About My Clients
Do you feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or defeat, as a result of a significant life change or trauma? Maybe a relationship has ended or a new phase of life has just begun. Perhaps you’re living with the long-term effects of abuse, illness/pain or other traumatic experiences. You may feel out of control of your life or emotions. Eventually, these things start to overflow into other areas of life...and yet despite how hard things are right now, you know there’s more to life than this.
My Background and Approach
Clients come to me looking for someone who isn’t cold and clinical, but instead creates a space where they feel safe opening up about some of the most intimate parts of their lives. I will help you break down the negative thought patterns that are holding you back, build healthy coping skills, and finally put down the burdens of your past. With me, you will be met with compassion, respect and understanding. As a therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, chronic pain/illness and addiction, I have the understanding and expertise to help you on this journey.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Having begun my career as a rape crisis advocate, I have worked with and learned from survivors of trauma for many years. This experience has allowed me to create multiple protocols for treating trauma, anxiety and their after-effects, including PTSD, depression, physical pain, negative self worth and addiction. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and Certified Addictions-Informed Professional, I am active in the field and frequently attend workshops and seminars to maintain my familiarity with cutting-edge techniques. I believe we are never done learning, and I am invested in my continual growth as a therapist. I strongly believe in inclusivity and work hard to make my practice a safe place for everyone. With me you will find a safe sounding board to process and explore any areas of need. Together we will create a treatment plan tailored specifically for you, in order to help you navigate and manage current challenges and stressors.
