Transitioning from a life centered around raising children to an empty nest can be both challenging and liberating.

Whether you’re seeking to revive old hobbies, pursue a new career, or simply find peace and joy in this new chapter, I will guide you every step of the way, ensuring you feel empowered and excited about your future. Let’s work together to create a life that truly reflects your desires and potential.

Finding freedom from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a transformative journey, and I am here to guide you through it. With evidence-based therapies and personalized support, I will help you understand and manage the intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that characterize OCD. My compassionate approach focuses on empowering you with coping strategies and techniques to regain control over your life. Through dedicated counseling sessions, you’ll learn to break free from the cycle of OCD, reduce anxiety, and build a more peaceful, fulfilling existence. Let me help you reclaim your freedom and live life to its fullest potential.

Processing trauma can be a daunting task, but with the innovative techniques of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), healing becomes more attainable. Both of these evidence-based therapies for trauma allow clients to heal without ever speaking about the actual trauma. In my trauma counseling practice, I utilize these powerful therapies to help you address and alleviate the distressing symptoms of trauma. EMDR therapy works by reprocessing traumatic memories through guided eye movements, reducing their emotional charge. ART therapy complements this by using visualization techniques to replace traumatic images with positive ones, often resulting in rapid relief. As a trained and compassionate counselor, I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can process and heal from trauma effectively, allowing you to move forward with greater resilience and peace.

Therapy can feel daunting, but you've taken the first step for a reason. Healing from trauma requires facing the challenges head-on. Let me guide you through this journey to recovery.
