Great to meet you!

My work is grounded in a deep commitment to supporting clients through healing and self-discovery. I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can process their experiences, build resilience, and develop healthier coping strategies. As an EMDR-trained clinician, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients work through traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress, and shift unhelpful patterns. I also integrate CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing to increase insight, strengthen coping skills, and empower meaningful change at each client’s pace.

My approach to therapy

As an EMDR-trained clinician, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients work through traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress, and shift unhelpful patterns. I also integrate CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing to increase insight, strengthen coping skills, and empower meaningful change at each client’s pace.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, clients can expect a welcoming, non-judgmental space where we begin getting to know each other and what brings them in. We’ll explore current concerns, relevant background, and what they’re hoping to get out of therapy. I also focus on understanding their strengths and experiences so we can start building a personalized approach that feels safe and collaborative. Clients are encouraged to go at their own pace and there is no pressure to share anything they’re not ready for.
