Serene Life Counseling, LLC

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I am honored to be doing this work! I've been a counselor for ten years and I feel this profession is my calling. I find deep meaning in helping people just like you reach a place of self-awareness, peace of mind, and acceptance. Over the years I've honed my skills to help you heal from struggles from your past, to help you find meaning and purpose in your life, and to uncover your true self underneath layers of trauma, self-criticism, and people-pleasing. I provide a comforting, validating, soft place to land as you dig deep and heal. I bring warmth and a calm, nurturing presence to the counseling process to assist you in reconnecting with your natural wisdom and true essence. Challenging times can be potent with self-growth, self-exploration, and clarity. It is important to me to help you tap into the potential for increased well-being by holding space for you to explore, feel, and breathe...and get back to your true self. Providing EMDR therapy has been an amazing way to help clients move through difficult life experiences. I honor your innate wisdom and capacity to heal and I use EMDR to harness that for your healing process. I strive to help you uncover and nurture your true Self and to find clarity and peace in your life. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally and I am affirming of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures. I bring an open-minded, non-judgmental mindset to the therapy room to provide space for you to be your authentic self. I am a mom, step-mom, wife, a nature enthusiast, and spiritual seeker. I aim to be my authentic self in sessions to provide true connection. My areas of specialty are depression, anxiety, family and romantic relationships, LGBTQIA+ issues, self-identity, finding a sense of purpose, and self-esteem. I am an EMDR trained therapist and incorporate IFS (parts work).
