Work With Me

Life is messy, and you may struggle with depression, anxiety, internal struggle, or the effects of untreated trauma. Grief and loss, relationship challenges, and identity confusion can create complexity and pain. Emotional regulation can be challenging. Shame and unhealthy behavior patterns can feel overwhelming. 

​

People I work with learn self-care skills that stem from love, not restriction or punishment. We work with all your parts (the little baby, child, teenager, perfectionist, and so on) to learn self-love and compassion.

Currently pursing my Masters degree in Counseling, I have a Bachelor's degree in psychology and certifications in Holistic Health and Professional Recovery Coaching. I've got more than three decades of training and education, but it's compassion and intuition that truly define me. My style is a heart-centered, no BS blend of compassion and humor (because growth can be fun!) Using a trauma-informed lens, we work with trauma, family of origin wounding, and systemic injustice.  Together, we explore negative self-talk and core beliefs so that we can give the sweet little soul inside the loving attention she's starved for. You are lovable and worthy simply because you exist.

Ultimately, you are the expert on YOU, which means that our relationship is built on collaboration. I use a client-centered, relational approach based in warmth, trust, and empathy.  I offer compassionate listening and support, evidence-based practices that invite deeper self-awareness, and coping skills that  facilitate change, post-traumatic growth, and personal empowerment.
