Hello and welcome! Finding the right therapist can be a challenging task and I want to acknowledge your courage for taking the first step towards creating vital change in your life. When reaching out for help, we all want to feel at ease and comfortable; working with someone free of judgement who treats us with kindness and respect. I am very easy to talk to and my aim is to assist you in obtaining a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I have been working with children, adults, teenagers, families and couples for over 10 years.
I am a nationally certified cognitive behavioral therapist specializing in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression, parental reunification, grief/loss, life transitions and relationship difficulties. I am certified in PCIT and I work with parents of preschool age children drawing from the latest neuroscience related to a child's developing brain.
I seek to blend my knowledge of best practices with the art of providing a safe, supportive and collaborative environment to explore sensitive issues. I also enjoy working with clients who are looking to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into therapy and can provide Christian based therapy upon request.
