I am an advocate for diversity, equity and inclusion for all. LGBTQIA+ affirming.

Curious about the most effective treatment I've seen in my career? It's Accelerated Resolution Therapy. ART is an eye-movement protocol that doesn't require disclosing details of the adverse event. Your brain reprocesses memories to reduce their emotional and physical impact. ART provides long-term relief by addressing root causes of distress. Like EMDR but faster: single-incident events are often resolved in 1-2 sessions. More chronic or complicated issues usually resolve within 5 sessions.

First we'll build rapport and trust as you share important information about yourself and your goals. I strive to help you find a balance between acceptance and change- to accept yourself as you are while also recognizing where growth is needed. Over time, we'll work on developing self-compassion (treating oneself with kindness, understanding and acceptance). You'll also develop skills for managing uncomfortable emotions, communicating assertively and setting boundaries.
