About
When trauma, relationship strain, or chronic illness leaves you exhausted and unsure how to move forward, this is understandable. You may feel disconnected from your partner, worn down by medical care, or replaying painful events that make trust hard to hold. Change is possible; therapy can help you find steadier ground and rebuild connection after trauma, illness, or relationship wounds. I help clients process trauma and PTSD, repair relationships through marriage counseling, and ease the emotional toll of chronic illness. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, marriage counseling, and chronic illness and bring 20 years of experience. In sessions we focus on compassionate listening, clearer communication, and practical coping to reduce symptoms and improve daily life. The goal is to help you heal, reconnect, and manage illness-related challenges.
