Great to meet you!

Let's talk! I am here to listen to you! I specialize in working with individuals & assisting them with exploring how traumatic experiences have impacted their self-worth, reactions, responses, & relationships. No matter how big or small your traumatic experience was, I will show you that it does not define who you are. I believe that everyone can surpass challenging experiences. I will work alongside you & support you in unpacking hurtful feelings, managing stressors, & improving relationships.

My approach to therapy

Can my life be restored? This is a question that you may pose to yourself. I utilize a cognitive, strengths-based approach. During our work together we’ll practice grounding techniques, implement ways to set boundaries, re-connect you with your body, gage personal strengths, and process painful experiences. Allow me to introduce you to your healed self.

What you can expect from me

During this journey together we will work to restore your peace, happiness, and fulfillment. You can live abundantly after trauma. From the comfort of your own home, we will collaborate via video, making services even more convenient for you. Congratulations on taking the first step! I look forward to working with you.
