Accepting New Clients! Being human is full of joys, heartbreaks, & lessons. To thrive, we need to navigate the tough stuff and understand and resolve the subconscious blocks that hold us back. Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or other emotional experiences that keep you from being at peace and living your life fully? If there is such a thing as a superpower, mine is that I'm able to see and feel people's best/higher self. This creates an environment of acceptance and warmth, helping my clients feel safe and able to dig into the work. I see clients aged 12 and up for individual and couples counseling.
I am trained in EMDR & ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) and love how effective they are, especially when integrated with IFS. They often resolve long-standing issues and it’s very exciting to see this! I've worked with a diverse group of people/issues over the years and am LGBTQ+ affirmative. I specialize in providing therapy to therapists.
I believe that people have what it takes to grow and change, and I am honored to be part of that process. I approach things in a holistic way that integrates and acknowledges mind, body, and spirit. As Roy T. Bennett says, "Believe in your infinite potential - your only limitations are those you set upon yourself." Let's explore your potential together!

I have been trained in multiple approaches over the years, but have found that EMDR and/or ART are a fantastic integration of those interventions and bring relief and resolution to the people I work with.
