I am a licensed clinical social worker and I own Firmly Rooted Counseling & Consulting. I specialize in women's issues, birth trauma, postpartum anxiety/depression, eating disorders, LGBTQAI+ affirming, and body image concerns. Parenting and attachment parenting is also a passion of mine. I love to work with parents brainstorming ways to get through tough situations using positive discipline. I also have a specialty in working with children and adults on the autism spectrum. I approach each client as an individual and cater my therapy techniques to what will work best for that specific client.
For many people, choosing to seek counseling can be a difficult decision. I believe it takes a lot of courage to reach out for guidance and support, which is why I strive to respect client's autonomy, beliefs, and values in the process of counseling. Counseling is the process of discovering your true self and gaining the courage to seek your own path in life. My role is to facilitate this process using a variety of techniques based in a strong therapeutic relationship. I approach clinical practice from a humanistic and interpersonal theoretical model. This means that the importance is placed on the relationship between the counselor and client in order to work collaboratively to assist clients in reaching their goals. I offer services to individuals, adolescents, and couples on a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma in a private and confidential setting. I have experience using CBT, mindfulness, and insight-oriented therapy, which I tailor to the needs for each individual/couple.

I have been working with adolescents and young adults for 15 years. I am passionate about connecting teens and their families with resources to ensure they receive holistic care. I believe that even young teenagers can learn important skills that will support them in living healthy adult lives, and I consider the whole family unit as part of the treatment team. I am also passionate about providing clinical services to women (and those who identify as women). I use a strength-based approach to empower women to find their power and their voice to assert themselves at home, in the workplace, and in their relationships. I specialize in treating school-based behavioral issues, adolescent depression and anxiety, LGBT+ identity, adoptive/blended families, and trauma; and provide parent guidance to caregivers. I also specialize in women's health issues, particularly infertility, miscarriage, and labor/birth trauma. I am a trained doula, which informs my clinical practice. I meet clients where they are, work to establish a relationship based on trust and mutual respect, and together we create a personalized treatment plan that will build upon their strengths and provide skills that address their individual challenges. I believe each and every person who bravely embraces therapy is capable of living an enjoyable life.

Grief and struggle are unavoidable parts of being human, but no one should ever have to bear those burdens alone. Since you're reading this, I assume that you are bravely considering inviting someone in. I believe that the relationship we form as therapist and client can be a safe space for you to cultivate healing and restoration that will spread to other areas in your life. I consider it a great privilege to hold your story with tenderness, safety, and grace as you hold the tension between compassion and truth. You are so much more resilient than you know! I have experience working with a broad range of presenting problems including grief, anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, emotion regulation issues, social skills development, childhood behavioral concerns, parenting, and life transitions. I also have additional training in trauma focused play therapy (ages 4-12), Prepare and Enrich premarital, EMDR, and IFS. Reaching out to a therapist is such a courageous step! I’m so thankful you’re considering inviting me into your story. Feel free to reach out and we can schedule a 15 minute consultation to help you decide if I am a good fit for your current therapeutic goals. I hope to meet you soon!
You already have the answers you need. All you need is someone to listen as you figure out what you already know or encourage you to make the changes you need. You may need permission to take a step, set a boundary, or leave an unhealthy relationship. Counseling allows you to let down walls, process pain, and gain insight from a trusted, neutral person without fear of judgment. I work with adults and couples experiencing relational pain, anxiety, depression, and various life transitions - including premarital. You can always reach out, and I can help determine if we're a good fit. If not, I'll help you find someone who is. I received my Master of Social Work with a concentration in social justice and diversity from the University of Toronto in 2006. I have worked extensively with survivors of abuse and sexual assault - including narcissistic abuse. I also partner with the Reclamation Collective and am passionate about providing support during religious trauma recovery. Life is not meant to be experienced alone. We all have a limit to our capacity to handle overwhelming events and emotions. Painful events do not always result in trauma if you have support. I know how much courage and vulnerability it takes to reach out and ask for help. Your story matters to me, and I look forward to talking with you soon.
