Are you feeling triggered by recent or past trauma? Are you experiencing a big change (relationship, career, move, loss)? Going through a tough time? I specialize in life transitions and trauma resolution. I am an expert at helping people feel heard and understood. We can work together via video, telephone, in office, or in nature while we walk and talk. I specialize in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Emotion Focused Therapy for couples and individuals.

We will work together to find comfort in the therapy journey, identify how your body, brain, and emotional health are doing, and how each is impacted by your environment (for example your home life, work life, and social life). We will build a plan for therapy together that best fits your unique, individual needs.

I believe that all humans have innate worth and deserve to be treated as such. We all deserve to have support when we need it. Reach out today to see how I can help - we will chat about your goal(s) for therapy, what the therapy journey will look like, and book you in for a session to get you feeling better.
