About My Clients

I have focused a lot of my specialized training on helping clients work through trauma, both past and present. I love working with children and have worked with play therapy clients as young as three for several years now. I also enjoy working with couples and families.

My Background and Approach

Warmth, acceptance, and compassion are the pillars of this practice, and I strive to partner with my clients to help them discover their best selves and overcome the more difficult seasons of life. I genuinely love people, and I place a lot of value on the quality of the therapeutic relationship. I try to foster an open, honest, and warm environment for my clients so that they feel safe to just be wherever they happen to be in that moment. I will sit with and encourage you as you navigate the difficult times, and cheer you on in your victories. Therapy is a team effort, and my intent is to come alongside you and help you reach your goals!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am an Air Force combat veteran and military spouse, so I have a huge heart for the military. I have an intimate understanding of the unique struggles military members and their families face and I enjoy working with veterans or active duty service members and their spouses. I also have specialized training in Christian Counseling and enjoy incorporating spirituality and Biblical principles in my counseling practices when this is requested by my clients.
