​​Grief, Trauma & Abuse Counseling

Picture

​Hello there. I'm so glad you are here.

​I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with almost 25 years of experience in the mental health field including community mental health, hospice bereavement care, and private practice therapy. 

​It's a combination of my own stories, experiences and training that have led me to uniquely understand how trauma affects the deep places of our hearts, minds & bodies. Neuroscience is clear that trauma resides in our body and creates neural networks in the brain that can lead to stuck patterns. Pervasive shame, guilt, hypervigilence & anxiety are all signals that we are likely living with unprocessed trauma. Whether it is small "t" trauma that has happened over time, or big "T" trauma that happened once, I can walk with you to explore what needs to be told and processed to help bring healing and freedom. We can come to know parts of you that need their voices to be heard. You can learn new ways of seeing yourself, others, and your relationship with God. Let me reassure you that you can experience healing. ​I'd be honored to walk with you.
