I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR) and integrate multiple modalities.
You might be dealing with PTSD, anxiety, depression, or the effects of childhood trauma.

I am also EMDR trained by the EMDR International Association which is the leading approach for PTSD.
Do you find yourself feeling fearful and not knowing why? Do you question your behavior and feel like your reactions are abnormal? Does it feel like no one understands and that life is too overwhelming sometimes? You're not alone, and it's time to talk about it.

I'm certified in perinatal mental health and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization + Reprocessing), a trauma processing therapy, and enjoy working with clients who are motivated to grow and heal.
You imagined the path to parenthood to look a lot different. Pregnancy, trying to conceive, coping with losses and becoming a parent for the first (or umpteenth time) can be quite different than expected. It's important to get help if you're feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious as you anticipate and cope with these transitions.

Through various modalities such as, but not limited to EMDR, TFCBT, CPT, CBT, a unique treatment plan is developed and goals are identified collaboratively.
I have created and founded La Verdad Therapy with the vision of reaching many under the embrace and guidance of truth. Truth can be perceived as a relative concept evaded by so many and held in the eye of the beholder. I have had the honor to witness the power of Truth in a transformative nature. Wisdom is not far by telling us that the Truth shall set you free. Truth baring requires courage, and courage requires vulnerability. I want to invite you to take the wildest journey you can imagine. A journey into yourself with open arms and ready to embrace the truth of who you were created to be.

I provide trauma-informed, affirming, care using evidence-based therapies, like AEDP, EMDR, IFS, and somatic-based therapies.
I believe there is a healing force, a motivation towards self-repair, that's operating in each of us, despite a history of trauma or suffering.

Through mindful exploration of your inner landscape, we’ll help you break free from the constraints of the past, recover a stable sense of self, and help you create a life that feels bigger, and more aligned with your true self.

While trained in many therapies to include EMDR, I use an eclectic model to meet your goals.
I can currently offer appointments within 1-2 weeks. Treatment specialties: Trauma and Loss. My clients typically have tried to avoid therapy for months, perhaps, years; therefore, there are layers of issues to address. Most clients are looking for immediate solace to include feeling validated, welcome, and to form a trusting alliance with their therapist. We will establish that very quickly. While many of my clients present with relationship issues, but trauma, loss, moral injury, and unresolved grief may be at the root of the problem. I love working with a variety of clients and issues. I look forward to hearing from you.

As an EMDR certified therapist and IFS Level One trained, I integrate these powerful methods to bridge your past experiences with present needs, fostering healing, self-compassion, rebuilding self-worth, and cultivating healthier boundaries.
Do you feel like your childhood experiences are impacting your present? Were you raised by parents who were emotionally unavailable or immature? Are you struggling with feelings of abandonment, low self-worth, or setting healthy boundaries? Do you find it hard to break free from old patterns and make positive changes in your life? If these questions resonate with you, you're not alone. Many adult children of emotionally immature or absent parents face these challenges. The emotional wounds from your past can impact how you see yourself, how you relate to others, and how you manage your own needs and boundaries.
