Great to meet you!

Receiving a breast cancer diagnosis can be very traumatic. As someone who has thrived, I help women on the breast cancer journey resolve distressing symptoms, process emotional trauma, and build resilience for better health outcomes.

With over 20 years of experience, I offer compassionate and impactful therapy specializing in trauma-focused therapies. No matter where you are on your path, talking with a professional who understands can make a big difference. Let's take this journey together.

My approach to therapy

I use trauma-informed approaches, such as EMDR, to help patients begin their journey of healing and feel relief from their symptoms. If you seek faith-based counseling, I will provide a welcoming space to integrate your spiritual beliefs into your therapy and promote healing on all levels. My specialized support for cancer patients and caregivers provides tailored services, fostering a sense of community and understanding.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to learn how to navigate and resolve distressing symptoms from the emotional trauma of your journey and gain and a sense of empowerment from our sessions. Through compassionate and specialized care, you will find resilience, hope, and a renewed sense of strength to navigate your journey with greater confidence and emotional well-being.
