I am a psychologist who specializes in the treatment of trauma-related disorders and sexual functioning. I have received specialized training in a variety of treatment modalities, including EMDR, Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have also completed specialized certification in the area of sex therapy to address difficulties in sexual function and its impact on other areas of your life.
In therapy, I draw on my training in approaches that are backed by research. However, I also want to connect on a human level and believe that there is immense meaning that can come from being seen by another person. While I often work from a trauma-based perspective, I know that you are more than your past. Also - your life doesn’t just stop because you’re in therapy. We will work to understand the impact of your past while also applying insights and tools to improve your day-to-day experience.
With clients, I work to develop a strong relationship built through open communication, humor, and kindness. Clients find me to be easy going, approachable, and sincere in my care about their growth and progress. I love being a part of clients’ “aha” moments when they start to better understand and have compassion for themselves and I hope to be a part of yours.
