I utilize EMDR and DBT to help clients meet their personal goals.
I specialize in supporting teenagers and adults who have recently faced sexual assault and/or relationship abuse. Many of my clients feel lost, emotionally overwhelmed, and struggle with understanding how their identities have been changed. They often experience a sense of isolation from their usual support networks and find it challenging to access joy and relaxation in their lives. Additionally, they may have developed a fear of men or relationships in general, making it difficult for them to feel connected and safe in their own bodies.

Using strengths-based approaches like CBT and DBT-informed strategies, I can help you shift your self-image to see yourself and the world in a more positive light.
“What is wrong with me?” you ask yourself for the umpteenth time today. That voice in your head never lets up. “Why do I even bother?” “I’m such a hot mess!” You try so hard to be perfect, please everyone, and never let people down, but it’s not enough. So you turn on yourself, repeatedly falling into destructive cycles of overcompensation and self-sabotage. It extends to every aspect of your life. Your last few relationships have all fizzled out before they even got started. No matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to make anything work in your life. You can't even put it into words really. You just feel empty. You feel stuck.
