I believe each person is born worthy and comes into this world with unique gifts and preferences. I work with couples, families, teens, children, and individuals to help explore the roots of personal challenges and transform past patterns into more creative ways of being with self and others. I passionately believe in the innate healing ability of human beings that can be tapped by cultivating authenticity, communication, self-awareness, and advocacy. I work from a holistic, client-centered approach and collaborate with clients on what is working for them, strengths, interests, and where they feel they need further growth and healing. Tapping into hobbies, interests, or spending time in nature can help stimulate important balance in our busy, left-brained, performance-based world. In therapy sessions I incorporate concepts and training from EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, attachment theory, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), and Parent-Child Interactional Therapy (PCIT). I have a passion for supporting personal development and working with people on releasing roots of current life challenges to live a more fulfilling life.
