Even the most self-aware humans can experience periods of confusion, stuckness, and destabilization, and oftentimes suffering has unconscious roots. I've dedicated my training and education as a helping professional to learn how to unlock messages from the unconscious to promote healing and well-being. I also strive to arm my clients with concrete tools to use independently, long after our work together is completed. I have many years of experience helping people heal, blending a variety of nontraditional and expressive therapeutic approaches with evidence-based interventions to meet the individual needs of the people I serve.
Specializing in trauma of all kinds, I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist (LCAS), Certified Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) Practitioner, and have a Masters Degree in Art Therapy. I'm also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
I commit to genuine connection, direct communication, mutual trust and collaboration, and strive to create a warm, safe place for self-discovery and healing to occur. I believe we are capable of identifying internal resources to overcome obstacles and reach our fullest potential. Call or text me at (828) 367-7077 to partner in your personal healing journey.
