About Me

My therapeutic approach is to provide support and feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I am a trauma-informed counselor, understanding the effects and impact of trauma on the person while helping the person move toward a place of strength and healing. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth and balance they are committed to accomplishing. 

For the past 12 years, I have worked in outpatient settings, community mental health, school settings, crisis interventions and have on going experience working with child sexual abuse, physical abuse and neglect. I also have an extensive background leading child and teen groups. I have held a private practice for 6 years.

When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my blended family, walking my husky/lab Molly, snuggling with my two cats, yoga, traveling, art, and being outside.
