I also utilize EMDR to process trauma and reinforce positive self-beliefs.
Life can feel impossible to avoid struggling and we often don't feel we have the skills to cope successfully through. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't have all the resources we need for a given situation. Parts of us take on desperate roles trying to help us to survive. This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.

Incorporating a variety of modalities ( EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and NARM), we will work together to find the best path to help you find healing.
Your past is a heavy weight you carry around with you. You wish you could just erase it from memory. You've tried ignoring it and suppressing it, but it's always there. Plagued by anxiety, nightmares, flashbacks, insomnia, difficulty trusting others, mood swings, irritability, and avoiding reminders of what happened. Imagine what life could be like, if you could break free from your past- letting go of that heavy weight. No longer being haunted by painful memories of things that happened way back when. Having a more positive outlook on your past and future, and feeling more at ease.

EMDR Intensives are usually 5 sessions over 1-2 weeks.
You’ve struggled to find time to make a weekly therapy appointment to cope with the isolation, overwhelm, anxiety, and so many other feelings. Taking a really good deep breath sounds so simple, yet you often forget to take 10-seconds in order to care for yourself. You’re tired of taking care of everyone else, feeling overwhelmed, unorganized, heart constantly racing, or have an unending headache. Your shoulders and neck are so tight. Your stomach has it's own issues. It is exhausting to try to function this way.This is where EMDR Intensive come into play. About a week of your time, compared to one time a week for who knows how long.

Have you been in therapy before and weren’t able to get the level of healing you hoped for? I can help you find deeper relief from anxiety, your critical inner voice, painful past experiences, and trauma, through my advanced training in EMDR, combined with talk therapy.
You are insightful and self-aware, you know all of the “right” things to do and think, and yet you still struggle to truly feel good enough. Have you spent your life trying to achieve and move up the ladder and still feel anxious, panicky, or like something is missing? You might be a people pleaser and struggle to say no or to set healthy boundaries. Maybe you have a hard time showing all of yourself to loved ones and instead present only the parts of yourself that seem likable - leaving you feeling unknown and alone. You may give and give to others and yet neglect to care for yourself or to ask for your own needs to be met.

I am a trauma informed therapist who is trained in EMDR therapy.
I see both first responders as well as non first responders in my practice. I find that one of the most important elements to good therapy is a good match between the therapist and client. I encourage anyone looking into therapy to schedule a free consultation call to ensure that we are a good match! It may also help to listen to a few of my podcast episodes to get a feel for my personality and approaches to treatment. I work with young adults (16 and up) as well as adults to help process trauma, anxiety, depression, and social and relational issues.

Based on the lived experience of those I work with I believe that a full, happy, and peaceful life is within reach for everyone who seeks it.

I work with adults dealing with stress, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues by using evidence-based practices, such as EMDR therapy, which helps clients overcome negative self-beliefs rooted in traumatic experiences.
Are you navigating a significant transition in your life and questioning whether the stress and worry you're experiencing is normal? Perhaps you're wondering if there’s something more you could do to find peace. You yearn to feel calm and grounded while fully embracing the potential joy that life has to offer. Yet, your past experiences seem to hold you back, keeping you from moving forward. You’re not alone in wanting a safe space where you can learn to connect with yourself more gently. This desire extends beyond just you—it’s about becoming the best version of yourself for your loved ones too.

I offer EMDR intensives (anywhere from 3 to 6 hours) for those who don't have time for a weekly session.
You may have tried therapy before, read all of the books, and still find yourself not feeling better. You may have experienced trauma, anxiety, or grief to the point where it's overwhelming and negatively impacting your life. You may get school, work, or sports performance anxiety, or maybe you logically know you're worthy and safe, but don't feel it. As a certified EMDR therapist, I work from a trauma-informed and somatic lens to address the integration and healing of mind, body, and spirit.

I believe in the connection between the body, mind, spirit and emotions, Using traditional talk therapy (CBT) and somatic tools like EMDR and mindfulness, I can help you to release the past, reclaim your natural resilience, joy, vitality and confidence, and potentially improve your physical health.
Trauma, stress, and other painful experiences can cause us to develop negative thoughts and beliefs about ourselves and the world, keeping us stuck, and preventing us from moving forward. You may feel overwhelmed, powerless, hopeless, depressed or anxious or experience panic attacks. You tell yourself to "get over it," blame ourselves when we can't, and are often ashamed to let anyone know that we are struggling. You do not have to keep repeating the same patterns; life does not have to be all about pain and suffering. You can heal from your trauma, moving beyond those old behaviors to live happy, satisfying, fulfilling lives.
