About Me
I believe my calling in this world is to walk with people through some of the darker periods of their lives. I look forward to working with you to identify your inner strengths to see that the sun will rise again. I help children, adolescents, and adults alike. I help individuals make connections to their past experiences and their current struggles to resolve past trauma and improve current day functioning. Helping someone set down the shame of their trauma and work to have a different relationship with those memories is an honor and a privilege. If you are looking for a therapist who is authentic and compassionate, can incorporate some humor into the healing process, and can also gently challenge you along the way, I am your person!
Education & Experience
I bring a wide breadth of experience to the therapy setting including previous experiences teaching parenting skills, teaching pre-school, and experience as a children’s mental health case manager. I use my EMDR and AIR Network trainings and their theoretical models to help people overcome the impact of past experiences. I also incorporate a strengths–based approaches with each client to empower them to see how their unique strengths can support them through life’s challenges.
