I have over a decade of experience working with people from all backgrounds. In particular I love working with teachers, therapists, nurses, and others in helping professions to manage stress, burnout, boundary setting, and vicarious trauma. I am also passionate about providing clinical supervision for pre-licensed or licensed clinicians focused on burnout prevention and honing clinical skills for trauma focused care. My style is described as warm and friendly and I find humor a vital tool as we navigate challenging waters together.
I have extensive experience working with complex trauma and dissociation. I am influenced strongly by EMDR, parts work, polyvagal theory, and psychodynamic theories but most importantly I use a person centered and relational approach that embodies respect, inclusivity, honesty, cooperation, and humility.
Collaboration is vital for progress in therapy. We will work together to develop your treatment goals and share in decision making about treatment to help you feel empowered and rebuild a sense of control over your life. Due to many inquiries, email is the best way to get in touch with me to schedule a consultation.
