At times, life is overwhelming and complex - trauma and stress can leave us disconnected from our bodies, feeling like we are floating through life, not truly present. After a while, we begin to feel stuck. The things we did to ease anxiety and alleviate the pain are no longer working for us. How do we change these patterns and stop the cycle? It is my goal as a counselor to help my clients become unstuck and find healing. Sometimes, we need a gentle push to simply begin the journey.
I am a Licensed Associate Counselor trained in EMDR and sand tray. My passion is helping people work through identity issues, religious abuse, chronic pain & illnesses, and trauma. I’m devoted to working with pre-teens, adolescents, and adults of all ages with varying concerns. I openly welcome and celebrate all members of the LGBTQ+ community.
As part of Chenal Family Therapy PLC, I consult with our team of therapists and psychiatrists who specialize in different issues, ensuring that all possible treatment approaches are considered. If we encounter problems outside my areas of expertise, I can provide seamless referrals, including testing and medication management, to get you the needed help.
