Great to meet you!

Clients often tell me they appreciate my down-to-earth and compassionate style. I believe that healing begins with feeling seen and understood. I specialize in post traumatic stress disorder.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy through EMDR is grounded in compassion and collaboration. I use EMDR to help clients process painful memories and experiences that may still be affecting how they think, feel and respond today. EMDR allows us to work beyond talk therapy by engaging the brain's natural ability to heal and reprocess distressing memories, helping you move toward balance, confidence and relief.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and establish a foundation for our work together. I'll invite you to share what's bringing you in, your goals for therapy and any previous experiences you've had in counseling.
