I primarily operate from an existential approach, but I frequently incorporate EMDR and cognitive-behavioral interventions as well.
There may come a time when you find yourself at your wit’s end, unable to find a solution for the troubles life has thrown your way. After all, we should be able to solve our own problems, right? For many of us, the decision to call a therapist is the last thing on our list as it can feel like admitting weakness, but it takes courage to make that call. Whether you're struggling with addictions, a serious mental illness, or just feeling 'stuck' in life, I strive in my work to make you glad you reached out.

I’m a certified EMDR therapist who works with adults who have experienced tough stuff in their childhood or present.

Events from your childhood keep impacting your daily life including relationships with your children, spouse, or significant other. Your current or past relationship with your mother or father keeps affecting your present. You participated in talk therapy for years, but you just can't seem to get where you want to be.

Through a combination of EMDR, narrative therapy, and understanding neurobiology, I seek to work with the whole person - body, mind, and spirit.
The story of our lives often shape our day to day experiences. As we open up to our story and how we ended up at a certain space in our lives, we begin to see patterns. We begin to see unhealthy ways we have responded to people, relationships that have been less than productive, or events that unfolded different than we had hoped. In order to grow and set a new course, we need to identify the patterns that have lead us here. Therapy is about doing just that - uncovering underlying, most the time subconscious, ways of thinking, so that we can become the people that we want to be.
