Great to meet you!

I am dedicated to the healing of wounds brought on by childhood trauma, relationship difficulties, and the challenges everyday life can bring. I have over 25 years of experience helping women cope with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, abuse and other traumatic experiences. I have extensive training in evidenced based modalities effective in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, and depression. I take a strength-based, whole person and trauma-informed approach to counseling.

My approach to therapy

My approach is to partner with you and focus on the areas of life that are of most concern to you. We will work at your pace to identify your core strengths and values. We will then use these strengths in your healing process.

What you can expect from me

In therapy, you will work to identify self-limiting beliefs and behavior patterns that keep you from experiencing joy and reaching your full potential. You will also tap into your inner strength, learn new ways to cope, clarify your values and define success on your own terms.
