About My Clients

Currently, I am online only- I have really enjoyed being able to meet clients where they are at whether that is individually, with a partner, or with a family member. Clients I work with come to me when they are looking for guidance and sometimes just a safe place to be seen and heard.

My Background and Approach

As a therapist, I believe that we are ultimately the experts of our own lives. My job in the therapeutic process is to be a part of the journey and assist in making the changes that are going to be more helpful and healing to my clients. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and have been in the field working with youth and adults in various settings. I work with couples, families, and individuals who have a wide range of symptoms that are impacting their daily lives. Some of the common symptoms clients come in for are: trauma, depression, self-harming behaviors, anxiety, low self-esteem, numbing or detached feelings from others, and suicidal ideations. I am a trained EMDR and trauma focused CBT therapist and I also practice with many relational approaches. My specialty is working with military personnel and veterans focusing on trauma symptoms and common issues in relationships due to the military culture.
