Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and congratulations to you on making this crucial step towards your wellness.

I have specialized training in trauma treatment (EMDR and PC) and suicide prevention. I am highly adept at working with those struggling with anxiety, trauma and mood disorders. I utilize a wide range of modalities in my practice, but tend to lean towards psychoeducational, mindfulness based and trauma therapies.

We all experience the challenges and changes that life throws our way. Maybe you are ready to address these challenges, but feel intimidated by the idea of therapy (you, baring your soul while a stranger with a notepad occasionally says, “mhmm”). Therapy doesn’t have to feel like a one-sided conversation; it is about working together as a team to achieve your goals. This is a space to let it all out; to cry and swear and laugh and learn. And most importantly, learn about yourself and your space in the world. Come in. Sit down. Let’s get real.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, grief, or just managing the daily grind? Are you finding it hard to manage your emotions, or do you just feel like you are lost? Maybe you feel exhausted at the end of a long day or are constantly feeling overwhelmed by life and it is hard to get started on the things you need to do. Maybe you are sick of living up to the standards of society or of someone else. Sometimes it seems just getting through the day is a triumph (and maybe it is).

Life is tough. Pain, both physical and mental, can overwhelm us, and we can lose hope. But, there is always hope, always strength, always acceptance. If you feel overwhelmed and in pain, then its time to get to work. Together we can navigate through suffering, heal wounds, experience growth, and find wisdom and meaning everywhere.
