Find islands of safety during storms of anxiety or overwhelm

When we experience trauma, anxiety, or attachment wounds, damaging patterns can form that prevent us from living the life we want. We may find ourselves stuck in the past, easily triggered, or constantly stressed – harming our relationships and blocking our path to positive change.

During titrated online therapy sessions at Change with More Ease, learn powerful mindfulness-based practices, techniques, and tools that will support your transition to a calmer, stronger, and more content “you.”

Safely process trauma while feeling present and contained

As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with specialist training in somatic experiencing, mindfulness, and trauma counseling, I will help you slowly peel back the layers of your trauma or anxiety at a pace that feels right for you, all from the comfort of your own home.

I offer an additional service incorporating Dr. Jud Brewer’s therapeutic app, “Unwinding Anxiety,” into my counseling sessions.

You’ll use the app at home to notice anxious sensations, practice anxiety-relieving techniques, and change your brain so that it recognizes that calm feels better.

Individual Therapy

If you’ve had an overwhelming experience that impacts your daily life, have a trauma/anxiety disorder, or want to undo destructive habits, I’m here to help you learn new skills that build resilience, create healthier brain patterns, and give you the tools to more frequently reach a settled state.

Couples Therapy

During couples therapy, I’ll help you and your partner understand how your individual attachment styles impact your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in the relationship while helping you approach challenges, conversations, and emotions affecting you as a couple in a healthy way.

Group Therapy

I offer group therapy online for those who wish to approach anxiety or trauma-related issues by listening to the perspectives of others. Whether you join our “Circle of Connection,” “Mindful of Change,” or “Unwinding Anxiety” groups,  you can find deep healing through a connection with others.
