Welcome! I am a warm, non-judgemental and real person. One of my basic tenants is we, as people, are doing the best we can, and sometimes our conscious or subconscious "plan" to take care of ourselves is just not working anymore. Sometimes we need to develop a new “plan” but that can be difficult and we need help. The relationship with ourselves, family, friends and our community is a pillar to good health and well being. However things get in the way….like trauma, substance use, addiction, depression, anxiety, loneliness, illness, & fear. I want to support your concerns and help you improve your sense of wellbeing.

My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Exploring the relationship between core values, feelings and behaviors can help enhance our self-awareness. We can then support the development of coping skills to choose behaviors, modify our thoughts and shift our feelings.
Strength-Based
We all have strengths, needs abilities and preferences. We will use these to help develop your treatment plan
Gestalt
I work from a framework that we have an inherent need to relate to others, ourselves and our communities and I help you do this by enhancing your self awareness. With deeper understanding you will be able to learn new insight and skills, and repair the relationship with yourself, and if you are interested, with others.
Trauma Informed Care
Trauma and relational ruptures shape how we see ourselves & the world around us. It directly impacts our relationships, self perception, coping skills, self esteem, etc. A common way to manage the impact of trauma is through unhealthy or addictive behaviors. I can offer you guidance through intense emotional experiences with non-judgment.
Motivational Interviewing
My framework is based on the principles of increasing your awareness, freedom, and self-direction. I will help support you move through your change process. I also believe that exploring and understanding how our feelings, thought and behaviors are related can impact our wellness, and bringing a mindful approach supports identifying and understanding the mind body connection to health.
