About me
I am an experienced Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years dedicated to helping individuals and couples cope with the effects of Trauma on their relationships and ability to do self care. I specialize in relational, childhood, and masking trauma. I am collaborator, teacher, guide, supporter, and co-regulator.
I am a curious, empathic, skilled, honest, kind, and sometimes silly therapist. I value safety, authentic connection and trust building. I approach as eclectic, combining challenging our thinking with listening to and regulating our bodies to heal in mind/body/spirit wholeness. I am Neurodiverse-affirming, Strength-based, and Compassion-focused. I specialize in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( I like the structure of it). I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Autism Spectrum Certified Professional. I am comfortable talking about the uncomfortable things, along with being in the profound silence. !! -- I enjoy sharing my gathered knowledge and experience to help you learn some skills, tools, strategies, hacks, and sometimes even silly anecdotes. I believe we are all in this together. I am a hope holder. I believe trust must be earned. I will meet you where you are, and provide a safe space to just be. We will create a practical safe personalized plan of healing and growth. I offer a 15 minute FREE video consult on my website so we can meet to see if we are a good fit...( and prove I am a real person :) before we began working together. If we are not a good fit I can offer referrals for someone who may be. Looking forward to meeting you soon.
