As a licensed professional counselor and certified veteran and military mental health provider, I believe sharing openly and honestly about our struggles is powerful. I have been working in the mental health field for over 20 years and have experience with many populations, however over the past several years I have moved my focus to working with adults struggling from complex and systemic trauma, grief, and stress management concerns.
Life's difficulties take many forms and may be uncomfortable to discuss, but often our tendency to hide them or wait for them to just go away leads us down a road of isolation and anger. Therapy is a place to seize control of your path and regain control of your life. We will work together to identify your treatment goals, challenge unhealthy thinking patterns, and learn new skills to help you adequately handle life’s stressors, manage traumatic events, and develop healthy coping skills.
During our initial meeting, you will have the opportunity to share your story and discuss what you hope to gain through the therapeutic process. We will then work collaboratively to identify your specific treatment objectives. From there, my hope is to create an open and authentic environment where we can explore the relationships between your experiences, thoughts, and feelings and help you reach (and exceed) these goals!
