If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can't survive. ~Brene Brown
Welcome to Hopescape Counseling
You Are Not Alone
Are you struggling with alcohol or other substance use? Having difficulty managing mood or anxiety? Is it difficult to maintain positive relationships? Struggling with trauma, shame, or grief? If any of this is true for you, I would love the opportunity to help you resolve past traumas, learn to cope with unexpected loss or life changes, and explore the future. I am dually licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Chemical Dependency counselor. I am also a Certified Daring Way Facilitator, Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional II: Complex Trauma, and Certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist. I have been working in this field since 2009. I have a passion for working with clients struggling with chemical dependency and mood disorders. Having been personally affected by both, I have a deep understanding of the fear, loneliness, and hopelessness that can overwhelm and even paralyze us. I will walk alongside you on your journey. You are not alone.
What To Expect At Your Visit
About Me
I provide individual therapy sessions with a focus on grief, trauma, mood disorders, and substance use disorders/addictions. I would describe my style as eclectic - drawing from various approaches to suit your individual needs. The most important factor in positive therapy outcomes is the connection between client and therapist. My responsibility to you is to create a safe environment, free of all judgment, where you are able to explore your past, present, and future, I am laid back and authentic, and clients find it easy to establish trust and connection. During your first visit, I will work with you to identify needs, preferences, and goals.
Services I Offer
My focus is working with individuals struggling with grief, mood disorders (Bipolar Disorder, Depression), anxiety, trauma, and substance use. I started my career in 2009 as a chemical dependency counselor. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient treatment facilities, both as a counselor and Clinical Director. In 2014, I decided I wanted more - more knowledge, more experience, and to help more people. I made the decision to enter graduate school to broaden my scope of practice as a professional counselor. This allowed me to expand from chemical dependency counseling to now exploring underlying issues that bring you into the therapy room. Substance abuse is only a symptom of deeper rooted issues.
