I have worked with children, teens, young adults, and adults, as a practitioner of DBT,and CBT, supportive therapies, and multiple trauma modalities such as Prolonged Exposure, Traumatic Incident Reduction, TF-CBT, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.
Living a “life worth living” can seem like a path only others get to travel, while our journey feels unfair, exceedingly difficult, or at times impossible. At times we discover that our struggles are the result of the choices we made, or the choices others have made that affect us. At other times, we unknowingly hold onto faulty beliefs about ourselves or others, living as if they are true or accurate. To cope, we develop strategies to make the journey seem more doable. They can indeed be helpful and carry us toward our goals, or be the very obstacle that prevents us from achieving our potential.

I’m an EMDR Therapist and I help adults who are tired of constantly keeping the peace and pleasing others in order to be liked, and are looking to find their voice and their worth.
The thought of someone being upset with you makes your skin crawl. Another day gone by where you kept your thoughts to yourself to keep the peace. Big emotions and conflict feel dangerous and you fear as soon as you say what you’re feeling, people will judge and leave you. Being agreeable and going along with what others want feels like the safest way to live. You're spending the day replaying convos in your head, questioning if you said the wrong thing and worrying if that person is mad at you. You're exhausted from always apologizing, but backing down would cause conflict and you'd be seen as a problem for others.

Children, adolescents, and adults who want or need to express and identify tough emotions and learn to communicate those emotions are the people my heart has been most called to help. I want to help empower people with tools to listen to their bodies, and regulate their minds to make good choices and discover their internal skills. I want to support them to have healthy relationships with others. My clients would work to understand that they and the people around them are human and humans are not perfect. While I specialize in children and young people, however anyone who needs help is welcome with me.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults in the treatment of trauma, complex PTSD, attachment, anxiety, and depression.
I've had the privilege of walking alongside clients in their healing journeys and have found that, for many whose trust (in others and in themselves) has been shaken, finally feeling heard and understood serves as a powerful corrective experience. I believe that these experiences are crucial in facilitating personal growth and change. I recognize that all clients have unique strengths, and I build upon these to create a working alliance that is non-judgmental, empowerment-based, and client-focused.

Please EMAIL rather than call. I am passionate about working with people who have experienced trauma as well as those who are neurodiverse. I have found that people who are ADHD, Autistic, or AuDHD can have more difficulty with processing their trauma due to coping mechanisms and masking. My goal is to help those who have experienced developmental trauma/emotionally immature caregivers as well as those who experienced more obvious trauma(s). I strive to work with people to be able to validate their own experiences, find and believe the truth about themselves, and for them to live their lives authentically.
