About me

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. My passion for counseling started in 6th grade where I was nominated to be a peer counselor and I saw the power of how communication, active reflective listening and conflict resolution could shift relationships. I grew up in a chaotic household and studying psychology helped me to develop compassion, empathy and understanding where there was profound pain. My own experience with trauma, depression and anxiety helps me to understand clients from a lived perspective.

Get to know me

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

In our first session, I will tell you a little more about my background so we can deepen our relationship and begin to build trust. Then I will go over the risks and benefits of treatment and what to expect from therapy. Next, we will discuss the limitations of confidentiality. The rest of the session will be about YOU! I will complete a biopsychosocial assessment so I can determine your needs and goals for treatment so we can make sure I am a fit for you and we can get started on the amazing work of healing and building your dreams.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am an action oriented clinician. I am able to get to the root causes of issues very quickly and I believe clients are the experts in their own lives so I am an excellent motivator in helping clients to believe in themselves to take the necessary steps to create huge and dynamic shifts to attain the goals that have been on hold or that needed that final push.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I will work with you to break the chains of multigenerational trauma, abuse and addiction in your life and in your family. You are the catalyst for change in your life and I am going to remind you of who you really are so you can learn to love yourself fully again. Let’s do the work together in facing the barriers blocking you from being your healed self.

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I teach DBT skills and groups and how to get your needs met in healthy ways. In practice I work with patience to learn how to cope with uncomfortable emotions and learn to love themselves again.

Attachment-based

I help client to examine early life experiences and how they have impacted how they see and interact with the world now. I help clients apply strategies to overcome the stuck-ness in their current relationships so they can heal and build new healthy relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I walk along clients and pick apart the thinking that has been destructive and playing like a broken record in their mind so they can create a new song for their future healed self. The story they create is already living inside of them, so I help the client to uncover the inner strengths they left behind because of trauma.

Family Therapy

I work with patients to deconstruct multi-generational trauma and abuse cycles that seem like a curse at times. I look at fundamental ways that patients can be the key to stopping those cycles and the healers in their families from the inside out.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

I am trained in health and wellness strategies including meta-meditation to encourage clients to be in the present moment and experience being in their bodies in a more safe and connected state.

I appreciated being pushed out of my comfort zone to try new methods to help while I'm on a healing journey. I'm learning of how I can take care of me since my life has been taking care of others. I'm battling grief but today I tried meditation and it was amazing and what my mind, body and soul needed.
