Elevate Your Work With Clients
Supervision and consultation aren’t just about ticking off hours—they’re about becoming the kind of therapist who feels confident, creative, and equipped to handle whatever walks through the door.
At Healing Connections Psychotherapy, we specialize in trauma-informed practice, and I bring years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My goal is to help you integrate trauma-informed approaches into your work while building both your clinical skills and your confidence.
Why Work With Me?
✨ Comprehensive Clinical Lens
I’ve trained in a wide range of approaches and populations—so whether you’re navigating affairs, addictions, attachment wounds, or child therapy, I can support you with practical, grounded strategies.
✨ Beyond the Textbook
Therapy doesn’t fit into a neat box. I’ll help you think outside of protocols, adapt to real-life clients, and learn how to stay steady in complex situations.
✨ Support That Meets You Where You’re At
From students to seasoned therapists, I create a safe, collaborative environment where your professional goals guide the process.
✨ Affordable & Flexible Options
I understand the realities of learning and growing in this field. I offer flexible consultation and supervision that meets your needs.

Support in working with any client population
