My clients would say I am kind, caring and empathetic. I am knowledgeable about therapy and how it works. I believe the best thing I can do is listen.

I use a mostly psychodynamic approach while incorporating other helpful techniques. All this means is I believe that the past influences how we behave and think today. I help clients examine old thoughts and behaviors to help create new ones.

We will discuss how ages 1-18 shaped your life in effort to figure out how you got to where you are. We will examine traumas and hurts that are still affecting you today. We will process feelings, build coping skills, and I will educate you.

Have a history of trauma.

I was an addictions counselor for 9 years. I saw most poor coping skills were caused by trauma and pain. I love seeing my clients grow.

We offer Christian-based therapy if a client is Christian and would like to incorporate their faith. If not that is okay too!
