About me

As a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified clinical trauma specialist, my passion is helping my clients discover their strengths. learn new skills, and empower them to create a joy-filled and purpose-driven life. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to release negative emotions and resolve challenges in your life that are preventing you from attaining your personal goals.

Drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, positive psychology, somatic therapy, I guide my clients who are weighed down by life stressors, anxiety, depression, trauma, and attachment and relationship struggles, so that they don't have to face it alone. I provide a compassionate space for my clients to learn new skills, strengthen their resilience, and build more loving relationships, both with others and themselves.

If you are seeking greater self-confidence, joy, peace, and contentment in your life, maybe it's time for a different approach and a breakthrough! Let's work together to create a plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I am here to support and empower you achieve personal growth and meaningful change in your life.

I look forward to working with you!

Valerie is so great at meeting you where you’re at. She is someone I will continue to go back to with her experience annd the connection we’ve built. Valerie leads each session with kindness and positive energy. She is a great listener and I look forward talking with her each week

I’ve only had one session so far, but I really enjoyed it and felt Valerie listened to me, made a point to understand me and gave me some very useful advice.

She’s an awesome therapist. She shows that she really cares. She don’t pull any punches. She doesn’t lead you on so you keep coming back she makes you just wanna come back.

I just love the depth of Valerie's expertise, her background, and how great she is at helping me feel comfortable to share my feelings, my thoughts, and is highly encouraging.
She does a great job of validating my struggles and emotions. Valerie is also very good at being relatable.
Her pleasant tone and personality is an added bonus.
