What would it feel like to be heard, to know that you are valued and cared about and to believe that there is real hope for your future? Are you struggling, anxious, grieving, overwhelmed? You are not alone. Life is really hard right now. You deserve self care and support. Difficult and painful experiences can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. I offer you a safe place to talk about and explore all those concerns.
Together we will identify specific issues and needs to establish achievable goals. Working collaboratively throughout the counseling and coaching process, we will continuously evaluate your progress as you become stronger and more confident in all of your life decisions.
From me you can expect warmth, empathy, humor and the use of practical tools that you can start applying right away. I will bring to every session an earnest desire to facilitate your growth and healing and will walk alongside you so that you never feel alone.
I work with individual clients and couples from all walks of life. I have more than 18 years of counseling experience specializing in depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, grief and loss and lifestyle adjustments. Most recently I have been serving military families and first responders. I applaud you for taking this first step toward wellness. Please feel free to contact me today!

Written on Jun 12, 2023 after therapy with Edna for 1 month on issues concerning relationship issues
She is the first therapist to actually try and help me with my issues and not just give me paperwork on how to deal with distress. I am grateful to have her since I feel genuinely listened to. I also appreciate that she laughs along with me when I make jokes and doesn't just look at me like I'm crazy for laughing about my problems. Overall, I just appreciate her as a person and resource.

What I find best about Edna is her ability to meet a person where they are at. Whatever subject I am interested in bringing up and whatever emotional state I am in, she's able to meet me there and effectively communicate with me. I think it's a valuable skill she has developed over long practice and I am grateful to get the benefits of it.

Edna has been able to help me rid myself of heavy burdens I have been carrying in my mind for a long time. Just having someone to non-judgementally listen who has helpful insights has been so wonderful! She knows just the right questions to ask to help me identify what has been giving me so much trouble for so long and presents ideas for me to consider to help with healing. I'm so grateful!

Best listener! I am 28 yo female, have a lot of life changes going on and definitely through a lot at her and she was able to help me even from the first session, which was prior therapists I have seen it take much longer. Edna has been able to identify patterns that make so much sense but I couldn’t have put together on my own. I feel better after only 2 sessions. I will be continuing with Edna. Highly recommend Edna!
