Specializations

  • Individual therapy

    Processing painful experiences is so much easier when you have someone to share in holding the pain. Individual therapy is a space to explore the issues that are driving the problems and find a path toward healing and wholeness.

  • Couples Therapy

    When we are caught in a cycle of dysfunction in our relationships, it can feel difficult to find hope. In couples therapy, we can explore ways to move forward, breaking the cycle of pain, finding ways to connect deeper emotionally and thrive.

  • Families & Children

    The healthier the family system functions, the better off everyone will be. Working with kids and families can create a healthier dynamic in family relationships while improving positive connection.

  • Depression & Anxiety

    Depression can come from feeling stuck, either physically, emotionally or even psychologically. So much of our anxiety comes from a fear of the unknown. Working through these issues can guide you through the fog toward a place of clarity, freedom and hope in daily life.

  • Trauma Recovery

    Even though our minds log our trauma experiences in the past, our bodies relive them in the present. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is one of the best evidence-based trauma recovery models that allows for your body and mind to reconnect, processing the trauma as past experience and moving toward emotional regulation. Recover from past emotional injury, move forward and thrive regardless of the circumstances.

  • Spiritual Abuse and Recovery

    Religious and spiritual abuse occurs when those in positions of authority violate our inner peace, often leaving us with guilt, shame, and a fractured sense of self. Healing from religious trauma is possible—you can find healthy spiritual connections within or outside religious communities. No matter who you are or what you believe, you deserve dignity, love, respect, and safety.
