Services & Fees

Services:

I am a therapist who specializes in trauma and is currently working towards becoming a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) as well as a Certified Addictions-Informed Mental Health Professional (CAIMHP). I provide mental health services to individuals of all ages and tailor my therapeutic approach to match your needs, personality and presenting issue. I define myself as someone who is eclectic, meaning you’ll notice me utilizing strategies and techniques from different modalities such as Gestalt, Jungian, and Psychodynamic. There are so many topics and factors that bring us to therapy all of which are important and deserving of space. Some of my specialty areas include issues related to self-esteem and identity, relationships and attachment, anxiety and depression.

Whether you’re interested in individual therapy or couples therapy you will find yourself in an environment that provides comfort and challenge.

Comfort that feels similar to being wrapped up in your favorite blanket while holding that first cup of coffee. That image feels inviting, safe, and warm. There are days when a softness is required to carry whatever trauma, heaviness, or loneliness exists. Together we will sit in it and let it be whatever it needs to be for those minutes without judgement, without criticism and without an agenda.

Challenge that feels similar to training for a marathon on a day in Texas where it’s 102 degrees. That image feels hard, daunting, and painful. There are days when the topic, the feeling, and the story are overwhelming, and we are filled with doubt about whether we can do this. In these moments, I will serve as the accountability and partner that’s needed to push back on thoughts or behaviors that seem to keep us in a pattern that is familiar but doesn’t necessarily align with the direction we aspire to head. Together we will identify what protective piece is surfacing and identify strategies that can assist in breaking free from cycles.

Walk & Talk Therapy is now offered at Be Counseling!

Walk & Talk Therapy takes sessions outdoors, which allows us to combine movement and deep conversation while existing among nature. Cue birds chirping and the feel of sun on our skin.

This type of session will be available on Friday's and some select mornings depending on availability.

If you're interested, let's discuss in a session (virtually or at Be Counseling) to determine right fit as well as location preference.

Still unsure? Check out Be Counseling's most recent blog, which discusses the various benefits of Walk & Talk Therapy.
