I know what it’s like to go through hard times and what a difference having a skilled, compassionate therapist can make. For over 15 years, it’s been a privilege for me to do the same for my clients. My passion is helping clients heal from different types of traumas (PTSD, complex-developmental, intergenerational, attachment, religious, etc). These traumas often lead to symptoms of depression, anxiety, impulsive/addictive behaviors, eating disorders, and personality disorders – all which I have experience and success in working with.

I treat these issues with therapy techniques that are proven to help: cognitive-behavioral (CBT), mindfulness, and acceptance approaches (DBT). For clients who are struggling to change, I offer “motivational interviewing”. For issues that require deeper work, I use Attachment-Focused EMDR (more developmental and attachment based than standard EMDR).

For clients whose faith is important to them, I am a seminary trained therapist. It is important that you find a therapist you feel comfortable and safe with. Clients find me warm, trustworthy, committed and professional, yet relatable and genuine. Please reach out, if you would like to learn new coping skills & heal underlying issues.
