Are you in a relationship struggling with poor connection, trust issues, non-existent boundaries, or poor communication? Are you a woman dealing with dysfunctional relationship patterns, rejection or anxiety/trauma? If you are struggling with: creating and sustaining healthy boundaries, putting yourself first, or  breaking the impact of dysfunction family patterns or past experiences on your current life or relationships, working together may make all the difference for you. You deserve to create and maintain healthy boundaries and to have secure and healthy relationships.

As a doctoral level clinician, I have been rigorously trained in individual/couple systems and believe it is crucial to target both behaviors/thoughts and values/family of origin issues. I use a trauma-informed approach as well as attachment theory, and mindfulness principles when conducting therapy. I use sand tray and art therapy interventions for minors. I use EMDR for adults and children who have experienced trauma or distressing events.

I appreciate and honor diversity in all aspects and love working with clients from all sorts of backgrounds, including those who aren’t religious/spiritual. However, I’m open to applying biblical principles in therapy by request. I’m licensed in OH, MI, NC and am a AAMFT Approved Supervisor Candidate and EMDRIA Consultant-in-Training. I am in network with most Ohio insurance companies and Optum and Aetna in Michigan.
