As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor I believe in providing all of my clients with the best therapy possible by using an approach that fits who they are as a person. I want my clients to have a safe, open space to be themselves, ask for what they need, and feel comfortable every time they come in. Therapy is a place of vulnerability that only works if the client can fully engage in the process and feel confident in their therapist. I strive to help clients reach a space where real healing is achieved and to have them leave sessions feeling understood and closer to their goals. While I do provide more traditional talk therapy to those that prefer that therapeutic method, I also believe in trying other approaches to healing. My goal is to provide other paths to recovery and healing by combining different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual. I see my clients holistically and care for their overall health and wellness. Having an integrative approach helps me to meet my clients where they are at in a non-judgmental space and find an approach that works for them. In my career I have worked with adults, children, families, and couples all with diverse backgrounds and mental health concerns. I have specialized in autism, anxiety, depression, crisis, parenting skills and relationship repair. My passion is in therapy and helping others to find the quality of life they are looking for.

Trauma often gets “stuck” in the brain and body, keeping old emotions and reactions alive. My approach combines EMDR therapy with trauma-informed techniques like Parts Work (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EMDR helps your brain safely reprocess memories, allowing them to feel like part of your past rather than a present threat. This is why therapy can actually help — it gives your brain the chance to do what it wasn’t able to do on its own. The sessions are paced to your comfort level. You remain in control throughout, and the process allows your brain and body to work with memories safely. I understand how challenging it can be when past experiences continue to affect your life or when therapy hasn’t felt helpful before. My goal is to provide a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you work with memories that have been difficult to process. It's time to reclaim your life, power and relationships back from what trauma stole from you. Reach out today to get started!
