About

I believe that you are doing the very best you can with the pain, traumas, and losses that life has brought your way — And I recognize your desire to feel better and to find more peace and joy in your life. My approach to therapy blends a compassionate and steady relationship with advanced training in evidence-based approaches, including EMDR. I often work with folks who are worn out from being stuck in patterns of coping and dealing that are no longer working. Alone, it's hard to get unstuck. Let's partner together help you heal from old hurts and become rooted in new patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating to others. View 3 Photos

I am a trauma-focused, relationship-centered, and strengths-based counselor. I work with older teens, college-aged young adults, & adult women, most of whom are seeking healing after experiencing trauma(s), loss, difficult relationships, or anxiety. I am EMDR-Certified and incorporate attachment and somatic approaches. I also provide EMDR Therapy Intensives.

Trauma causes our minds and bodies to get stuck in the threats and patterns of the past. Anxiety can freeze us with anticipation and worry for the future. Together in therapy, we will collaborate to help you see your strengths and create space to become more rooted and grounded in each present moment, with a new capacity to live every day meaningfully.
