Are you highly dependable and caring yet you wonder privately why you feel anxiety, emptiness, self-doubt and burn out? Do you have a critical inner voice and a fear of asking for help? Do you often feel responsible for other's emotions and question if you are, "too emotional" or "too sensitive"? These feelings and so many others like them have been described by many of my clients and what I specialize in. it is my passion to work alongside you to achieve the peace you deserve. I will help you navigate your complex past and lived memories with the goal of recalling these past scenes in a way that they will no longer impact you.
I specialize in EMDR, somatic body work, and cognitive restructuring, and my top priority is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where all parts are welcome. Clients often express their appreciation for my easy going nature and the validation they receive during our sessions. I know how scary sharing your story can be and I am here to support you.
You don't have to keep wondering why you feel the way you do. Together we can explore your story, identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck and create a path towards healing. We will rediscover your emotions and needs that were likely silenced and build boundaries and self-compassion in a safe, genuine, authentic and non-judgmental setting.

I am a trained EMDR practitioner with over 10 years of practice. Client's tell me they are surprised at how relaxed they feel once they begin the treatment and how soothing the somatic work is on their nervous system with this trauma-informed tool.

I have found that often client's feel anger and depression as common responses to past trauma and EMDR is an effective tool to dive into the root and core issue of our past in a way that often talk therapy can miss or take too long to get at what our body is holding onto. Most client's are surprised by the soothing nature of my voice and report a gradual lifting of symptoms to support wellbeing.

I often use EMDR in my practice as the feedback and effects of this therapy have been astounding for clients. In our first session, we will explore your goals through my assessment and decide what will fit best for you. I will provide you with a toolbox of coping strategies that you can use for the rest of your life. It's okay not to be okay, but it's not okay to stay there.
