**Currently NOT accepting accepting virtual or in office appointments at this time.** I'm EMDR Certified and use other skills to work with individuals, families and youth dealing with difficult emotions, major life changes and loss. I have a great desire to assist individuals who may be dealing with court mandates, LGBT, trauma, anger management, domestic violence, substance use, sexual abuse, behavioral issues, ADHD and grief and loss of loved ones. Assist individuals and families to manage issues that impact mental health needs, mind/ body/ spirit connections and learning healthy coping skills to improve quality of life.
Multiple therapy models with a holistic approach to address the importance of change and balance. Encourages individuals to share experiences that work for them and to incorporate new skills that offer support for individuals to seek healthy relationships, increase happiness, ease emotional pain, reduce anxiety, depression and stress.
People want to heal and sometimes that means change but what we need to change can be scary or unknown. Learning to trust and open up with a safe and confidential relationship can also be difficult. As a therapist, my work is person centered with an open and direct approach. Healing is also a sensitive process that takes time with gentle and kind words.
