About My Clients
I work with adults who are struggling with symptoms that result from traumatic experiences. If you are ready to work hard and commit to applying the skills you learn, you will walk away from counseling with the tools you need. I will help you with symptom reduction and provide skills to practice between sessions so that you can become self-reliant. I believe you can achieve healing and growth with the appropriate tools. I will guide you through skills development and processing of past trauma.

Counseling can transform your life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Not only do I bring to the table many years of experience and education, but I also understand firsthand how some of these issues can complicate life. I have overcome many difficult times and I believe you can too. I approach therapy with an open mind and without judgment. I will use your strengths to help you achieve your goals. When I am not working, you will find me running around with my young daughter, exploring in nature, and trying new recipes. I have a young daughter who keeps me on my toes, and I am absolutely in love with her. For fun, I like to listen to music, work in the garden, watch movies, and try new restaurants. I am also a Pinterest fanatic and enjoy DIY projects.
