I believe the most effective therapy is the sincere connection between the individual and the therapist. Many people seek counselling hoping to lessen anxiety and depression and to obtain emotional comfort, self-awareness, and peace. Articulating the factors that contribute to anxiety and depression helps to process difficult emotions. I provide an interactive, supportive, and empathic approach to therapy in order for individuals to feel comfortable to pursue these therapy goals.

I provide EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy to help individuals process traumatic experiences and memories. This therapy addresses the emotional, intellectual, and somatic ways one holds onto traumatic experiences. Negative thoughts can be processed and relief from anxiety can occur in a safe and accepting environment.

I've been a certified social worker since 2008 and my experience is extensive and diverse. I'm a therapist who works with individuals who have experienced childhood or more recent traumatic events. I provide a psychoanalytic (mind) and neurosomatic (body) therapeutic approach to processing trauma.

I often use EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help clients process and provide closure with past traumas or negative life experiences. Speaking aloud in a safe space and feeling validated about one's life experience is the starting point. After clients participate in EMDR Therapy, they report feeling more calm/neutral and confident once their trauma is processed.
