You’ve carried the weight of trauma for too long - quietly, often invisibly. Maybe you've learned to survive by staying busy, staying strong, or staying silent. But deep down you know; survival isn't the same as living. Welcome! I specialize in working with adult survivors of childhood trauma, PTSD, and military trauma who are ready to heal from the past and start living more fully in the present. If you're tired of feeling stuck, you're not alone - and you're not broken. There is hope for the possibility of feeling better than you do today.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Therapy begins with a trusting relationship, so it is my goal to provide a safe place where you can talk about difficult things in an understanding and compassionate environment. It is my intention for you to leave every session with more hope for the future and freedom from the past. I really like the quote by Mother Teresa, "Let no one ever come to you without leaving better" and that philosophy is what I strive for in the work I do with my clients. I believe everyone has strengths and that recovery from the past is possible.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths as a provider are my dedication and passion to helping people identify the root of where they feel stuck and finding new ways to move forward. I also absolutely love helping my clients identify and assertively communicate their boundaries with others to improve their relationships. As a seasoned therapist, I have worked in a variety of settings and with various populations, so I attempt to bring all of the knowledge and insight from those experiences into my sessions.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work exclusively with adults recovering from past trauma - including individuals who may have "functioned" for years but know they're still carrying unresolved pain. Many of my clients are professionals, healthcare providers, educators, helping professionals, or creatives who look successful on the outside but are struggling on the inside. I work best with clients who are motivated for treatment, willing and able to actively and consistently engage in their care, whether that is weekly or bi-weekly. Consistency is the key to making lasting changes.
