Waves of Courage Counseling LLC

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.

Holistic & EMDR Online Counseling for Trauma (Serving Alaska & Virginia)



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.

Your connection with a therapist is a critical part of your healing journey, helping you get through the rough waters, guiding you to a safe shore, and discovering the answers you’re looking for.

Services are offered 100% online to residents of Alaska and Virginia. As a trauma-informed therapist, I provide a safe and accepting virtual therapy space. I am focused on helping you access courage, discover renewed hope, and tap into your inner potential for healing and wholeness.

My specialization is in military mental health, working with individuals aged 18+. I also have extensive experience supporting the helpers, such as healthcare workers and law enforcement professionals. I am also passionate about helping individuals navigate family origin issues and overcome generational trauma.

I am an EMDR Certified Therapist, but I tailor my approach using an integrative framework and utilize evidence-based treatment modalities with trauma-informed and holistic practices to each person. Learn more about EMDR and my approach here.
