Happy you are here! I am a dedicated therapist specializing in trauma therapy for teens and adults up to age 65. With a passion for guiding individuals through their healing journeys, I utilize an eclectic approach, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Somatic Experiencing, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). My approach is direct and straightforward—I believe in addressing issues head-on rather than sugar-coating. I create a supportive environment where vulnerability and accountability are key components of the healing process.
Here, you'll find a safe space to explore experiences and emotions, fostering growth and transformation. Whether you're dealing with past traumas or current challenges, I'm here to help you navigate through them with compassion and clarity. Together, we'll work towards healing and empowerment, allowing you to reclaim control over your life and well-being.
I offer a 30 minute free consultation to all new clients. Feel free to reach out to me via phone call, text message, or email to see if my services might be a good fit for you. It takes courage to reach out and ask for help, just know you will be met with full acceptance and vulnerability.

I believe that most dysfunction stems from some form of trauma experienced. Whether it is from your early attachments or more recent relationships, or even a unique event, it is more than likely playing a part in your current struggles. My goal is to help individuals process through the emotions connected to those traumas to create resilience and autonomy.

I often use techniques from Acceptance and Commitment therapy to help clients accept who they are right in this moment to eliminate feelings of shame. Once my clients have that acceptance, we can start regulating our nervous system with somatic techniques and trauma focused coping skills to steer away from those unhelpful defense mechanisms and process difficult emotions authentically.
