Words can be hard! Finding the "right" ones or knowing where to start can be a struggle. My goal is to provide a therapeutic experience that goes beyond words. My approach to therapy is grounded in meeting people where they are, without judgment or preconceptions. I understand that every client is unique, with their own set of experiences, challenges, and strengths. I prioritize tailoring counseling sessions to meet my clients' developmental, emotional, and communication needs. Incorporating playful and creative activities into therapy can enhance the therapeutic experience and offer new avenues for self-expression and growth.

A Traumatic experience is like an injury and can have a long lasting effect and impact the way you perceive and interact in the world. Individuals experiencing trauma may have difficulty regulating emotions such as anger, anxiety, sadness and easily feel overwhelmed, numb and shut down. Trauma not only affects our relationship with ourselves but impacts our relationship with others. I am also a TFMR Mom that had a Stillbirth. I am passionate about serving other parents who have experienced TFMR, Stillbirth and Child loss at any point. The grief that accompanies this loss is tremendous and isolating. I am here to help.

Remember when life seemed so much easier? Your responsibilities and pressures didn’t used to feel so overwhelming, and you felt carefree! Relationships with friends and family felt untouchable. Thoughts didn’t swirl out of control, and you could focus on what needed to be done. And feeling lonely wasn’t something you felt often because you felt seen and heard. You have tried to "fix" things on your own but you are still struggling! You feel more lonely and more isolated than ever, and friendships feel unhealthy, and your family doesn’t understand you.

Seen as pillars of society, as a physician you may feel you have no one to turn to right now. The pre-pandemic statistics are especially upsetting: 29% of resident physicians experienced depression; 16% of emergency physicians met the criteria for a post-traumatic stress disorder diagnosis, & doctors have a higher risk of death by suicide compared to other professions. We stand to lose 1 doctor a day to suicide. The pandemic has been especially challenging for physicians, their families, & the medical community in general: doctors are experiencing burnout from new challenges they are encountering. Burnout is not a ride of passage.

Feeling lost and angry? Struggling with feeling triggered and weird things coming up? Feeling out of control and at the mercy of avoiding your triggers- or just avoiding most of life in general? Doing "that talk therapy thing" for years and seeing no results and kind of actually getting more triggered by talking about it? Still want to address your triggers and trauma? Clients that seek me out tend to be adult women of color of all ages struggling with change and identity, anxiety, social and financial worries, depression, symptoms of ADHD and autism. Results come from YOUR process, interpretation and YOUR power as a result of EMDR.
