Is your past preventing you from experiencing a joyful and fulfilling life? Have you tried talk therapy and found that words aren't enough to change how you feel or that trying to change your thinking has not brought you the healing you seek? It could be that trauma is keeping you stuck. I specialize in treating adults who feel held back and weighed down by trauma, helping them to resolve traumatic experiences that are often at the root of depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders.
I utilize mind-body based modalities, such as EMDR, polyvagal theory, and somatic therapy to invite your whole self into the healing process. These are effective, evidence-based approaches that can rewire your brain and reset your nervous system to shift you from fear to safety, from post traumatic stress to post traumatic growth, from surviving to thriving.
My goal is to help you resolve past traumas so that you can THRIVE as your most authentic, whole, and healthy self. Together, we can make it happen! As your therapist, I will provide a safe space for you to undertake the challenging yet deeply rewarding work of healing and transformation. It would be an honor and privilege to support you on your journey.
