I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor in WI for over 25 years. During my years of clinical practice, I have been honored to work with a variety of clients presenting issues from depression and anxiety to abuse, trauma and grief. My passion is helping highly sensitive adults (HSP) understand and embrace their unique trait.

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, my expertise is working with individuals who experienced trauma in their lives. What is Trauma? “Trauma is the psychological, emotional and physical response to an event or experience that is deeply distressing and/or disturbing.” At times, trauma is related to a single event, such as losing your home in a fire or the loss of a loved one. Other times, trauma can cast a long shadow over our lives, such as childhood abuse or prolonged exposure to events out of our control. Trauma is unique for each of us and can result from many life experiences.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief we are all the experts on our own lives, and that our time together is a partnership. My role as a therapist is to listen deeply, guide loosely, challenge gently and affirm joyfully as you move through your healing/growth process. My style is grounded in Client-Centered and Positive Psychology models. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT) and TF-CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Somatic Healing and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
