We all need to feel connected, but building connections can be difficult. My focus is helping clients build connections with meaning and purpose. Feeling safe while exploring new pathways is key to the therapeutic relationship. When working through difficulties and changes in your life, I am here to listen and assist you in developing the gifts and resources you have within and around you. Having moved around in the military as a dependent child and a few times as an adult, I have experienced many of life’s voluntary and involuntary changes.
Areas of Passion I work with couples and families, which includes working with individuals within these frameworks. I am passionate about helping relationships thrive through building understanding and appreciation that reignites or kindles the fire of love that may just be starting or has been lost over periods of stress and strain. I encourage you to have the courage to learn about yourself in our sessions together. I welcome you and all you bring. Together, we will explore new pathways to enhance your life and relationships. The best is yet to come as you embrace the potential you have within. I am open to religious and spirituality exploration if you desire to incorporate that into your therapy. Training As a naturally curious and introspective person, I love to listen, learn, play, and try new ideas. My training as a Marriage, Couple, and Family counselor, a Symbis premarital counselor, and a Gottman Level I & II counselor has enhanced my life. I am here to help you with yours. I primarily use Attachment-based therapy with Cognitive Behavior, Narrative, and person-centered therapy with my clients. I have experience with Eating Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Elderly Caregiving, and Parenting Issues. I am beginning EMDR training in January 2025. I plan to continue learning and growing in my practice. A few of my areas of interest are emotionally focused couple and family therapy, Art therapy, and Play therapy. |
