Great to meet you!

Research shows that the therapeutic alliance is the most important aspect of successful treatment. I believe an authentic relationship and connection is the foundation of therapy. I welcome you to a safe and non-judgmental environment using an integrative approach---tailoring my interventions to the presenting issues and the individual.

My approach to therapy

I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My specialty is helping clients find healing who have been impacted by trauma or adverse events. I utilize EMDR therapy, talk therapy, informed Internal Family Systems, CBT, DBT as well as mindfulness and somatic approaches.

What you can expect from me

When life seems confusing or just too much, it's good to have someone to talk to for comfort, relief, or to just ask the hard questions. If you struggle with anxiety, depression or the difficulties of PTSD/Complex PTSD, I invite you to come sit for awhile, unburden, and learn how to approach those tough emotions using interventions that are going to best assist you and your needs.
