I strive to provide quality, dependable, and helpful therapy to those in need. I find extreme satisfaction helping people identify areas in their life that are challenging them and helping those individuals find resolution, perspective, and peace. My experience as a counselor includes working with adolescents, adults, and couples in areas of transition, crises, personal growth and development, divorce, strengthening relationships, communicating more effectively, weight and eating issues, anxiety, academic issues, blended family structures, identity crises, depression, women issues, sexual dysfunction, grief, and gender issues.

It is tough times right now! People are struggling. I am here to give you the tools to feel better and to heal whatever you have gone through. I help people work through addiction recovery, anxiety, depression and difficult relationships. Having a strength-based approach that focuses on wellness and getting unstuck from repeating cycles is the approach I take. I work with anxiety, OCD, depression, addiction (alcohol, sexual, drug, spending, overeating, and work). I also work with chronic pain issues from a place of helping people express emotion. I do both in person and teleconferencing counseling at this time.

As a mindfulness-based counselor, I help individuals, adolescents and couples transform their struggles into opportunities for growth, learning and adventure. I help you turn your problems into pathways. This journey is an opportunity to unearth the home that is your deep and abiding sense of self. Drawing on nature wisdom, archetypal patterns, myth, mindfulness and the mind-body connection, I am here to be a guide as you dive into your own depths. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey toward wholeness, freedom and purpose.

I have 12 years providing services to the community and specializing in the recovery from trauma. I will partner with you in your healing through a framework that is holistic, feminist, trauma-focused and informed by my long experience working with domestic violence. Systems of oppression are often the root cause of anxiety, trauma and suffering that survivors experience in our culture. I work with a focus on the recovery and reclamation of your unique authenticity and identity, which often gets lost through the experience of trauma and oppression.

I help survivors of trauma and difficult childhoods reclaim the peaceful, joyous life they deserve. Survivors can be stuck in states of anxiety, depression or shame, have unusual medical issues, and may not even remember the event(s). Focus issues, low self-esteem/assertiveness and problems trusting are also common. If this is you, please know we can work towards freeing you from the invisible grip of the past. We'll first establish a safe, open relationship and help you reconnect to the peace and strength in your body. At your own pace, we'll heal trauma and relational wounds using body-based talk therapy.

Everyone needs a little help every now and then. Therapy can be a valuable tool to receive help and learn skills to cope and grow into a stronger person. I provide individual and family therapy to adults, children and adolescents that are experiencing different issues such as anxiety, depression, family conflict and disruptions, peer interactions, life transitions and LGBTQ+ issues.

I specialize in working clinically with couples and individuals struggling with many different kinds of issues. I enjoy working with folks struggling with religious trauma and abuse who might be trying to find their way into a spirituality that works for them, couples who are trying to reconnect and find the thread back into deep relationship with each other, artists/musicians/poets who may have lost their creative spark due to burnout, and college students/young professionals who are trying to discover who they are and who they want to be.
