feelings, thoughts and significant events. I contribute skills, knowledge, personal history and resource information to client centered treatment. I believe in meeting the client where they are and working together to identify the best mode of treatment. Treatment models and modalities that I have been trained include; Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person Centered, Person in Environment, Better Outcomes Now, and others.

I believe a professional relationship with clients is the foundation to helping. I truly enjoy hearing people's stories, celebrating a sense of their true self and helping them unleash the power to heal individually and in relationships. Note: I work online part time, I have a private practice, a family, and do not work on Sundays. My schedule includes some evening availability during the week day and a few Saturday morning session times.
