I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, caught in patterns they don’t fully understand, or affected by experiences from their past. I have multiple years of experience in nationally recognized substance-use and co-occurring treatment centers and particular experience with trauma, recovery, anxiety, and major life changes. I’m a trauma-informed, EMDR-trained therapist.
My style is conversational, collaborative, and honest. I use a trauma-informed approach and draw heavily from Motivational Interviewing to help you understand what you want to change and what may be getting in the way. Depending on your needs, our work may also include EMDR, mindfulness, experiential exercises, and practical coping strategies.
In our first session, I’ll want to hear your story and understand what brought you in. We’ll talk about what has been happening, what you would like to be different, and begin identifying some goals together. I think you’ll find I’m easy to talk to, genuinely curious about your experience, and interested in figuring things out with you rather than telling you how to live.
