Transforming the Whole You — Mind, Body, and Relationships
I help individuals and families—especially those in military and rural communities—move through trauma, grow through complex grief, and restore their most important relationships. I also help when you feel you're drinking a little too much or turning to food feels like the only way to cope, working together to rebuild body trust and create healthier patterns.
In addition, I support families navigating neurodivergence, developmental disabilities, and complex medical conditions—such as fibromyalgia—with understanding, practical tools, and compassion.

You do not have to figure everything out alone—or force yourself to change before you feel ready. Together, we will build on the strengths already within you, gently getting to know the protective parts and patterns that have helped you survive. Rather than pushing past the parts of you that feel afraid, we will approach them with curiosity, compassion, and respect, finding safer ways to reach what is underneath.
I will be beside you as we build trust, deepen awareness, and create space for new choices to become possible. Through embodiment and somatic awareness, you can begin to reconnect with your values, inner truth, authentic self, and the wisdom held within your body.
Lasting change is not only something you understand—it is something you begin to feel, practice, and live. Together, we can build greater freedom, deeper connection, and renewed hope.
My approach to therapy:
My approach combines IFS, Play Therapy, and somatic, body-based modalities, and I offer biblical integration upon request. 

I use a neurodivergent affirming framework and specialize in Play Therapy addressing trauma, anxiety, and concerns of neurodivergent individuals and families virtually (children ages 7-11). I use creative modalities with all ages to push past your comfort zone so you can grow and move from surviving to thriving. I have additional training in grief, DBT-C.
 

​For clients who desire faith-integrated care, biblical concepts and Scripture can also be thoughtfully incorporated into sessions upon request. Together, we can build greater freedom, deeper connection, and renewed hope.
 

​I schedule appointments through out the week with many appointments as late as 9:00 pm and on Sundays as well.
