My ideal client is looking to become authentically themself. They would be motivated to change and curious about what has brought them to where they are. They want to process their trauma so that it is no longer upsetting but is simply part of their story. I don't want to specify too much here, as I don't want anyone to feel excluded. If you are curious and want help, I am here for you!
I am trained in EMDR therapy and am working towards being certified. I have extensive training in trauma, specifically attachment trauma in kids and teens. I have worked in an LGBTQIA+ mental health facility for over 6 years and am also part of the queer community.
I am a late-in-life therapist. When my oldest kiddo was in high school, they came out to me as being transgender. After a brutal year of high school and their mental health challenges, they went off to college and I started grad school! My heart is for the queer community and those who love them! BONUS: I work with a therapy dog named Daisy Joy!
