You are welcome as you are.
I know that finding a Therapist can be a difficult and daunting process. You wonder if you will connect with the therapist that you choose and it can be scary to know if they are truly trustworthy. But, the utmost important thing is that YOU feel comfortable. You are being vulnerable and you want to get the most out of this process. Therefore, it is okay to be selfish and choosey in this process and choose the therapist that best fits your needs. It is not an easy process and you get to be the one that decides if they are the right fit for you during your healing journey. I would love to talk to you more to see if we are a good fit. Schedule your FREE 15 minute phone session now. I look forward to your call.
Hi There. Nice to Meet You!
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced Sexual Trauma. I love helping my clients find safety in this world, so they can live a happier and more fulfilling life. My job is to help individuals identify with someone who is safe. Some have never experienced safety in a relationship and while this is a controlled setting, I am still a human being that is engaging in relationship {caring and wanting the best for them}. The healing that comes from seeing that people CAN be trustworthy and that people CAN care is incredible.
After a few sessions of therapy, my clients feel validated, can provide grace for themselves, and start to take their power back! If you are ready to feel inner peace and happiness again, contact me now!

PASSIONATE.I find it as an absolute privilege and honor to hear other’s stories. I am a Therapist that will fully engage and be completely present during my sessions with clients. Being a counselor is not a job for me, it is my passion.
|
EMPATHETIC.I fully accept you where you are at and I strive to collaborate with you as the client, because this is your process and I want you to own it! You get to have a say in what your therapy looks like and work towards the goals that you strive for. I am here to empower and support you in reaching those goals - but you ultimately have to do the work to reach them.
|
NON-JUDGMENTAL.I commend you for making the decision to put yourself first and consider therapy. It is not an easy process to make ourselves a priority. What ever you are struggling with, it is important, and I would love to help support you in your journey. Counseling is challenging, but it is absolutely fulfilling if you are willing to stay the course.
|
PRESENT.It is important to me that I am completely present during our sessions. Not only to enhance our therapeutic relationship, but more importantly, to allow you to completely feel heard. I know that it can be difficult to share the intimate information that you are sharing and I value that.
