About Therapy
You are at the cornerstone of everything we do together.
Our sessions are about your hopes, dreams, and desires for growth in yourself and your relationships.
It is a place where you can feel at peace, share openly, and work toward the life you’ve always wanted.
Whether you are just beginning or returning to therapy, we will work together to identify your goals and take time to nurture trust and vulnerability.
It’s not always easy.
I know that coming to therapy and opening up to someone can be hard.
My sincere promise is to create an open and warm environment where shame cannot survive.
A Process of Self-Discovery
The beauty of this work lies in you—in your intricate complexity and the process of discovering what is at your core.
Together we will uncover what truly brought you here and what steps you need to take to break free from what is keeping you stuck in the negative patterns and cycles of your life.
You are more than the pain you feel in this moment and although it may feel insurmountable now, this is only one step in the journey of your life.
“Twinkle lights are the perfect metaphor for joy. Joy is not constant. It comes to us in
moments—often ordinary moments. Sometimes we miss out on the bursts of joy because we’re too
busy chasing down extraordinary moments.”
– Brené Brown
It’s not about perfection.
Letting go of the idea of perfection is the key to unlocking yourself from shame, anger, depression, and anxiety.
Those are some loaded words—kind of scary, I know, but what it all basically means is that when we let go of what we think should be we can focus and appreciate what is.
We can realize our strengths and build on them, enabling us to free ourselves from the pain we are feeling and allow us to experience the joy that we so often miss out on.
Reaching out is the first step.
No matter where you are now on your journey to wellness, I will be here to help support, encourage, and empower you to commit to the changes you hope for, to unburden your hearts from the shame and sadness that you are feeling, and to live wholeheartedly each day.
About Me
My path as a therapist began over ten years ago.
It started on a trip to Guatemala. On this journey I was inspired to reach out and support those who were suffering from trauma, abusive relationships, and depression.
When I returned to the United States, I began to taking action with local crisis centers, volunteering with women’s shelters, and gaining certifications in crisis counseling.
From there my passion grew and I have continued to expand and hone my skills working with an eclectic mix of people from diverse backgrounds with varied needs.
Today, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with National Certification as well as Coach, and for years, I have been working with people from all walks of life who inspire me through their courage to confront their challenges and learn more about themselves.
When I created Transformative Healing Therapy, I wanted it to be a place of truth telling, acceptance, growth, and transformation.
This philosophy is a part of everything we do together, and I hope we can create a space where you feel valued, seen, and appreciated for everything you are now and wholeheartedly encouraged to work toward your hopes and dreams for the future.
I welcome the opportunity to speak with you more about myself, my experience, and what services I offer. Together we will sort out if we are the right fit for your needs.
