It’s not always easy to ask for help. It often takes courage to recognize that something is off and that your feelings and behaviors have overwhelmed your resources to cope. You may have already put considerable time and energy into your wellness and yet are baffled by why it is that you still are experiencing things like negative beliefs about yourself, overwhelming emotions, knee-jerk emotional reactions, difficulty having the kind of relationships or work you truly want, or why it is that you engage in self-destructive behavior. I'm here to help you gain freedom from these patterns so that you can live the life you deserve.
I provide psychotherapy to adults utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, my primary theoretical orientation and modality. I’m a Certified EMDR Therapist and Approved Consultant with over 20 years of experience in mental health. I also have a post-master's certificate from JFK University for treating eating disorders.
Social justice is an important value of mine, including anti-racism and anti-oppression practice. I am affirming of gender identity and sexual orientation. I embrace and celebrate body diversity. I welcome people of all races, ethnicities, religions, gender expressions, orientations, and abilities.
