Hello! I've been practicing as a therapist for five years. I have significant experience using Family Based Treatment (FBT), the leading evidence-based treatment for adolescents with anorexia that can effectively treat other eating disorders as well. I also have ample experience in treating adolescents and young adults with eating disorders with more common modalities such as CBT and DBT. People with eating disorders often struggle with other things, such as trauma and anxiety. As a result, I've become competent in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based treatment for trauma and other stressors.

I interweave many methods and techniques within EMDR as part of a collaborative process to find the path through to where you want to be with yourself and in your life.
There are many ways we humans can find ourselves stuck in patterns that don’t serve us, in our jobs, in our relationships, as parents, or in our creative lives and what makes us happy. I have found EMDR to be a highly practical way to guide my clients to discover for themselves the beliefs and emotions that operate sometimes in our awareness and often outside of consciousness that can feel almost like the strings of a puppeteer; moving us to automatically react, feel, think, and behave in our lives in ways that seem to want to be helpful but often miss the mark, or even at times lead us wildly astray.

I also provide supervision for pre-licensed clinicians and am approved by the EMDR International Association to provide individual and group consultation to EMDR therapists.
Have you lost your footing? I specialize in traumatic grief counseling and reducing the negative effects of traumatic events. Sudden losses can throw you off center. Unattended losses and past traumas can leave you feeling disconnected from the people you love. I use EMDR therapy to help people make sense of their past losses so they can live more joyfully in the present. A certified facilitator of The Daring Way, I use the research published by Dr. Brené Brown to help people brave connection and claim their sense of worthiness and belonging.

From a culturally-informed, relational framework, I provide such therapies as CBT, CBT-Insomnia, CPT for PTSD, EMDR, and DBT.
Are you an "overthinker" or overachiever wanting to work through harsh attitudes you hold about yourself? Are you hoping to resolve pain from the past? Perhaps you need relief from intense worry, anxiety, PTSD/complex trauma, overwhelming emotions, depression, insomnia, or nightmares. Or you might be seeking to grow as a person and needing to talk through the complexities of your most important relationships with someone trained to ask just the right questions. If these are the kinds of issues you’re grappling with now, therapy is a wonderful place to start, and one of the most meaningful investments you can make in yourself.
