About Me
My therapeutic approach is relaxed, down-to-earth, friendly and strength-based. This practice is sex-positive, trauma-informed, weight-inclusive, and affirming of folks from LGBTQ+, Kink, and Polyamory/Consensual Non-Monogamy communities. I work well with women ages (18-60) who struggle with stress and learning to balance their needs with the needs of their loves ones. I also work well with people who want to heal from a past trauma, increase their self-esteem, develop healthier parenting skills, and those who struggle with panic attacks, OCD, job stress, grief/loss, family caregiving stress, emotional eating due to stress, depression, burnout, body image issues, anxiety, aging concerns, adjustment disorder, pregnancy loss and miscarriage.
Education & Experience
I hold a post graduate certificate in play therapy from Capella University and a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands.
