My specializations include trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and loss; I also provide EMDR therapy.
Seeking therapy is an invaluable investment in oneself, and I believe it is my job as a therapist to empower clients to find and live their own paths and truths. The path to healing begins with a trusting and accepting therapist-client relationship; I provide a space that recognizes and centers the unique strengths, values, and lived experiences of each individual, and I seek to partner with clients to best meet their needs. Respecting client self-determination is fundamental to my practice, which is grounded in cultural humility and recognizing the ways in which our values and identities form the many facets of who we are.

I am Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR) trained, and Brain Spotting trained.
A life that is trauma, or drama-free is often based in fairy tales. Let's face it happily ever after does not provide details of "who", "what" and "how" happy is defined. Real people have real problems...relationship issues, financial issues, employment issues, depression, substance abuse, anxiety, stress, and grief are just a few of the problems we deal with regularly. Healthy coping skills are necessary tools to help people master life's issues and maintain their health mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Whether you need help in developing coping skills, boundaries, or ending codependency help is available.

Therapy also encourages development of healthy coping skills to bring you to a better place and provide greater satisfaction in life. Mental and physical health are closely intertwined and whether you are feeling burdened by one or the other or both, therapy can be a resource to help you life your best life.

My approach combines evidence-based therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), and EMDR, to help you develop practical skills and help you regain balance in your life.
“Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up” - Brené Brown. You are the expert in understanding the problems that occur in your life. You have been through the same cycles and you know very well how problems start. The issue is - getting the cycles to stop. You could just stop repeating the same behaviors, but it would create a host of other problems. You do not have balance and deep down you want to reclaim your sense of purpose and joy. Sound familiar? I have been there, too. The first step to regaining a sense of balance is to make a therapy appointment and just have a conversation.

I believe every individual is their own expert and has the ability to be the editor to their story finding the truest and empowering version rather than one that’s defined by others or by trauma. All people are capable of achieving a greater potential and have within them, the answers. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, compulsions, history of trauma, social challenges, or executive dysfunction, all of these problems have answers and can be overcome with believing in yourself.
