My Journey to Becoming a Therapist…
I have always been a people person and knew that when I grew up I wanted to be someone who helped others. I first gained interest in becoming a therapist while working in full-time ministry with college students.
Being around others, I have great empathy and compassion, and I wanted the tools and knowledge to be able to help individuals through some of their darkest days.
Through this process, I began my journey into therapy and saw the healing and freedom I could have in my own life when I was allowed to process the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Now, I get to help others through their battles. I am a mother too, so I understand the overwhelm and adjustment you are going through.
When I am not doing therapy...
You can find me hanging out with my husband and children. We love to have dance parties in the kitchen and spend as much time outside as we can.
In the summertime, I love to garden and grow flowers and vegetables. I enjoy baking and trying new recipes.
I also enjoy drinking coffee and trying one of the many local shops in the area. I love trying new foods but would eat Mexican food every day if I could.
The beautiful thing about therapy is that you are creating a sacred space for your own story. Working together we will make room for the celebrations, the hard, and everything in between. We will discover the narrative you’ve been telling yourself about who you are, and be curious about where you want to go with your internal beliefs.
This works when you step into relationship with another person, another mother, who understands the journey you are on. It’s ok that you are feeling uncertain and overwhelmed. You don’t have to have it all together to begin.
We will develop a therapeutic relationship that allows you to be honest about what is hard in life about being a mother and woman. We will use creative modalities to explore and express—this is worth it.
It takes courage to begin the process of therapy. You may be asking yourself, “Why am I here?” or “Do I really need therapy?” If you’re asking those questions, you are in the right place.
I often tell my clients that going through therapy is a lot like detangling Christmas lights. There are moments when it is easier to detangle the mess and others where it takes a bit more time. The results are beautiful, practical and hopefully very helpful.
It takes courage.
The hope is that we strategically work together for you to grow and thrive in your life.
Therapy isn’t about becoming a different person. It’s about feeling more like yourself again.
I desire that clients can come into each session and be themselves. It is important to me that therapy isn’t just serious but that there are moments of laughter as well.
Therapy is a journey of ups and downs, and each individual deserves guided support along the way for a fruitful experience. Each person has a different story that is worth sharing and is possible to rewrite.
Sessions are for the client, and I work to be flexible and creative to create an experience that is catered to your needs and desires.
What to Expect
First, we’ll have our consultation call to determine whether we are the right fit to work together. I’ll ask you about why you’ve chosen to reach out at this time, what your challenges are, and what your goals are for therapy. You will have an opportunity to ask me your questions too.
If we feel like the right fit and you decide to move forward, we will schedule an intake session. During the intake, you will share about what you are currently experiencing, your desired goals and outcomes for therapy, and I will share approaches for how we get you there. I believe the therapeutic relationship is a sacred space.
As we continue to build a working relationship together, in sessions you will discover what is underneath your current symptoms and begin to move through your story. We will make room for the real challenges that you are going through, and find solutions that allow you to feel in control again.
Healing that lasts.
You’ve spent a lot of time taking care of everyone else. This can be a place where you don’t have to hold it all together. You don’t have to spend the rest of your life managing the same patterns, carrying the same doubts, or wondering why certain things still feel so hard.
You can bring the messy parts. The resentment. The grief. The anxiety. The things you’re embarrassed to say out loud. The parts of motherhood you love and the parts that have left you wondering, “Can I really do this?”
Motherhood has a way of changing us, shifting our identity, and our needs. I believe we need connection and relationship in this season, and the opportunity to find how we can voice our needs in relationships.
My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and collaborative. I draw from Person-Centered, Perinatal Mental Health, Narrative Therapy, Attachment Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Christian Therapy, and Art-Cased Interventions.
It’s the right time to choose you. Let’s explore what healing really feels like in your life. There is hope, and I would be honored to walk alongside you in this journey.
