Our Ideal Client

I work with clients impacted by trauma. A traumatic experience is like an injury and can have a long lasting effect on you and impact the way you perceive and interact in the world. If you are an individual experiencing trauma you may have difficulty regulating emotions such as anger, anxiety, sadness and easily feel overwhelmed or numb and shut down. Due to the trauma, our brain operates in a survival mode and finds ways to cope and not always healthy ways.

My Approach to Helping

As a counselor, I will provide a safe environment, a comfortable place to land while we explore and examine how your trauma impacts you daily. In the therapeutic space, I will provide support, psychoeducation, tools and skills that are appropriate to your treatment goals. Through this collaborative process you will expand awareness, grow, heal and as a result cultivate a more adaptive life narrative that will empower and strengthen you. Our fit as client and therapist is essential to your healing process. I hope collectively we can bring curiosity and compassion in the therapeutic space. I am a trauma-informed therapist, my clinical work is integrative in nature. I’m grounded in a Person-Centered Approach that is enhanced by a number of supplemental theoretical orientations such as: Narrative Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Somatic Therapy, CBT, and Parts work (IFS) to name a few.

My Approach to Helping

In addition to being a Trauma informed therapist, I also work with bereaved parents. I am TFMR Mom that had a stillbirth. Through this experience, I have become incredibly passionate about serving mothers and parents who have experienced TFMR (Termination for Medical Reasons), Stillbirths and Child Loss at any point. The grief that accompanies this loss is tremendous and isolating. It would be an honor to walk beside you and support you through this heartbreaking loss and assist you in navigating through your grief. My counseling style is genuine, personable, and creative. My personality is warm, inviting and direct. It is my focus that you feel heard, seen and respected. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey of inner-healing.
