I am a Board Certified Art Therapist, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and trained in using EMDR with clients.
I believe in each client’s potential and unique creativity. Your mind and body are designed to heal. I seek to help clients connect and return to the natural and healthy design of rest and digest and grow coping tools when faced with being in a fight or flight mode. Hope is a critical force in the healing process. “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all the darkness,” Desmond Tutu. Being able to connect to the present with honesty, transparency, and non-judgment is a key ingredient to understanding oneself and embracing the healing journey.

Everywhere you look everyone seems filled with joy, but you are filled with dread. Going through the motions, putting on a smiling face, covering up that you're barely handling your responsibilities has left you physically and emotionally exhausted. Your life has become an act of pretending everything is fine. But, you know the truth: everything is not fine. You want to change, to feel that spark of joy again, to live life fully and authentically. With each new year, you swear this time will be different. You'll accomplish your goals, you'll do things differently. You'll finally be happy. But how?

In case no one has told you, I am proud of your brave.

I have found that my love for adventure and exploration has bled into the work I like to do in therapy. I struggle with "surface level" in the same way I have always struggled with small talk. I want to go deeper into what has shaped the lives of others and how this has impacted their current level of functioning. Ideally, I want to work with people who are interested in doing the same. The ones who are ready to take the ride and see what lies beneath. Within us is an entire universe of possibility, you just have to be open to it.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
