My person-centered approach will help you gain awareness and understanding of your emotions/thoughts/behaviors, and through increased self-knowledge to make the necessary changes leading to greater life-satisfaction. My hope is that you will enjoy increased peace, satisfaction, positive self-regard, confidence, and connection in your relationships.
At the center of Sage Blackbird Therapy is a space for building wisdom through and healing conversation and reflection.
You have something to contribute to this world. Oftentimes, however, the society we live in tells us we need to shed those elements - do better, be better, and “have it all together.”
So often we are caught up in the hustle of what others want for us that we reach the end of the day and feel empty. Like we tried to live out the best version of ourselves and there’s a disconnect. The drive to pursue being someone you’re not can leave you feeling lonely.
And it’s the perfect storm of hiding our authentic selves.
I consider myself a realistic optimist. I think life can be great, but it can also be complicated, difficult, and
overwhelming. Ultimately, I believe that these difficult times are necessary because they help us become strong, resilient, and better people. It can be hard to recognize when we need help, and even more difficult to ask for it. I am here if you are ready to try.
Thank you for entering my counseling profile. I encourage people through partnership, mutual respect, trust, and goal alignment. I offer non-biased psychotherapy to clients ages four and up and from various backgrounds. We will work together to achieve your individual goals. We will consider a range of influences such as (1) your own motivation and biological environment; (2) your immediate surroundings including your family; and (3) your interactions within larger environmental systems consisting of society and culture. By using this holistic approach, I am certain that a positive change will take place.
As a trauma therapist, I specialize in using specific trauma-focused therapies like IFS and EMDR to alleviate the suffering and stuckness that come with depression, anxiety, PTSD, cPTSD, and other debilitating emotional experiences. My approach is to bring respect and gentleness to identify specifically what needs healing, help you form a foundation of stability, and then bring in the emotional transformation you're looking for - all while respecting your pacing. I love my work and would be honored to hear from you to see if we're be a good fit.

If you have unresolved trauma it can prevent you from having connections with others and inhibit your ability to function optimally in relationships. Trauma responses can force you into adaptive functions that leave you feeling stuck. In therapy, the emotional healing work can be done on your inner child to create new narratives and establish positive self-regard. Often people are driven by unprocessed emotions that keep you in a reactive cycle when you are merely seeking secure and loving connections. We can work together to resolve the pain you are feeling and address what you want and need out of your life, your relationships, and yourself. It is never too late to develop resiliency and transform your life. I provide a non-judgmental space to share with safety and compassion and consider it I privilege to understand your experience.
Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, bipolar, or grief ? Do you feel overwhelmed, frustrated, anxious, or lost? We all need help sometimes. It is easy to allow negative thoughts and thought distortions to rule our minds resulting in depression and anxiety. I am here to help you overcome difficulties in your life and challenge those thoughts that are keeping you trapped in anxiety or depression. Let us begin working together to move past trauma, anxiety, and depression, so you can live the life you are longing for.
I use a Person Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach, allowing you to pick your pace while addressing the thoughts and beliefs that are keeping you from feeling your best. My goal is for you to leave feeling encouraged, empowered, and with the tools to continue your healing journey outside of our sessions.
If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world.
You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are.
Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again.
My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.
