My goal is to help you in your mental health journey to identify negative thinking patterns, process through past traumatic events, practice emotional regulation skills, coping skills and mindfulness, utilizing an eclectic therapeutic approach, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and EMDR.
Do you find yourself feeling sad, anxious, are down on yourself and you constantly worry about daily life events? Is your adolescent or young adult struggling with managing their feelings and it is preventing them from enjoying daily activities, for example, school, relationships or hobbies? Anxiety and depression can make us feel stuck, unable to move forward or live the best version of ourselves. Do not let your past experiences or your current circumstances and beliefs prevent you from being who you are meant to be.

I offer Internal Family Systems as well as EMDR, both forms of therapy that help us heal from attachment injuries, trauma and overwhelming life experiences.
Our lives—and the lives of our family and friends—are often challenged by issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, loss and grief. And we are often so pressured by the demands of everyday life that we struggle to simply get through each day. While our relationships with others can be sources of great love and support, they are often sources of our deepest pain. Through the process of therapy, we can come to better understand the roots of our suffering, heal emotional wounds and strengthen our relationships with ourselves and others.

I offer EMDR- Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization is a highly effective trauma processing modality that alleviates distressing associations and negative thinking.
My approach is psychodynamic but flexible; exploring the relationship to the self in both past and present experiences. I believe acceptance, choice, flexibility and compassion are the key agents of change. I view life through the bittersweet lens of existentialism and am aligned with Buddhist principles. I am EMDR trained and fascinated by the human brain and somatic storage of trauma. I enjoy working with adolescents and individuals with a range of needs. I am LGBTQIA+ informed and delighted to support any and all life experiences. I appreciate the depths of the human experience and also love a good laugh when it's available.

I rely on over 20 years of clinical experience in private practice with hundreds of individuals, couples and groups along with EMDR, EFT and somatic experiencing to help clients gently heal painful memories, experiences and negative patterns.
I specialize in cutting edge techniques that work at the level of the unconscious mind to help gently and efficiently shift unwanted patterns of behavior. We often don't realize that the way we respond and perceive things in the present is due to past programming. This programming not only creates a blueprint for who we choose and how we behave in our intimate relationships but also determines our ability to cope with stress and deal with painful emotions throughout our lifetime. The techniques I use and teach my clients work especially well with anxiety, phobias, depression and trauma.

Fulfillment from relationships and the transformation of heartbreak, grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, and isolation are all possible.

I welcome individuals and couples of any gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and spiritual beliefs. I have worked extensively with clients who have experienced altered states of consciousness and those who use cannabis as medicine.
