Four Pillars Counseling

Founder's Story

I own Four Pillars Counseling, a trauma informed therapy practice working towards making the world a better place, healing one person at a time through evidenced based practices (IFS, EMDR, DBT). As a therapist for over 20 years, I've been moved by the power of therapy to transform and heal survivors of abuse and violence. My guiding principle is that living authentically is at the heart of all therapy. Being more yourself in all of your beautiful aspects, takes power back from the events that have harmed you. I also believe that transformative therapy begins with well-equipped and ethical therapists. Supportive supervision when therapists are early in their career can unfortunately be too rare. I invest a great deal of care and energy into providing extensive support and training as new clinicians are growing their skills. My practice also participates in the health service Corp, a program placing healthcare workers in the highest need and most underserved areas.
