About My Clients

You are feeling overwhelmed, like you're barely holding on. Everything is piling up and you can't catch a break, or your breath. You don't like the way you feel about yourself and relationships with others are hard. It’s difficult to tell people no, even when you want to. Maybe you've experienced trauma or life just feels unmanageable right now. You try to keep everything inside, but it’s getting hard to keep pretending that everything is okay. You feel alone in a world full of people.

My Background and Approach

I am a trauma therapist helping people overcome depression, anxiety, and PTSD. By providing online therapy, my clients are able to have comfort and convenience while receiving quality services. I provide a welcoming space that allows for a trusting relationship and self-growth. Clients who work with me appreciate my genuineness and compassion.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I strongly believe therapy is most effective when a safe and comfortable sharing environment is paired with a relationship built on trust and understanding. Through a strong relationship along with therapeutic interventions, I help others navigate through challenging life situations. I believe that counseling is a journey the client and counselor go on together, understanding each person is different and travels on their journey in a unique and individualized way. I have a passion for empowering others, along with helping to provide education and information so you may have a better understanding of the feelings or challenges you are experiencing. Through individual goals agreed upon together, along with trust and compassion, I strive to provide clients with hope and the ability to overcome.
