Individual counseling—

Providing counseling services to adolescents and adults through individual counseling.

It takes tremendous courage to engage in the work of healing from trauma through befriending your mind, body, and emotions. It requires acknowledging and tolerating what you feel long enough to apply kind, caring, self-compassion to all parts of you. It requires vulnerable authenticity. It requires grieving past experiences and taking the risk to engage in new mindful practices that allow for self-regulation, connection to self and others, and the kindness to see yourself as human. 

Approach: My approach is client-centered, strength-based with a trauma focus to meet you in each of your unique therapeutic needs. I will work with you in identifying your goals for counseling and provide a safe place for you to courageously and vulnerably heal by caring for yourself through counseling. I hope to extend unconditional positive regard in the therapeutic relationship while challenging cognitive distortions and providing you with new mindful practices to meet your goals.
