Supporting Transformation
When overwhelming things happen, it can be hard to know what will help and where to start. You deserve a compassionate and experienced therapist who believes in your inherent wholeness and ability to heal. I offer a warm and hope-filled space to help you experience positive growth from the issues bringing you into counseling. You will receive the time, space, and support you need to allow for transformation to occur. My treatment specialties include PTSD, complex and developmental trauma, and grief.
You are the expert in you, and in what you want to change or grow in your life. I recognize and honor that it takes courage to ask for help. To support healing, I integrate evidence-based somatic and cognitive modalities in treatment. Together we will gently transform the past. This allows the wisdom of your body and mind to integrate and guide you forward.
I serve older adolescents (16+) and adults. I offer telehealth to support both those with busy lives and those living in rural areas for whom in person therapy sessions would not otherwise be possible. I support client resilience and healing by creating a caring and confidential environment using culturally responsive practices. I am licensed to provide therapy to those living in Arkansas, Montana, and New Mexico.
It is important for you to find a therapist who is a good fit for you and your needs. I offer free consultations to help you make that decision. PTSD can be a prison of the past that torment you daily. Support and relief are within reach. I look forward to hearing from you.
