I utilize evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness to help clients process and heal from traumatic experiences.
Trauma results from experiencing distressing events that overwhelm an individual's ability to cope. This can leave them feeling helpless, hopeless, and emotionally out of control. Trauma impacts both the mind and body, and can manifest in various ways, including flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, depression, emotional numbness, and difficulties with relationships. It often disrupts daily functioning and overall well-being. I specialize in helping individuals overcome trauma and build resilience. I am passionate about providing a safe and compassionate space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

As an experienced EMDR trauma therapist, I believe that providing a safe space to meet your needs helps provide a healing environment and builds confidence.
You want to appear successful and like you have it "all together" but deep down you are struggling to feel confident and cope with traumatic experiences that have occurred in your life. You may be fed up with not feeling in control, not feeling safe or like you'll never heal from your past traumas. You might not even remember a time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to feel hopeful about life. You're ready to improve your relationships. Most of all, you're ready to feel calm and at peace; like your traumas don't define you.

I am trained in EMDR and IFS.
I can rattle on about my 30 years of experience and training and all of that but it’s not what drives my passion and love for this work. I believe in the healing power of relationship itself. Building trust and sharing human connection is what creates the safe bond that is necessary for processing pain, trauma, and all of the other stuff of life! How’s that for clinical jargon?! What I want to convey is love above all else, which you will find here in our work together. And not to worry, loving and receiving love can be hard especially if you've struggled in your life. Learning how to love will become your greatest superpower.

My integrative, strengths-based approach draws upon cognitive behavioral interventions, EMDR, and mindfulness to expand coping, grow adaptive thinking, and generalize healthy attachments.
At our core, we all seek to feel acceptance, love, and competence. When these basic needs are not being met in our life we often begin to feel lost, stuck, or alone. My compassionate, relationally informed practice allows me to join with you to understand what life looks and feels like through your lens. Together we will examine early attachments and relationships to discover learned core beliefs and how they impact the way you see yourself and relate to the world around you.
