Welcome

Coming to therapy can be an exciting and scary experience, either way, my focus is to work alongside you through whatever brings you to therapy. As we start to get to know each other and I have a clear understanding of what troubles you, we will work together to accomplish those needs and create goals specific to your desired outcome. As a Trauma Informed Therapist, I see and understand your experiences from the viewpoint of, what happened to you and how can I help? I utilize EMDR or trauma work to help get you through these troubling times. My approach is honest, empathetic, and truthful.

Why Therapy?

  • Anxiety

    Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, difficulty managing daily functions? Body tension, sleep disturbances, increased irritation, excessive worry and inability to “turn brain off,” therapy can help.

  • Depression

    Feeling down, lost, hopeless or loss of interest in the hobbies you once enjoyed? Loss in appetite, sleep disturbances, isolation, thoughts of not wanting to be here or active thoughts of suicide, therapy can help.

  • Trauma

    What is trauma? The dictionary defines it as a deeply distressing or disturbing experience. I would add that everyone experiences trauma differently, and what has happened to you, therapy can help.

  • Life Transitions

    We all go through life transitions, planned or unplanned. Divorce, death, move, college, loss of job, retirement, marriage, etc. Sometimes these transitions are too difficult to find routine and to function through them, therapy can help.
