I am certified in EMDR, have 2 years training in Somatic Experiencing and have trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Internal Family Systems and other therapies.

In our time together, we can work to identify and understand how stressors are impacting your life and relationships, plus develop strategies to better manage the symptoms.

I have a waiting list for new clients. Am I the right therapist for you? To make the most progress, it really does require having a good fit with the therapist. I find that I work well with most people. Those who claim they don’t like anyone tend to do well with me. I’m easy-going yet also diligent when it comes to giving my attention to the person in front of me. I make eye contact and I really listen. The most frequent feedback people give me is that I am easy to talk to. People have also told me that they simply feel better after talking to me. My approach is supportive and I strive to make people feel understood.

Challenges are an inevitable part of life that come in many forms. No matter how hard we try, these experiences cannot be outrun. Allow yourself to slow down and lets work together to identify and implement healthy ways for you to thrive again. I strive to identify what makes each client a unique individual to find skills and strategies to best fit their personalities, interests and life situation.

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2000. I believe asking for help is one of the most important choices we can make in life. I offer confidential counseling services with compassion and respect, without judgement.

Hello! The clients that I work well with, are those that feel stuck . Perhaps, re-living past trauma,or having difficulty moving on from a set back or loss. Maybe feeling worthless, or having "imposter" syndrome? Maybe they are stuck in fear, anxiety, depression, negativity, or in patterns of behavior that no longer serve them? Maybe unsure about a relationship or career path? Or just unhappy, and not sure why? I have a lot of experience with complex trauma and unmet childhood needs that affect self esteem and core beliefs, so if this is you, I might be a good fit!
