My primary goal as a therapist is to provide a safe place for my clients to explore the factors and forces at work in their lives and exert some control over those forces. Only when we participate consciously in understanding the challenges within ourselves and the world around us, can we give direction to and exert influence on them. Everyone has a different starting point and desired outcome in therapy, so we will always begin by identifying your individual needs and goals while forming our therapeutic alliance. It is my sincere desire to help people advance past whatever may be hindering their development and peace. I have worked with adolescents and their families as a high school teacher and counselor for 25 years, before retiring in 2023. During that time, I collaborated with many people with a variety of mental health diagnoses, situational challenges, and histories of trauma which affected their ability to function and thrive. As I have grown in my private practice as an LCPC over the last decade, I have found my strength as a therapist lies in working with adults, especially women, in all stages of life. I also have a strong interest in working with the LGBTQ population and all other marginalized populations. I have completed training in EMDR, EFT, IFS, and continue to study and learn about how we carry trauma and stress in our bodies and the importance of making the connection between the emotions we’re feeling and how they physically manifest in our bodies.
