(She/Her/Hers)
Certified Trauma Professional, Counselor
With trauma-informed care, we offer culturally-informed counseling services to start working through the challenges in your current life circumstances.
Life can get so chaotic that it seems like the chaos starts to unravel in our minds, drawing us away from peace and clarity. If you're losing sight of who you are or don't know who you're becoming, The Centered Psyche may be a place for you to reconnect, resolve, and reorganize. Drawing from multiple approaches including Mindfulness, CBT, and strength-based counseling, I work with those experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, career development, and more. You don't have to have a defined problem to benefit from the reflective process of counseling. Using trauma-informed care and/or EMDR, I can help you process the things that are hard to talk about. I practice with consideration to wellness existing on a spectrum of four areas including social, emotional, physical, and personal/spiritual functioning. Learning mindfulness skills allows for an ongoing, grounding practice beyond your course of treatment. I can help you learn and strengthen the skill of getting centered. Getting centered is about calling to focus your innermost self to best align with your values. Attending therapy consistently is a beginning practice of implementing regenerative self-care into your routine. I'm looking forward to being a part of your journey.
