Great to meet you!

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 26 years, providing compassionate and caring environment helping you make the changes you want. I have been a certified EMDR therapist since 2017 and believe in the power of effective change with this type of therapy. Getting to the root of things can have lasting effects for you and enable you to live the life you deserve.

I also believe it's important to have a good connection with your therapist. People only make progress when they feel a sense of trust in their provider. I want you to learn the tools to help yourself, become self reliant and feel capable.

I also am a Sports Mental Performance Specialist. While not covered by insurance, I am able to help you work through any slump, yip, or performance challenge. Athletes of all ages deal with various issues and using EMDR tools can help unblock your performance in all areas of life.

My approach to therapy

Having goals and a focus is paramount, as well as being able to discuss your needs. I want you to feel you are getting what you need out of our sessions. I will often check in on progress and ask what I can do differently and if we are covering what you want to be working on.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will be about building our relationship, you sharing about yourself and will identify our goals. You will walk away from our first session with tools to help you start to make the change you want. We can make effective change through our video sessions.

For Sports Performance work, we will do an initial assessment by video and then decide upon video sessions and work at fields. We will take an inventory of your blocks and barriers and you will learn body regulation tools to improve your focus.
