I have a passion for helping folks find their way back to a place of inner peace, happiness, and connection. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma/PTSD, relationship challenges, depression, and anxiety. I am a certified provider of Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD and the Dignity Model for Transgender healthcare. I believe that healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship – you no longer have to approach these challenges alone. Together, we create a safe space to explore your emotions, fears, and hopes without judgment. We will work to tailor therapy to your individual needs and goals, and to uncover the strengths and resilience that reside within you.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we'll begin with getting to know each other and discussing what brought you here. We'll explore the main issues you're dealing with so I can develop a personalized approach to guide our future sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strength lies in creating a safe and supportive environment for all clients, grounded in deep respect and empathy. I understand that our behaviors are natural responses to our environments, and as a fellow human, I won't judge you. Instead, I will help you identify and analyze patterns that are no longer serving you.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I am best qualified to serve clients with trauma histories who are seeking support in healing and transforming their lives. My approach focuses on teaching practical skills to help regulate the nervous system and achieve a balanced, fulfilling life.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Processing (CPT)
CPT is specifically designed for people dealing with trauma. It helps you process and make sense of traumatic experiences, reducing their negative impact on your life.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. It's like re-training your brain to respond more positively and constructively to life's challenges.
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
REBT focuses on identifying irrational beliefs that cause emotional distress and replacing them with more realistic and healthy thoughts. It's about learning to think in ways that lead to better emotional well-being.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
ACT encourages you to accept your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them. It helps you commit to actions that align with your values, leading to a more fulfilling life.
Strength-Based
This approach emphasizes your personal strengths and resources. It helps you build on what you're already good at to overcome challenges and improve your well-being.
