Great to meet you!

I am a Marriage/Family therapist who works with couples & individuals struggling with trauma. In my experience working with families & couples, I have found that issues resulting in relationship stress stem from a lack of strong communication skills between the participants & individual issues stem from unresolved traumas that impact a person’s ability to function. I have successfully assisted clients to heal from sexual & abuse traumas, medical trauma, relationship & workplace traumas

My approach to therapy

I focus on strengthening communication skills & addressing traumas through EMDR, IFS, CBT, family structural therapies & DBT to promote healing & functionality.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to be validated and challenged to change negative beliefs about themselves. I strive to help my clients achieve a sense of greater sense of self and a positive outlook for their futures.
