I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and state approved Supervisor, experienced in providing individual and family counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I am experienced with anxiety, depression, relationship/marital difficulties, grief & loss difficulties, parental separation/divorce, trauma/PTSD, suicidal ideation/self-harm, social phobias, peer relationship and social skills difficulties.
I use an integrative approach, however specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy techniques to guide clients through their difficulties. With the client, I develop an individualized treatment plan to help them construct solutions and develop effective coping skills. I believe people have the ability to overcome problems when provided a safe helping environment to grow the necessary skills for change.
I believe a strong working relationship between client and counselor allows for trust and healing. I am a retired soldier and a military spouse and have seen resiliency at work and believe it resides in everyone.
Reach out today and let's talk about how we can get started. We're here to help.
I am a dedicated/passionate/skilled and caring professional counselor who believes in the healing power of connection, change, and individual empowerment. I work with adult individuals, families, and couples at the weekly outpatient treatment level. I provide treatment services to address depression, anxiety, transition/adjustment issues, emotional issues, OCD, phobias, panic attacks, grief/loss/traumatic grief, trauma, substance use, emotional dysregulation issues, self-harm, stress, suicide ideation or behavior, narcissism or codependency,intimacy and sex issues, and relational issues/disconnection from self. My time in service with the
United States Army and United States government has also contributed to my experience with treating and understanding service related issues. My approach is based on theories that encourage personal exploration of ourselves, our experiences, and how we relate to others in order to gain valuable insight, awareness, and understanding of our emotional/internal worlds to promote/sustain adaptive behavior change, increase connection/congruence with self, and move toward a meaningful and values-based life.Clients working with me can expect a safe, validating, compassionate, empathic, confidential, genuine, and collaborative space where they are encouraged to take the time for themselves and explore what matters most. I believe that the human experience, which is filled with its ups, downs, and challenges for all of us, was never meant to be experienced alone, but rather with the support and trusting connection with other people. This belief is at the core of my practice and ultimately what I seek to provide to every client. I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) who holds specific certifications in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Advanced Compassionate Bereavement Care (MISS Foundation), and am a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional. I am a mom of a young child, a cat-lover, and an aspiring yogi.
