I've been through a lot in my life. Most of you have too. After all, you find yourself here looking for something. It is my firm belief that each and every one of us has tremendous potential. We all have unique talents and skills, honed and sharpened through our life experiences. These experiences, while crucial to shaping us, can also leave us hurt, confused, numb, or insecure. It is paramount that we stop along our journey to take stock, address our needs, heal, and refocus. Sometimes, we realize we may benefit from having extra support or guidance through these moments. That is where therapy can help. Throughout my counseling career, I have had the privilege of being able to walk beside clients as they process the past, learn to be comfortable in the present, and get excited for the future. I am certified in trauma and DBT, and treat clients with a wide range of concerns. Whether you feel ready to dive into therapy, or you are just contemplating the idea, I'd love to hear from you. I am currently accepting video clients for individual therapy. If you aren't ready to make contact, I have some resources available for self-reflection.

I believe the decision to start the journey toward healing and reconciliation demonstrates a great deal of courage and resolve. Together we can discern a path toward a more balanced and joyful life. Emotional/spiritual growth and symptom reduction are the primary focus of practice. I accomplish this by helping clients understand how their internal life is interacting with outside stressors causing discomfort and impeding growth. I also endeavor to help clients recognize destructive patterns in personal relationships that may be keeping them from further healing. In addition to private practice experience, I also have pastoral/spiritual counseling experience.

In my 16 years as a mental health professional, I've dedicated myself to creating a space where you are the focal point of our therapeutic alliance. My practice is deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, enriched by Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) principles. DBT equips us with a structured yet flexible framework to navigate our emotional landscape. We begin with mindfulness, cultivating an awareness that anchors you in the present and fosters an attitude of self-compassion. Being fully present allows you to engage more authentically with your narrative and the therapeutic process. For those moments when life's challenges feel overwhelming, we'll employ DBT's distress tolerance strategies to help you find a center of calm and resilience. Building on this, emotion regulation techniques are tailored to empower you to manage intense feelings and respond to situations that align with your goals and values. Interpersonal effectiveness is another cornerstone of our work, enhancing your ability to communicate your needs clearly and maintain fulfilling relationships. As we navigate this path, your personal goals and strengths will guide our journey, ensuring that therapy remains a collaborative and validating experience. This integrative approach is about harmonizing the acceptance of your authentic self with the drive for change and growth. It's about building a life that not only endures hardships but also celebrates your unique journey towards healing and fulfillment. I invite you to embark on this transformative journey with me. Discover a therapy that is not just about overcoming, but thriving; not just about healing, but living fully. Start the conversation and explore the possibilities for your path forward by scheduling your appointment. Together, we can craft a life that resonates with who you are and who you wish to become. Your story is waiting to unfold, and I am here to listen, support, and guide you through each chapter.
