Welcome! My name is Rebecca and I specialize in helping those that have experienced trauma. My interest in therapy rooted from being part of a military family and noticing people that were left to sort through the pieces trauma left behind.

I worked with survivors of violence for 5 years while working with a variety of other populations in private practice.
