My journey of helping individuals and families began as a hospice social worker. I worked closely with individuals and families to provide a "total care" approach while offering guidance through the emotional process of death. Now in private practice, I have worked with many cases and continue to use the "total care" approach with each client. I welcome all individuals and find incorporating your values/beliefs in therapy is supportive of the healing process. As I share with clients, we have to embrace our past, present and future to begin the healing process.
I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) through EMDRIA. Additionally, I am an EMDR Consultant-in-Training, providing the consultation hours required for other therapists completing their own certification. I know the strength EMDR provides in healing trauma and use it effectively in many client treatment plans.
If you’re ready to make lasting changes with depression, anxiety, and trauma-related incidents, then I am available to assist you with EMDR therapy. In addition to my EMDR certification, I’m trained in multiple therapeutic interventions including Gottman Therapy, CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Internal Family Systems & Play Therapy.
