About
Life often brings challenges, whether they are ones for ourselves or our families. I believe in creating a safe space where individuals feel comfortable, and find acceptance and compassion. Seeking help doesn't make a us weak, it makes us human. Regardless of what has brought you to begin seeking help, and what you might be facing, I believe growth is possible. My experience has enabled me to work with a variety of problems, including anxiety, sadness, past trauma, low self worth, and family difficulties. Let's explore together what's keeping you from living life the way you can imagine. I utilize a relational approach, combining mindfulness, insight, and creativity to assist clients achieve overall wellness. I'm certified in EMDR, and specialize in working with teens and adults dealing with past trauma. The therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of counseling, and here you will find both trust and compassion. Often it is through pushing beyond our greatest fears that we find strength. I believe in the power of connection, and believe strongly in ones ability to overcome life's challenges. "We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty." -Maya Angelou.
