Great to meet you!

Trauma Informed, EMDR and IFS Trained, Person Centered Therapy with 10+ years of professional experience, and many years of personal growth.

We all are unique, and valuable. I believe that effective treatment starts with a strong therapeutic alliance, collaborative partnership, and accessing my client's personal strengths. Using an eclectic approach to therapy, I tailor treatment by integrating elements of Trauma Informed CBT, EMDR, IFS, MI, and DBT.

My approach to therapy

I strive to meet clients where they are, and determine together where they want to go. A collaborative approach helps to set realistic goals that are attainable and measurable. My specializations focus around trauma, big T or little t, and how it has helped to shape how we show up today. Only then can we choose to be different and identify a new path of self-discovery.

What you can expect from me

My client will have an individual treatment plan that will outline specific goals, and the achievable steps to work toward making this a reality. It is a process, a journey. I am honored to travel with you.
