Hello, let me be the first to tell you that seeking therapy is a great way to make big changes in your life. I would absolutely love to assist you with making significant changes. You have already taken one step...just keep walking. For over ten years, I have been helping others explore and improve how they relate to the important and necessary people in life. I specialize in relationships and really enjoy couple counseling. I have worked with adult clients on issues related to depression, anxiety, grief and life transitions. I choose from cognitive behavioral, narrative, and family systems interventions to personalize my interventions for clients needs. I also provide psychoeducation by simplifying classroom theories and concepts. After learning something new, clients can then decide how they want to change their own lives. As a married mother of three young children, I stay pretty busy during the day homeschooling. However, I look forward to working online with my clients in the evenings. I love online counseling because of the flexibility it allows me to care for my family while doing what I love which is helping others. My clients report therapy helped them think differently about life. As a result, they feel differently and behave differently. Is that something you want...A difference? If so, let's get started.

Anyone that is choosing to move on to a more fulfilling life, it doesn’t matter where that motivation comes from! It could be from deep inside them or someone else helping them to see the need. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy and hypnotherapy as primary tools for trauma, PTSD, and adverse childhood events (ACE). I have practiced for over 18 years helping people with issues that are disrupting their lives. My specialty is PTSD/trauma, with the unexplained anxiety, depression, and body issues that have no clear physical cause. The accumulation of ACE that may not seem to rise to the level abuse to others or even the person in pain. We can get through this crisis together!
