Great to meet you!

Hello! I have 15 years of experience working with depression, anxiety, and trauma in various work settings. I specialize in trauma, ADHD and Perinatal Mental Health. I am trained in EMDR and am very passionate about continuing to learn all I can in these areas.

My approach to therapy

I focus on using EMDR, parts work and somatic resourcing with many of my clients, which strengthens internal understanding and awareness. Understanding is the first step in the ability to slow down the turbulence in your body and mind. We work together in building your toolbox of coping mechanisms. EMDR helps turn down the volume on many negative symptoms that are impacting your life.

What you can expect from me

I understand that change is difficult! I will continually meet you where you are in the change cycle. Your journey is unique. Understanding your "sticking places" and your places of strength are helpful areas to explore in therapy. I will help you find your foundation and move at a pace that feels safe and secure.
