Even the wildlife needs therapy. 😃

Hello community. I currently have a few openings in my schedule, so if you know of someone who would benefit from my expertise, please send them my way.

As many of you know, I have 26 years of experience as a licensed masters-level psychologist. I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of trauma, shame, depression and anxiety. My approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a deep respect for the soul's wisdom. I utilize a variety of humanistic techniques as well as cognitive behavioral therapy, somatic release, Internal Family System, and ancient teachings of the chakras, reiki and shamanism. I also have legitimate training in treating trauma.

My role is to enable individuals to uncover their inner strength , resilience and to guide them in remembering who they really are.

I believe in creating a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their feelings and experiences. Together, we will work to identify patterns that no longer serve them, utilize techniques that help them heal from the trauma they have experienced, develop helpful coping strategies, and foster personal evolution. I am here to empower clients on their journey toward healing and self-discovery and to assist them in remembering their authentic Self.

If someone you know is seeking to address past traumas, manage anxiety and depression, or cultivate a deeper understanding of their true authentic Self, I am here to assist.

As a licensed therapist, I choose not to accept insurance due to the pervasive issues within the insurance system that often prioritize diagnostic codes over the unique needs of individuals. This approach can lead to a one-size-fits-all mentality, where treatment is dictated by what is covered rather than what is truly beneficial for the client. Additionally, the extensive red tape involved in securing services can create barriers that hinder timely access to care. By opting out of insurance, I can focus on providing personalized, effective therapy without the constraints imposed by insurance requirements. I do work on a sliding fee scale and I take HSA.

I invite you to reach out for a free 30 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

And really, aren't we all survivors?

Each of us is working through something, trying to overcome challenges, letting go of the past and moving forward with life.

Let's celebrate our tenacity, our persistence, our courage, our willingness to keep going despite setbacks, sidetracks and tough times.

Take a few moments in your day to honor and celebrate your victories, no matter how small they may seem.

Keep moving.
Keep growing.
Keep surviving.
Keep on keeping on.
Upward and onward.
