Don’t Walk This Life Alone
Individual Therapy
We often find ourselves members of “clubs” we never signed up for. Unexpected “club” memberships might include living with anxiety, complex PTSD/PTSD, divorce, single parenting, the challenges of fostering or adopting, loss of a loved one, on and on. I provide personalized one-on-one therapy to help you navigate these “club memberships” so you can thrive instead of survive.
This is designated for individuals to process and explore their thoughts and feelings. Most clients schedule sessions weekly or bi-weekly.
Currently only offering Teletherapy.

Foster & Adoption Parent Coaching
As a former foster mom, adoptive mom, and long time fost-adopt family advocate, I now work with parents needing a safe place to process all of the unexpected nuances of fostering and adopting, including the range of emotion, questions, doubt, fear, and desperate need for actual help in their home and hearts. I offer this as coaching versus counseling because we will focus on present obstacles and hopes in order to move you toward desired results, which you will determine with my facilitation.
Parent Coaching includes an initial virtual workshop followed by weekly or bi-weekly virtual meetings.

Group Therapy
Community is one of the best forms of trauma recovery. Engaging places of safety and belonging begin to rewire injured neurological pathways, resulting in improved personal wellbeing. That’s why I offer a group therapy option: to facilitate this powerful brain work in community so you can heal and grow.
Group therapy includes an initial workshop or training followed by weekly group sessions. Group sessions consist of 90-minute group meetings, once per week for 3 – 6 months.
Meetings are held virtually.

My Approach
My clients are tired of being tired, ready to move from paralysis to growth, and desperate for hope and healing. They want to believe they are worthy of love, hold intrinsic value, and have something positive to bring to the world. They want positive life change and healthy relationships with self and others.
As both a seasoned therapist AND a person who’s walked multiple personal life traumatic events, I am uniquely equipped to come alongside with “I get it” understanding and the professional training to help you move toward health, growth, and freedom from ineffective ways of living. I specialize in trauma recovery and quality of life improvements.
