Message to clients:

If you have experienced a trauma, I would love to work with you. Helping clients heal from trauma, which includes managing their stress and anxiety, is my area of expertise. Additionally, I’ll work with you to improve your self-esteem, improve your quality of sleep, and strengthen your relationships with others. This is especially true with couples (e.g., positive communication, strengthening bonds, improving sexual health/managing intimacy issues).

Though my primary expertise is with individuals who have experienced sexual trauma, I particularly enjoy working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, children and adolescents, families and couples.

Additionally, as a military spouse who has worked in both Family Readiness Groups helping prepare family members for deployment and homecoming, as well as Operation Stand Down providing resources for homeless and at-risk veterans, I have both lived and professional experience with the unique needs and challenges of military family life.

My sessions incorporate elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness practices.

My clients appreciate my ability to actively listen and empathize with the issues they bring to therapy. I have been described as genuine and positive, with a strong ability to motivate my clients to meet their goals.

If I sound like a good fit for you, please do not hesitate to reach out- I would love to hear from you.
