Ever thought to yourself, "I should be able to handle this, it really isn't that bad compared to what others have gone through"? If it matters to you, it matters. Maybe you don't have someone in your life right now that you feel you can talk to about certain things. You aren't alone; many people experience this. I really enjoy meeting a wide variety of people because while you may learn a lot about yourself in therapy, I always end up learning something from you. I consider it a gift and a responsibility to be entrusted with what you need to talk about. I work primarily with adults.

At first glance, everything may appear fine, but deep down you're wrestling with the impact of your past trauma. You're stuck in difficult patterns, struggling to get through the week without breaking down. You're feeling frustrated with therapists who only address the surface of your issues. The thought of trusting yet another therapist is daunting, and the fear of what might come up during therapy often holds you back. Despite these fears, there's a part of you that truly wants to heal and longs to break free from your past.

My treatment philosophy is based on our capacity to heal. My primary means of treatment is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR reprocesses traumatic memories. Our brains use thought patterns to bring ideas, feelings and sensations to the forefront without discrimination. In instances of unresolved trauma, our ability to move forward in our lives is blocked, because thought patterns allow past trauma to continue to be replayed as if happening in the present. I collaborate with my clients via EMDR to reprocess trauma, allowing the brain to let natural healing occur.

I honor what makes us unique and appreciate each individual experience. I believe we want to be our best selves and find happiness and enjoyment in our lives. Sometimes discovering what is hindering this growth is found in a supportive therapeutic relationship. I am a Clinical Therapist with over 20 years of experience working with individuals healing from trauma and couples navigating relationship issues. I believe in the significance of aligning the mind and body and find that awareness of our somatic experiencing and parts (IFS) to be incredibly helpful in increasing feelings of connection, self-compassion and trust in Self.
