Areas of Practice
Individual Therapy
Each individual is unique, having their own strengths, history, struggles, and goals. It is my goal to create a safe space so clients can feel free to explore who they are, what their true goals are, and address areas of growth.

Couples Therapy
Any relationship between two people takes work, no matter the kind of relationship. Relationships need trust and commitment to survive as the relationship evolves over time. Couples therapy helps partners identify and navigate barriers to a happy relationship and implement skills to resolve issues. Whether a couple wants to discover ways to connect on a deeper level or determine if the relationship is working, honest exploration together can help find answers.
Family Therapy
Family is an integral part of society and culture, often providing a base of stability in life. Family therapy gives all members a voice to express their concerns and needs and find ways to effectively show care and support for each other.
Stress/life Transitions
We all face stress in life that does not require mental health services. However, when life seems to toss us many changes at one time or challenges that are unfamiliar, therapy can provide needed relief from stress and assist with determining how to overcome it while discovering your strengths and talents along the way.
Trauma-Informed
While life can bring us much joy and satisfaction, it can also come with stressful traumas that leave a lasting mark on us, disrupting how we would like to live out our lives. What makes an experience traumatic is unique to each person, but trauma does not discriminate with its impact. Therefore, it is important to develop tools and skills to alleviate the ongoing impact trauma can have on our lives.
EMDR
We can all have experiences that seem to stick around and even haunt us, popping up unannounced, contributing to unwanted behaviors, and whispering negativity into our ears. EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a mental health treatment approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the resolution of mental health symptoms from adverse life experiences.
