Areas of Specialty

  • Grief & Loss

    The world feels different. I walk with you through mourning, rebuilding and creating meaning.

  • Trauma & PTSD

    Whether recent or long ago, trauma doesn’t define you. Together, we’ll use safe, research-backed methods like EMDR to help your nervous system heal.

  • Perinatal & Postpartum Mental Health

    From fertility struggles to postpartum depression, I support parents who feel lost in the transitions of parenting.

  • Teens & Young Adults

    Adolescence is complicated. I help teens and adults build self-worth, manage depression/anxiety, and improve relationships.

  • Couples Counseling

    Being in a relationship can be hard and worth it! I utilize the world-renowned Gottman approach to help you and your partner accomplish your goals.

  • Depression/Anxiety

    We all experience stressors. I will teach you new skills to manage your thoughts and emotions so you are not ruled by them.

  • Phase of Life Issues

    Life can throw us curve balls. I’m here to support you in unexpected changes and help you to build resiliency to weather life’s storms.

  • Christian Counseling

    We all believe in something. I help you explore areas of values, purpose, and forgiveness if your faith is something you would like to integrate.
