About My Clients

I specialize in the healing of relational trauma and guiding clients through a holistic and transformative process. I work with adult survivors of childhood neglect, sexual, physical & emotional abuse & survivors of domestic violence. Most clients tell me, "You are not like any therapist that I have ever met before!". I always take this as a compliment. I am so honored and humbled to help people on their journey to healing and I strive to keep therapy relevant and comfortable.

My Background and Approach

My approach is gentle, creative, open, and flexible, recognizing that healing requires an individualized approach. I'm an interactive therapist who won't just sit and nod. I also won't tell you what to do. I will work with you in a warm, friendly, and down to earth way to help you make changes so you can live the life you deserve. Call today and let's get started together!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe we are able to heal relational trauma patterns and their effects on our current life. Relational Trauma typically occurs in childhood and can even be perceived as “normal” behavior. The most common form of relational trauma is a consistent disruption in a child’s sense of love and safety in the family system. It is through these disruptions, and reinforced through cultural and societal norms, that destructive patterns and self-beliefs are born. When left unattended, these perceptions give way to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, codependency, attachment disorders, self-harm, eating disorders, personality disorders and so many other mental and physical health issues. I use a variety of techniques to help you on your journey to wellness. Including somatic techniques, mindfulness, journaling, and grounding technique to reduce the impact of symptoms. We will work on understanding how history of abuse impacts interpersonal relationships and break these patterns.
