Great to meet you!

Areas of focus in my work include: PTSD, Highly Sensitive Persons (see www.hsperson.org for the self-test), Trauma, Stress, Anxiety, Relationships, and Life Transitions. If your response to stress is overwhelming and causes you emotional and physical suffering, there is something you can do about it. Together, we will find which tools can best help to empower your ability to create real change and build a system of support that will nurture your mind, body, and spirit toward a more optimal state of being.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is based in Narrative therapy practices. There are techniques I can share with you to help change your response to stress. If you have experienced trauma, EMDR can be a highly effective treatment approach.

What you can expect from me

As we begin our work together, I will be especially interested in understanding your unique life experience and how you respond to the challenges you face. From there, we can identify which tools and strategies are the best fit and most effective for you. Together, we will identify the priority areas of focus to address first and build a treatment plan around your goals for therapy.
