Trauma can make us feel lost, hopeless, and disconnected from ourselves and others. You might notice that you keep falling into harmful patterns. Even though you want to form meaningful relationships, you might push people away or end up in relationships that cause pain. You want to understand your reactions and feel more in control of your life. You're ready to make better choices about treating yourself and others. You want to break free from cycles of trauma and abuse. You believe there’s something better for you-you need help to find it.
Clients come to me first and foremost because of the safety, compassion, and warmth they feel in our sessions, which are necessary ingredients for trauma recovery. In sessions, you will feel deeply heard and respected. I honor your pace and create a true partnership in your healing journey. We can create a plan on 'where to go' keeping your safety in mind.
As a trauma survivor myself, I honour the step you’re taking. As a certified EMDR therapist, I can help you use the wisdom of your body and create new experiences in your healing process. You don’t have to continue feeling broken and damaged, and you don’t have to do it alone. Visit my website and schedule a session. I can’t wait to hear from you.

I begin with an attachment-focused EMDR intake to understand your experiences. My sessions may feel different from traditional talk therapy, as we also work with the nervous system. I may use gentle EMDR tools such as light bar and/or pulsers during sessions. We move at your pace, helping you feel more grounded, present, and safe.
