Statement

I am a compassionate, caring therapist who supports holistic treatment for individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and life stressors such a divorce, death and trauma. I have work with trauma patients such as 9/11, veterans and sexual abuse victims. I have expertise in couples counseling as well and have enjoyed that through the years. I believe that healing happens within a strong, trusting relationship. My approach is warm, supportive, and genuinely caring - I strive to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and never judged. Together, we work at your pace to explore what’s holding you back and

My approach to therapy

I have been told I warm and I think that is because I genuinely care about my clients. Real healing tends to grow inside a trusting relationship, so we start there. I move at your pace and ensure you feel safe and never judged. From that footing, we explore what's holding you back, and I care for all of you: mind, body, relationships, and spirit. Faith can be part of our work, or not at all.

What you can expect from me

Reaching out can be the hardest step, especially after carrying this on your own for a long time. You don't need the right words or a plan to begin. A first session is simply a conversation: what's been going on, what you want to feel instead, and whether this feels like the right fit for you. No pressure, no judgment. Message me whenever you're ready.
