Waves of Courage Counseling LLC

Trauma Therapy for Military Families

Life is a beach...

Except, you’re left alone in turbulent waters, with the waves controlling and pressuring you in every direction.
You have tried to handle it yourself because, after all, you’ve been taught to "adapt and overcome" with the expectation that you always have your sh*t together.

But on the surface, you’re struggling to stay afloat, even though you can see the shore.
I’ve sailed on this ship and I’m here to tell you there’s a better way to navigate these unexpected tides.
Seeking therapeutic help is never an easy one. Sometimes life can feel as if we are treading water just to keep afloat.

Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other issues,
therapy can be your lifesaver.

Meet Your Therapist

You’re here because you’re ready for a change, taking a courageous step toward finding the right therapist. If you’re part of a military family, consider yourself doubly welcomed. As a military social worker, spouse, and daughter, I understand the unique challenges the military faces.

My mission is to provide safe, accessible, and convenient counseling to support those who serve our communities.

Connecting with a therapist is a vital part of your healing journey, helping you navigate rough waters, guiding you to a safe shore, and discovering the answers you seek.

Are you finding it challenging to maintain your sense of self and find fulfillment amidst the demands of military life?

Do you often feel on edge, struggling to relax and enjoy quality time with your loved ones?

Finding it hard to access the healthcare and support you deserve after serving your country?

I help military families through EMDR therapy to process

I understand how these experiences can impact your mental health. As a trauma-informed therapist, I offer a safe virtual space to help you find courage, hope, and healing.

I specialize in military mental health and support individuals aged 18+, including my experience supporting other helpers, such as healthcare workers and law enforcement professionals. I’m also passionate about helping individuals navigate family origin issues and overcome generational trauma.

I am an EMDR Certified Therapist, but use an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to each person. Learn more about EMDR and my approach here.
