Do you want to make a big change in your life? EMDR Therapy intensives give you the opportunity to spend several hours a day, for 1-10 days in close proximity, with one therapist, focusing on your healing. We have all gone through hard things in life and often have internalized negative messages and memories from those times. These can block us from living the lives we really want. EMDR is a therapeutic approach that can heal those stuck memories and free up your energy for growth and new ways of living.

Sometimes people get stuck in patterns that make life feel unsatisfying and empty. Are you feeling sad, worried, or just struggling with life balance in general? Perhaps you are experiencing relationship issues, parenting issues, or have a painful past event that you can't seem to let go. Psychotherapy allows you the space to understand how your past and present thoughts and experiences create the unhealthy patterns that become ingrained.

I have enjoyed clinical social work with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings. I support individual and couples in a journey of discovery and growth with curiosity and humility coupled with training and experience.

Profound healing occurs in relationship and requires compassion and collaboration and a warm, safe, supportive environment to unpack and explore your feelings, experiences and needs, to create the life you want and deserve. LCSW supervision available.

My specialty is working with individuals navigating significant changes in their life - loss, identity formation, exploring sexuality, navigating divorce, or becoming a new parent. My approach draws from anti-racist, trauma informed, psychodynamic, systems-focused frameworks.
