Recognizing the need to get help with your mental health takes courage. I am here to collaborate with you to identify goals and work through difficulties. Addressing change can help you to experience life to the fullest. Barriers like trauma, addiction, anxiety, and depression can prevent you from experiencing wellness and living a healthy life. I have spent the last few years as a therapist working with all kinds of people to support stability and find fulfillment. When you commit to self-care through therapy, you can achieve a life worth living.

As a therapist, I support and encourage people to improve their lives by identifying their abilities and potential. The opportunity and experience of participating in a therapeutic relationship is a privilege. Being present and able to support people having difficulty in their life is the best type of work. I feel honored to partner with every person that participates in therapy with me. Being vulnerable and authentic for the purpose of self-improvement is brave and difficult. It would be my pleasure to collaborate with you to get to a place of self-understanding and healing using wellness practices.

My experience and background give me the ability to connect with a variety of needs including complex trauma, loss, parenting, and life transitions. I am enthusiastic about working with adults and teens in mental health recovery, co-occurring intellectual disabilities, and neurodivergence. My focus is on healing through engaging in all areas of wellness through cognitive and behavior change. I emphasize finding resilience and joy within by overcoming challenging thoughts and behaviors. I am dedicated to supporting people in identifying ways to live life by creating a healthy, safe, and inclusive therapeutic experience.

Through my work as a therapist in Integrated Health Care, I have found the value of empowering clients to gain independence by maintaining healthy boundaries and expectations. Your ability to guide your own recovery, wellness, and autonomy in your life is necessary for successful therapy. Additionally, I have experience working in group settings for children and individuals with intellectual disabilities, in patient treatment, and child welfare. I have received training in the following evidence-based approaches: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Individual Resilience Training (for First Episode Psychosis), and Motivational Interviewing. I have a specialized endorsement from the Charles E. Lakin Foundation on Understanding Populations with Mental Illness and Cognitive Limitations.
